This guide covers practical care, styling tips, and application basics so your hand tied wefts stay seamless and long lasting.

What makes hand tied wefts special

Hand tied wefts are sewn by hand into a thin, flexible band that sits flat against the scalp. Because the weft is low-profile, it blends exceptionally well, allowing for natural movement and minimal bulk. These wefts are ideal for clients seeking volume and length without the weight or visibility of heavier methods.

Application basics

• Section hair precisely to ensure even placement and avoid tension.

• Use small, secure stitches and avoid over-tightening to reduce stress on the natural hair.

• Space rows according to the client’s hair density and lifestyle needs.

• Secure the final row with a reinforcement stitch to maintain longevity.

Styling and daily care pointers

• Use a gentle, sulfate-free shampoo and a lightweight conditioner to keep the wefts soft without loosening the bonds.

• Detangle from ends to roots using a wide-tooth comb or looped brush to prevent pulling at the base.

• Avoid heavy oils at the roots which can slide the wefts or make them appear greasy.

• Sleep on a silk or satin pillowcase and tie hair loosely to reduce friction and tangling.

Maintenance schedule

• Recommend a professional check every 6 to 8 weeks to adjust placement, move up wefts if necessary, and inspect natural hair health.

• Encourage clients to avoid excessive heat styling near the base of the wefts and to use heat protectant when styling.

• Plan for periodic removal and deep conditioning treatments to preserve both the wefts and the client’s natural hair.

Common troubleshooting

• If matting appears at the crown, check row spacing and brushing technique.

• For slippage, verify that stitches are secure and that the client’s natural hair is healthy enough to support extensions.

• If the client experiences discomfort, loosen tension immediately and reassess placement.
