Watch some u tube videos on weaves and extensions. Tips in longer hair do deep conditioning treatments. Drink lots is water eat fruits and veggies and make sure your getting trims. Trimming split ends gives you healthier hair.
It's very difficult to braid and sew hair on yourself try glue much easier just part add glue to weave stick and blow try with applying pressure to weave
The reason why I don't like using clip ins is because my hair is so thin that it tends to fall out at times and when I hold my hair up the extensions tend to show and you know you don't wanna be showing the weave girll lol but yeah I tried the glue and didn't last much and damaged my hair bad /:
Seems like we have similar hair. And luckily the biotin will also help with the thinness and falling out. My mom and I both swear by it. And unfortunately the thinness and falling out will be a problem with a sewn in weave too. I got sewn in extensions a while back and my hair was of normal thickness, but when I took the extensions out it was thinned. I lost a lot of hair where it was braided. So now I just stick to clip-ins! I don't know what you mean by hold up your hair, do you mean like in a pony tail? Cause you can remedy that by wrapping fake hair around a little bun and bobby pinning it to hell. I did that in this photo. -->
Also, I'm wearing clip-ins in my main photo and I just bobby pinned it all to one side, gave it a nice curl. The clips and the line where my hair met the extensions was hidden. I went to a party full of hairdressers and no one even knew I was rocking clip-ins!

I started taking biotin and my hair grows faster. And I'm pretty sure it's impossible to sew extensions into your own head! Why not just do clip-ins?
