Butterfly(XO) Weft Extensions

Butterfly Weft extensions are a new-generation weft hair extension designed with a thin, flexible seam and a lightweight structure from Better Hair. What makes them unique is their combination of the comfort of hand-tied wefts, the versatility of machine wefts, and the seamless effect of tape-ins. The base is ultra-flat and lies close to the scalp, offering a natural, undetectable finish without bulk or stiffness. They're ideal for hairstylists looking to provide clients with a comfortable, long-lasting, and discreet extension method.

Butterfly weft extensions can last 6–8 weeks per installation, depending on how fast your hair grows and how well you care for them. With proper maintenance and professional removal and reinstallation, the hair itself can be reused multiple times—up to 9–12 months—especially if the wefts are made from 100% cuticle-aligned Remy human hair. Using sulfate-free products and minimizing heat exposure will also help extend their lifespan.

Yes, butterfly hair extensions are designed to be lightweight and comfortable. The butterfly clip ensures a secure fit, while the elastic band prevents the extension from pulling on your natural hair, making it suitable for long-term wear.

Butterfly Wefts are actually a great option for thin or fine hair. Their lightweight and flat construction reduces tension on the scalp and prevents bulk at the root, making them gentler than traditional machine wefts or hand-tied extensions. However, it's important to have them installed by a professional who can evenly distribute the wefts and ensure they don’t pull on delicate areas. When applied correctly, Butterfly Wefts offer volume and length without damaging thin hair.

Yes, butterfly hair extensions are generally safe for your natural hair. Since they don’t require heat, glue, or tape, there is little risk of damaging your natural hair. However, it’s important to apply and remove them carefully to avoid tugging or breakage.
