Which hair extension length suits you?
The length of hair extensions is measured when the hair hangs straight down. Below you see an indication of how the lengths roughly fall.
| Length | In cm | Result |
|---|---|---|
| 12 inch | ±30 cm | just over the shoulders |
| 16 inch | ±40 cm | upper mid-back |
| 18 inch | ±45 cm | mid-back |
| 20 inch | ±50 cm | below mid-back |
| 22 inch | ±55 cm | lower back |
| 24 inch | ±60 cm | towards waist |
| 26 inch | ±66 cm | waist |
| 28 inch | ±71 cm | below waist |
| 30 inch | ±76 cm | extra long |
💡 Tip: The longer the extensions, the more volume is needed for a full and natural look.
How many grams of hair extensions do I need?
The amount of grams depends on the length you choose and the thickness of your own hair.
Guideline based on desired hair extension length:
30 – 45 cm → 100 – 150 grams
50 – 55 cm → 150 grams
60 – 66 cm → 200 – 250 grams
71 – 76 cm → 250 – 300 grams
Guideline based on your own hair:
Short hair (up to shoulders) → 100 – 150 grams
Medium length, thin hair → 150 grams
Medium length, normal to thick hair → 200 grams
Long hair, normal thickness → 200 – 250 grams
Long and thick hair → 250 – 300 grams
💡 Important:
For lengths from 50 cm we recommend using at least 150 grams or more for a natural and full look. The longer the hair, the more volume is needed to make the ends fall beautifully full.
