Hello!

I have short, naturally thin hair. It is nearly at the length to be a bob. I recently cut my hair completely off to a pixie cut and have been growing it out for a few months.

I'd like to have my long hair back and would like advice from those of you who have done this before. What are the best products and ways to get these results?

I'm okay with clip ins as long as they can be pulled off with short hair. I'm open to try anything that won't do much damage to my naturally fine hair.

When I had long hair I had great sewn in extensions, but I know I'm still months away from having the length for that.

Please let me know what you recommend and suggest based on what you personally know works well. I truly appreciate it.

I still believe you can get a sew-in if you like with the length your hair is.  I've known people who had short lengths get sew-ins since their hair was braided with longer extensions, which formed the base of the sew-in.

clip in extensions can be blended correctly as long as hair is 3 inches long. I myself have short hair and wear clip in hair. I buy mine, then take them to my salon to be styled into my hair. I buy my clip in hair from www.buyhair.co.uk I've had my hair for about 6 months now, and wear them most days ad they have kept in great condition. Hope this helps

My only concern with the clip-ins is if your hair is too thin, they may not attach properly or slip out easily. Of course, clip-ins are the best option for you, regardless. Perhaps you might consider shorter clip-ins (14" instead of 18") so they are not so heavy.
 
We do offer a host of articles about clip-in extensions if you require any additional information.
