Use a thick set of extensions
You will do real justice to your short hair if you use a thick set of extensions. Of all the types of extensions, clip-in extensions are better for short hair.

Pin the bottom hair for easy installation
To highlight the extensions and to give a natural look to your hair, make sure to secure the bottom hair by using pins. Otherwise, the natural strands may look odd if they come out of the extensions irregularly. The whole hairstyle may look out of place. So, always secure your natural hair, especially at the bottom by pinning it properly.
For a neat look, comb the hair so that the hair is smooth, and part the bottom hair separately and secure it using a thin pin.
Mix and match colour for increased volume
While selecting the colour of the hair extensions, make sure it matches the colour of your natural hair. Don’t go for the same shade of your natural hair but rather choose lighter shades so that it creates the illusion of having more hair volume. And if you have a lighter shade of natural hair, go with contrast colours that match your hair and skin colour.
Style the roots for an easy grip
Pinning hair extensions to fine and thin hair is difficult and there is a risk of slippage. To make sure the hair extensions are attached properly, tease your hair back by combing the hair so that the extensions stay and put together in your natural hair.
Make sure to add face-framing pieces
You use hair extensions so that the added hair improves your face’s beauty and looks beautiful on your head. It should overall elevate your grace by adding confidence. So, to achieve that, you can add face-framing pieces to your front face. If you don’t have natural hair to do that, you can attach clip-in extensions near the forehead so that you have beautiful face-framing pieces.
Wave and curl your hair
Some of the fun and easy ways to change your hair is by curling and waving your hair. Add curls to the extensions by using a proper curling iron so that it adds more volume and stability to your natural hair. You can even increase the length of the extensions so that your short hair looks longer and fuller. On the other hand, you can style your short hair extensions so that theyblend with your natural hair and make your face look beautiful.
Styling your short hair even after adding the extensions is easy and you can do it even more easily by dividing your hair into 3 or more parts.
Conclusion:
People with short hair can have numerous styles just like long hair people do. By using extensions and proper styling, you can achieve a beautiful hairstyle that changes your whole appearance. Make sure to follow the tips properly and take time in attaching the extensions so that you don’t face any disturbances throughout the day.
