How to Replace Clips on Hair Extensions

Thread in a similar colour to your set of hair extensions
A needle
Scissors
Spare clips (if broken) again, in a similar colour to your extensions

BEFORE YOU GET STARTED:

Measure and cut roughly 50cm of thread and thread through the eye of the needle till both ends meet.
Tie 2-3 knots at the ends of the thread and cut off any excess.

SEWING THE CLIPS:

Take the new clip and align in place. Ensure the holes of the clip are aligned with the wefts as best as possible for the more secure hold.
If you're starting with a side clip, sew 2-3 through each hole around the side of the weft. Always ensure the thread is on top of the needle and is wrapping around the side of the piece.
Once you've sewn through each hole, tie a few knots to secure into place.
Then, to attach the other side and to sew on clip in the middle of the weft, start sewing through the top hole and use an under and over motion.
Repeat a few times and tie to secure in place.
Reinforce the hold by sewing a few loops over the middle section of the clip and tie to secure.

And there you have it! Exactly how to replace clip on hair extensions.
