Hair Weaving
December 23, 2008
Now-a-days, various kinds of hair style techniques have come in the market. Among various techniques to style the hair, hair weaving is also a popular one. In case of hair weaving, the hair are permanently attached to the scalp. To get hair weaving done, one needs to follow some basis hair weaving techniques.
Hair weaving is a process in which hair may be clumped together in wefts or small bunches. The threads are used to tie the hair together in wefts. There are two ways to create wefts. One can either create wefts through hands or through machines. However machine made wefts are more popular, as there is a risk of raising the coat of production in case of hand made wefts.
One can either opt for fine, medium or heavy wefts. The most common of them are the medium wefts. Some people prefer to use hand made wefts, as they do not shed much early than in case of machine made wefts and are much lighter compared to the machine made ones.
Bulk hair is also an important component in hair weaving techniques. With the help of bulk hair, one can have stand bonding and braiding techniques of hair weaving. Another technique of hair weaving is basic cord tracking technique, where thin cords are attached to the scalp and, with the help of threads, bonding is strengthened.
The cords must be placed as close as possible to the scalp and should give a natural look. Now, the main weave is attached to the scalp and the natural hair of the individual hides the initially placed cords. This technique of hair weaving goes well with different types of hair, whether curly or straight.
Another popular technique of hair weaving is the invisible hair weaving, where the hair is braided onto the natural hair of an individual, near the scalp, thus avoiding the use of potent chemicals. The major drawback here is that the style does not last long and frequent modifications are required to maintain it.
Another thing to be noted is that hair weaving is more common in men than in women, as they tend to lose hair faster than women. Women may also opt for this technique, in case there is a problem of hair loss due to certain medical conditions.
