Step 2: Begin with a 3-clip weft

Place your fingers below your ears or on 2 sides of the hairline, or use a comb to start separating your hair at this position. Gather the top layer of your hair into a bun or secure it with clips.

Take out a 3-clip weft and brush it from the bottom to dangle any knots before clipping it into your hair.

Measure the weft with your head to make sure it’s length and size will blend and fit properly with the parted hair, Next, determine the middle of your head and clip in the center clip into your hair at the root. Ensure that the clip is secure as close to roots as possible since it will prevent the clip from slipping off. Simply tease it to make sure you have done correctly. After clipping in the middle, clip the left one then the right one.
