This course teaches the traditional Sew-on-Weaving technique which is used to add length and volume by applying extension wefts to the client’s natural hair. This technique is not noticeable as the natural hair is braided underneath and cannot be seen. Weaving is a safe technique that does no damage to the client’s own hair, instead protecting it and allowing natural hair growth to continue.
Whilst a full head of weaving is often popular, clients may choose to add only a few rows of weft depending on the desired style.
There are several methods of attaching weaves. The original method, which is still used today, is by cornrowing the entire natural hair or leaving the hairline and nape of the neck loose to cover the weft. The appropriate method of weaving would be determined after assessing the client’s needs through consultation. |
