How To Choose The Best Hair Extensions For Your Thin Hair
We get it—thin hair can absolutely be styled beautifully, but sometimes you just crave that extra volume and bounce. The good news? You don’t have to give up on that dream. The right hair extensions for thin hair are out there—and they won’t damage your natural strands.
There’s a common misconception that all hair extensions cause breakage. So, can people with thin or fine hair really wear extensions?
Yes! With premium, natural hair extensions, even the finest hair can be transformed into a full, glamorous look—without compromising your hair health. The best extensions for thin hair are designed to add volume without damage. Let’s explore the most suitable options and how to choose the right method for you.
What are the best hair extensions for thin hair?
It depends on your lifestyle and goals. If you want a temporary transformation for special events or everyday styling, clip-ins are a great choice. If you’re looking for something longer lasting that you can sleep, swim, and live in, tape or weft extensions may be better suited.
1. Clip-In Extensions
Clip-ins are perfect for thin hair thanks to their flexibility and ease of use. You can apply them exactly where you need volume and remove them at the end of the day—no commitment, no damage.
Our Invisible Clip-In Boxset is made with 100% European Remy double-drawn human hair and comes with premium shampoo and conditioner. Designed with a flat 1mm bonded strip, the clips sit flush against the scalp—ideal for finer hair with no bulk or visibility.
2. Tape-In Extensions
If you’re ready for a more permanent option, tape hair extensions are lightweight, gentle, and blend beautifully into fine hair. With a discreet adhesive strip and no heat or chemicals required, they offer a semi-permanent solution that feels natural and stays secure.
Our Classic Tape Extensions are made with 100% Remy human hair and available in a wide shade range that can be custom-dyed by your stylist for a flawless match. Maintenance is typically required every 4–6 weeks as your hair grows out, but the natural, voluminous result is worth it.
Invisible tape or skin weft
An innovative step forward from the classic tape method, our Invisible Tape extensions are applied with the same process as classic tape, however, they are made with a hand tied method to give the illusion that the hair is growing from the scalp. This avoids the obvious taped-in look from ever showing through - ideal if you have super thin hair and are worried about the discreteness of your extensions.Weft
Sewn onto a horizontal strip to create natural-looking extensions, weft hair extensions can be applied with a micro bead or braided track method, adding the right amount of thickness that you need. Our Weft extensions are applied closely to the scalp and with a bead that matches your hair colour, so they can seamlessly blend into your hair. Just like our other methods, the weft extensions won’t damage your hair, as they are designed to prevent breakage and be moved with ease when done by a trained hair professional.
Even with thin hair, weft extensions can work well. It ultimately comes down to how thin your hair is and how much volume you would like to add.
How many extensions do you need for thin hair?
The amount of hair extensions that you will need will depend on the thickness of your hair, which will be different for everyone. If you want to use clip-ins, simply add as many pieces as you like to achieve your desired thickness. If you’re keen on the tape or weft methods, book a consultation at your nearest salon that uses Jadore hair extensions to work out how much hair you will need to add!
Do hair extensions cause hair loss?
If you already have thin hair, we bet that the last thing you will want to do is thin it out even more while in the process of making it look fuller. You’ll be happy to know that our extensions are designed to protect your natural hair with their application methods, whether you prefer clip-ins, tape or weft.
