Hire a Stylist:
+ Depending on the
quality of your stylist, your overall look will be more natural than a
do-it-yourself install. A stylist with the requisite experience can
install your human hair weave extensions quickly and professionally,
giving you a professional new look.
- Hiring a professional stylist can be expensive. Many women choose to install their own weaves to save funds.
+
Ease of use. What’s easier than having someone else style your hair?
All you have to do is sit back, relax and enjoy the service.
-
Inflexible hours. When you have your hair styled in a salon, you have
to work around the salon’s hours. Many women have to wait for weeks for
an appointment, or book during the busy night and weekend slots.
+
More versatility. By having your weave installed by a professional
stylist, you can enjoy styles that are difficult to duplicate at home.
- If the style you’re looking for is unique, you may have a hard time finding a stylist that is knowledgeable in the technique.
+
Better equipment. When you have your hair extensions installed by a
professional stylist, you have access to professional styling tools such
as ceramic flat irons and hair dryers, styling shears, curling irons
and chemical treatments.
- If you already own these tools, you may be paying an unnecessary premium at the salon.
Do it Yourself (DIY):
+
Save money. Probably the best reason for installing your own human hair
weaves is cost. You can save hundreds, or in some cases, thousands of
dollars by styling your own hair.
- If you are
inexperienced, you can easily damage your human hair extensions. This
can be more costly than having them professionally installed.
+ Style your hair own your own time. Don’t wait days or weeks for a salon appointment.
-
Installing a weave can be time consuming and difficult. A professional
stylist can work quickly and efficiently, saving you time and hassle.
So which is better? Hiring a stylist or installing your own hair extensions? We’ll let you be the judge.
