Women are rarely satisfied with their own hair, so they are looking for ways to increase their length and thickness. Overhead curls are an excellent alternative to building. They easily and imperceptibly fasten, are convenient in a sock and care, help to feel more confidently and more attractively.
Types of overhead strands
To be transformed in just a couple of minutes, you need to buy a few hair pieces. Their cost differs depending on the material of manufacture. Overhead hair locks can be natural or artificial. In the first case, the price is high, because they look as natural and durable as possible (with correct care). Synthetic analogues quickly deteriorate and lose a satisfactory appearance, but they are easier to change due to low cost.
Overlays of natural hair
The considered devices are made mainly of European type of raw materials, sometimes other material variants are encountered. Natural overhead strands are produced with 2 types of fastenings:
- Pigtail - the hair rods are neatly woven at the top into a thin dense strip.
- Hairpins - strands are sewn onto a fabric with several flexible snaps "click-clack".
The first specified type of product is non-removable, therefore it is worn for a long time and is updated as the spit grows. Overhead strands of natural hair on the hairpin can easily be removed and put on again. This is very convenient, especially if the external curls are not used for everyday activities, but only on the occasion.
