What Hair Length do I choose?

Finding the length that fits just you is as individual as finding a colour. The result you are aiming for must go hand in hand with your individual starting point. A certain length can look differently from person to person, as we all have different heights and proportions. Here, we share some tips and tricks to help you choose a length, so that you can find extensions that fit you perfectly.

Individual starting point

The taller you are, the shorter your extensions will appear and vice versa. Start off by taking a measuring tape, hold it next to the top of your ear and measure 30-70 cm downwards so that you can see where the extensions would end on you.

To get an idea of what the lengths will look like we have illustrated it on AI models of 1,60 m and 1,75 m. Please consider your body's proportions also influence where different lengths will end.

Most importantly do not attach hair extensions that are more than double the length of your own hair as this might strain your hair.

Golden Rules to find your Hair Length

Start with shorter lengths

Are you trying extensions for the first time? Then follow some of our golden rules. Try out shorter lengths first, he longer the hair is the more care and maintenence it needs.

Longer hair requires more extensions

The longer hair you want, the more extensions you are going to need for the them to look as natural as possible. If you want your hair to be longer than 50 cm, we usually recommend 8-10 packages of tape-on hair or Keratin Extensions, or two Clip-ins sets Medium Volume. Let the amount of packages guide your decision on what length to achieve.

Not more than double the length

A rule of thumb is that your extensions should not be longer than double the length of your own hair. For example, if your hair is 25 cm long (measured from your parting), then your extensions should be max. 50 cm so that it is possible to create a natural transition between your hair and the extensions without putting too much weight on your own hair.

30 cm / 11,8 inches

40 cm / 15,8 inches

50 cm / 19,7 inches

60 cm / 23,7 inches

70 cm / 27,6 inches

Count in a haircut or two

Usually, extensions need to be cut to blend as well as possible with your own hair (If your own hair is cut very straight, you might need to cut your own hair a bit too, for the transition to look as seamless as possible).

The tips of your extensions need to be cut occasionally, too. If you are in between two different lengths, it is usually better to take the longer one so that you can have it cut a couple of times. To get your extensions cut, please consult with a hairdresser.

Combine colours or methods

Do you want to combine different colours or methods? Chose from our wide selection of hair extensions but have in mind we don't offer all colours in all lengths. If you want to mix different kinds of tape-in hair or want to buy a Medium Volume and a Light Volume set of Clip-ins, we recommend double-checking which lengths we offer in both colours and methods first.
