Hand Tied Weft Extensions

Every Hand Tied Weft Extension is fully handcrafted; Lum Hair weave each hair strand delicately to make the weft ultra-thin and flexible, so it sits flush against the scalp. Meticulous selection and weaving of each strand ensure maximum invisibility—perfect for high-end salons and stylists who demand top-tier quality. This artisanal craftsmanship is what makes the natural finish stand out, though we don’t recommend cutting the wefts—doing so might cause shedding. Full cuticle hand-tied wefts from Lum Hair blend durability with comfort, helping you elevate your clients’ experience with luxurious extensions that don’t compromise on elegance for longevity.

Why Clients Opt for Hand Tied Weft Extensions?

These extensions are hand-woven into wefts, and most installation methods start with placing a beaded row—then the weft gets sewn onto it using nylon thread. This detailed process is perfect for anyone wanting more volume and length with a natural finish, without putting excessive tension on the scalp or natural hair.

- Delivers a more striking final look

- No adhesive needed, shortening removal time significantly

- Turns your short hair to long lengths while keeping the look natural

- Deep conditioning treatments are still doable

- No sliding of the attachment point, unlike keratin bonds or tape-ins

How to Install Hand-Tied Weft Extensions?

- Start by shampooing the hair thoroughly—skip the conditioner. As clean, dry, and unconditioned hair is a must for secure attachment.

- Next, section the hair into horizontal parts, working from the nape of the neck up. The number of sections depends on how much coverage you need and the amount of hair being added. Then create a track: section off a small horizontal portion of natural hair close to the scalp—this acts as the base for attaching the hand-tied weft.

- Once the hair is sectioned, place the hand-tied weft (a narrow pre-hand-sewn strip of hair). Pick a weft that matches the natural hair’s color and texture—position it under the sectioned hair, align with the part, then sew it onto the natural hair using a needle and thread.

- Secure the weft with a looping and knotting technique: use the needle and thread to stitch through the weft and folded natural hair, repeating this along the entire length of the weft.

This method is way safer than sew-ins or gluing, and it lasts longer too—usually 4 to 6 months with proper care. Once all wefts are attached, comb through the hair to blend natural strands and extensions seamlessly.
