How do I choose the best hair weave for thinning hair?

Hair thinning can be caused by genetic factors, medical conditions, and hormonal imbalances.

Choosing the best weave for fine hair can sometimes be a challenge without possibly further damaging your hair. Weaves that put as little as possible on the strands are considered the best for thinning hair. Some types of hair strands are sewn into rows of small, tight braids known as braids, and most stylists do not recommend this choice of strands for fine hair, as braids often make the problem with hair breakage worse. A lock of hair secured with certain adhesive glues is usually preferred to hide thinning hair.

Salmon is naturally rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which can help prevent hair loss.

Natural causes of thinning hair can include age, heredity, and hormonal fluctuations, and heavy use of chemical processes on the hair can also lead to hair loss over time. Bleaching and permanent curling are particularly common causes of finer patches where hair breaks on the scalp. Using a weave to hide thinning hair can be beneficial, as long as an experienced hairdresser applies one that is best for your hair type. Once you’ve found the right hair weave, a few additional steps can help prevent hair loss from getting worse. These steps include following a balanced diet plan and taking certain supplements, such as omega-3 fatty acids.

Many wefts made from human hair are not as heavy as those made from synthetic hair.

While the purpose of a weft is to create a natural look of thicker strands, a weft for fine hair should ideally be made from a lightweight material. Many strands made from human hair are not as heavy as those made from synthetic hair and have a lower risk of pulling out more natural hair. A weave designated as flat weave is also a better choice for thinning hair, because many stylists find that it fits well with the natural contours of the head.

Smoking can cause hair loss.

An often recommended hair weft for fine hair is one applied with keratin bond techniques. This option involves bonding small strands of human hair to strands of natural hair with specialized adhesive. The attachment points are usually close to the scalp, but not tight against it, because this method puts much less pressure on fine, natural hair. The strands used in a keratin bonded weft are applied with either liquid keratin adhesive or solid keratin that must be melted and bonded to the natural hair with a flat iron. A good weave for fine hair is usually one that can be secured with a cold application of liquid keratin that dries on its own without the use of heat.
