Be-Weave It or Not! 9 Common Hair Extension Myths Busted

Be-Weave It or Not! 9 Common Hair Extension Myths Busted

Hair extensions have become the go-to solution for creating luscious, voluminous styles. Whether you want to grow out short hair, add bangs or simply elevate your everyday look, extensions add dramatic length, volume and versatility. Available in a wide range of textures, colours and types, there’s an option for every hair goal.

Yet, despite their popularity, many people still hesitate due to common misconceptions.

Let’s bust the 9 most common myths about hair extensions so you can make informed decisions.

Myth #1: Extensions Are Only for Vanity

Some think hair extensions are a luxury, but nearly 40% of women experience hair thinning by age 35. Extensions offer a fast, confidence-boosting solution while growing out natural hair. Lightweight options are applied strand by strand to add fullness without damage.

Myth #2: Extensions Are Too Expensive

Before and after using Jadore Hair Extensions

Hair extensions used to be a luxury for celebrities only, but not anymore. While Remy human hair extensions cost more than synthetic ones, they last longer and look better, making them a smart long-term investment.

Myth #3: Extensions Damage Natural Hair

This is one of the most common hair extension myths. Properly applied by a professional, extensions do not damage your natural hair. Avoid cheap glue-ins, and instead opt for strand-by-strand bonding or tape-in methods. Always use hair extension-safe products to maintain health and shine.

Myth #4: They’re Hard to Maintain

With the right knowledge and products, extensions are easy to care for. Once you understand how to wash, dry, and store them properly, they seamlessly become part of your routine.

Myth #5: The Source of Human Hair Is Unknown

High-quality human hair extensions come from real, voluntary donors—often through reputable salons and suppliers. Ethically sourced hair extensions are cleaned, processed, and sorted to ensure premium quality, not collected from salon floors.

Myth #6: Extensions Stop Hair Growth

Hair grows about half an inch per month—with or without extensions. In fact, many women use extensions to grow out their natural hair while still enjoying length and volume. You’ll likely need to reposition or reapply extensions every 6–8 weeks as your hair grows.

Myth #7: Extensions Will Be Noticeable

Professional hair extensions are expertly colour-matched and applied to blend seamlessly with your natural hair. With proper placement, the wefts or bonds are virtually invisible. Exceptions exist for bold, colourful extensions, where visibility is part of the style—but even then, application should remain discreet.

Myth #8: Extensions Are Uncomfortable

When installed correctly, extensions should feel natural and pain-free. Some clients may feel minor tightness the first day or two—especially in ponytails—but this disappears quickly. For a no-commitment option, try clip-in extensions that take just minutes to apply and remove.

Myth #9: Extensions Don’t Fit Active Lifestyles

You can absolutely wear extensions at the gym, during yoga, or while on-the-go. If you're using clip-ins, remove them before sweating. Tape-in extensions are bonded with an adhesive designed to withstand sweat and movement. Just remember to wash and dry your hair thoroughly after workouts.

Final Thoughts

Your dream hair is no longer just a dream. Whether you're aiming for added length, volume, or a full transformation, Jadore offers a wide range of premium options for every lifestyle.
