With 23 years in the industry, Lum Hair operates as a direct hair extension manufacturer and wholesale supplier specializing in making Butterfly Weft Hair Extensions. Crafted with the same advanced technology as Genius Weft but upgraded, our Butterfly Weft boasts an ultra-flat profile—just 0.8mm thin although 2pcs of Genius Weft—so it’s almost impossible to detect once installed.
Reinforced precision holes are integrated into the ultra-lightweight base, engineered specifically for the “Butterfly Method” of application. The hole can be set in the PU side if PU plus Genius Weft Butterfly Weft; the hole is set in the middle if 2pcs of Genius Weft. This design ensures maximum scalp breathability, along with a more secure, comfortable fit—no bulky feel that comes from traditional hand-tied weft. It’s made for stylists who prioritize both speed and precision, and perfect for clients wanting salon-quality hair without the long installation time. Lum Hair Butterfly Weft is lightweight and flexible, and cut down install time without compromising on quality and style.
What sets this weft apart is the transparent mesh positioning its center. Pre-punched holes are spaced evenly across this mesh, making installation smoother than ever.
Stylists can cut these butterfly wefts without worrying about them unraveling—that’s the beauty of the strong stitching. This unlocks endless possibilities: face-framing layers, shorter pieces near the temples, or blended rows for extra density.
Thanks to the ultra-thin, hole design, these wefts are incredibly lightweight. Clients always comment on how light they feel—no “helmet head,” no scalp soreness at all. They reduce tension & strain on natural hair and the scalp, which makes them perfect for anyone with fine or thin hair.
Gone are the days of visible tracks. The thin base and seamless application mean all-directional undetectability, whether hair is high ponytail or down ponytail. It always blends flawlessly with natural hair.
High-quality butterfly wefts can be reused multiple times, and they offer a range of secure installation options—sewing, beads, clip. The micro-bead method is the most popular one method, stylists just pull a small loop of the client’s natural hair through the pre-punched hole and secure it with a micro-bead. No braiding cornrows, no sewing needles—this “Butterfly” method simplifies the whole process. It creates a secure anchor point that makes weight evenly-distributed, damage-free to natural hair. Application are also faster and more affordable; the flatter, easier-to-handle design saves time on each installation. That makes them cost-effective for clients and profitable for salons.

Q: Is Lum Hair a trading company or a hair extension factory?
A: Lum Hair is a direct China hair extension factory and manufacturer—we produce our hair extensions and control quality strictly and can offer lower prices than trading companies (no extra fees added on).
Q: What’s the difference between ombre and balayage?
A: Ombre is a horizontal color transition from dark at the roots to light at the ends. Balayage is a technique that mimics a sun-kissed highlight look, with a softer, more vertical blend. Our Ombre Balayage colors combine both, giving a rooted look with a natural, dimensional, fashion-looking finish.
Q: Can I dye these extensions?
A: Yes, you can—they’re made of 100% virgin human hair, so you can darken the color. However, since they’re already dyed to achieve the order color, we don’t recommend bleaching them further; it's possible to damage the hair.
Q: Do you offer wholesale discounts for salons and human hair weave wholesale distributors?
A: Absolutely. We’re a human hair extensions manufacturer in China, and we offer bulk discounts, membership programs, and private label packaging for salon owners, weave human hair distributors, and virgin wholesale hair vendors. Just reach out to our team for more details.
Q: Is the Butterfly Weft heavy to wear?
A: Not at all. The Genius Weft base is thin and super lightweight, and the micro-bead install method distributes weight evenly across the scalp. Clients with fine hair often tell us it’s the most comfortable extension they’ve ever worn.
