Beaudee 101: Sew-In Weft Hair Extensions

What are Sew-In Weft Hair Extensions?

Sew-in weft hair extensions are a popular method for adding length, volume, and versatility to your natural hair. This technique involves hand-sewing weft hair extensions into a beaded foundation created along your scalp. Unlike traditional methods that require heat or glue, sew-in wefts offer a more gentle and secure installation.

The key benefits of sew-in weft extensions are:

Natural Appearance: Sew-in wefts lay flat against your scalp, providing a natural look and feel.
Customizable Volume: The number of wefts used can be customized to achieve your desired level of volume.
Versatile Styling: Enjoy a wide range of hairstyles without damaging your natural hair.
Minimal Maintenance: With proper care, sew-in wefts can last for 8-12 months. Check out our aftercare guide for more information!

How Does the Sew-In Weft Process Work?

This modern method of sew-in extensions is technically demanding but highly fashionable. It involves hand-sewing either hand-tied or machine-made wefts to a foundation created by linking your natural hair with small silicone-lined beads. This process results in a secure base without the need for heat or glue. Multiple wefts are layered and stitched together in rows to achieve a customized, voluminous look. While you may feel the extensions more with this method, they are less noticeable in appearance. I love to say you can feel them more but see them less. Because the wide wefts blend seamlessly with your natural hair, you can add density without taking up excessive space. This luxurious application delivers bombshell results!
