Hair Extension Weight & Grams: How Many Do You Actually Need?

Why Weight Matters

Hair extensions are sold by weight in grams, and that weight determines your final thickness. Order too little and the hair looks sparse and uneven; order too much and it feels heavy and unnatural. Getting the grams right is the key to a seamless result.

How Many Grams Do You Need?


The Link Between Length and Weight

The longer you go, the more grams you need to keep the hair looking full from root to tip. For example, 60 cm length needs more weight than 40 cm to achieve the same density, because the hair is spread over a greater length.

How to Find Your Ideal Amount


HAIR STARS Tip

Consult a specialist before ordering to match the weight to your length and density. Because raw hair gives more fullness per gram than processed hair, you often get a natural, full look with less weight — and less strain on your own hair.
