Welcome, class! Today we’re learning all about our half up half down hair extensions. We’re going to be showing you some easy tips & tricks to wear and maintain our half up half down pieces to make your life a little easier. Class is now in session!

What makes these extensions the best?

Half up half downs are our most versatile extensions. They can easily be styled in 4+ ways for natural-looking length & volume. You can wear just the ponytail extensions, just the clip-in wefts, or all 4 hair pieces for a traditional half up half down. Either way, you'll feel more confident! 

We use our proprietary INFINI-FLEX™ technology for the most realistic hair extensions! Our half up half down extensions blend in seamlessly with your natural hair and are super quick and easy to apply. They're pre-styled, which means that once you apply them, they're ready to go. With the proper maintenance, they'll last a really long time!

What's Included:

Every half up half down extension order includes:

• 4 hair pieces:  1 mini ponytail & 3 clip-in extension wefts
• 2 INH bobby pins
• 1 INH ponytie
• 1 reusable satin storage bag to preserve & protect your INSERT NAME HERE hair

How to Apply

1. Start by sectioning your hair. There are two ways you can do this:

Option 1: Put your hair in a half-up ponytail (keep the ponytail clipped out of the way until the last step)

Option 2: If you have long or thick hair, we suggest braiding down the "half down" part of your style, or putting your hair in a tight high bun (if hair is not long, but blunt and difficult to blend, you can also try this method with a high ponytail).

2. With the hair that is still down, section off and apply the shortest weft onto the lower nape area (leaving about 1” of your hair down)

3. Next, move up about 1 inch and section and apply the medium weft

4. Move up another inch, section and apply the longest weft

5. The bottom portion is complete! Feel free to move and adjust slightly as needed to ensure all three wefts are covered. If you want less volume, try only applying two wefts

6. Now time for the ponytail! Apply the ponytail extension by either sticking the comb at the base of the ponytail extension securely into your hair tie & scooping upwards, or bywrapping the ponytail extension around your bun. Wrap the velcro piece tightly and use the included bobby pins to secure the hair wrap, covering your hair tie

 
Pro tip:  Make sure you have a strong, secure hair elastic tie to keep your hair in place! You may even want to use 2 hair ties for an even more secure hold for fine, thin hair. Do not use fabric scrunchies. When ponytails aren’t secure, this is the culprit 99% of the time. You can also slick down your fly-aways with our Quick Slick  or Pomade for a sleeker look.

Half Up Half Down Aftercare:

We all want to keep our inches looking perfect for as long as possible. Here are some tips and tricks on how to care for your half up half down extensions:

— Brush before and after each wear with the INH Brush and Emergency Revival Spray 
— Wash occasionally or if she’s dirty.

— We don’t recommend frequently washing your hair pieces. Just wash them when you absolutely need to!

— Store using the super cute reusable satin pouch that comes with every half up half down order! It helps prevent tangles and extends the life of your hair. . 

Spray Emergency Revival Spray throughout the fibers. Lay your hair flat on a table, and hold the hair in sections to gently brush out any tangles. Starting at the ends, then mid section, and finally, up to the base. If you brush from top to bottom, the fibers can "stretch”, causing tangles and breakage, just like split ends on your real hair. Brush with the INH Brush before and after each wear. Store neatly in the provided storage bag to prevent tangles when not in use.

Yes, you can wash your half up half down extensions! Here’s how:

WARNING: Do NOT blow dry these hair pieces! Doing so may result in damage to your hair pieces (and we hate damaged hair). Air dry your hair for best results.

Note: Can you dye your half up half downs? Unfortunately, the answer is no. Since she is made of pre-colored vegan fibers, you cannot dye the fibers with hair color. We offer a variety of colors for you to choose from. But if you don't see your color, feel free to reach out to our development team! We love hearing from our INH Babes!
