Different types of hair extensions including clip-ins, tape-ins, wefts and hair toppers

Hair extensions have moved well beyond simply adding dramatic length. They can be used to create volume, add highlights without colouring your natural hair, fill out finer areas or completely change your look for an occasion.

The difficult part can be working out which type of hair extension to choose.

Moresoo offers an extensive range of human hair extensions, including clip-ins, tape-ins, wefts and hair toppers. Each works differently, and the best choice depends on the result you want, how frequently you intend to wear your extensions and how much maintenance you are comfortable with.

In this guide, we look at some of the main options and what to consider before buying.

What is Moresoo?

Moresoo is a specialist hair-extension brand with a large range of human hair products, including traditional and invisible clip-ins, tape-in extensions, wefts, pre-bonded extensions and hair toppers.

The range includes numerous lengths and shades, from natural browns and blondes to balayage and highlighted combinations.

For Fashion Weekly readers in Australia, it is important to know that prices on the Moresoo website are generally listed in US dollars rather than Australian dollars. Moresoo also ships internationally, so Australian shoppers should check current shipping times, costs and any applicable duties or taxes before ordering.

Moresoo hair extensions including clip-ins, tape-ins, wefts and a hair topper

1. Clip-in hair extensions: for flexibility

If you want to change your hair without committing to semi-permanent extensions, clip-ins are a good place to start.

Clip-in extensions consist of sections of hair attached to small clips. You section your natural hair, secure the clips close to the roots and then blend the extensions with your own hair.

Moresoo offers several clip-in options, including traditional and more discreet styles designed to sit flatter against the head.

Clip-ins may suit you if:

  • you only want extensions occasionally
  • you like changing your hairstyle for events or weekends
  • you want additional length or volume without a longer-term installation
  • you want to be able to remove the extensions yourself

Because they can be removed after wearing, clip-ins can also be appealing to someone trying hair extensions for the first time.

Fashion Weekly tip: Colour matching matters enormously with extensions. Do not choose solely from the name of a shade. Compare your hair with the product imagery and make use of colour-matching assistance where available.

2. Tape-in extensions: for a more integrated look

Tape-ins are quite different.

Rather than clipping extensions in and out each time you wear them, sections of extension hair are attached using adhesive tape.

Moresoo offers several variations, including classic, invisible and virgin human hair tape-ins.

Tape-ins may be worth considering if you want extensions that remain integrated with your natural hair rather than something you apply for individual occasions.

Tape-ins may suit you if:

  • you regularly wear extensions
  • you want length as part of your everyday hairstyle
  • you prefer a flatter attachment than clips
  • you are prepared for ongoing maintenance

Installation is an important consideration. Although there is plenty of DIY information online, incorrectly fitted extensions can potentially put unnecessary stress on your natural hair. If you are uncertain, speak with an experienced hair-extension professional before having them installed.

3. Invisible tape-ins: when discretion matters

One interesting development in extensions is the increasing emphasis on making the attachment itself less noticeable.

Moresoo offers invisible tape-in styles designed to sit flatter and blend more discreetly with the wearer's natural hair.

This type of extension could be particularly interesting if you regularly wear your hair up or simply want the attachment points to be less apparent.

However, "invisible" should not be interpreted as meaning that an extension can never be seen. The final result still depends on factors such as your natural hair density, colour match, placement and installation.

4. Hair wefts: for customised volume and length

Hair wefts are another option you will encounter while shopping for extensions.

Rather than individual taped sections, hair is attached along a longer weft. Different weft systems can then be fitted using techniques appropriate to that particular product.

Moresoo offers a variety of weft products designed for different installation methods and styling preferences.

Wefts are worth discussing with a professional stylist if you want a more customised extension installation, particularly if you are trying to achieve substantial volume or length.

5. Hair toppers: extensions are not always about length

This is a category that deserves more attention.

A hair topper is designed to add coverage and volume around the top or crown rather than simply adding length through the ends.

Moresoo has a substantial range of hair toppers in different shades, lengths and base styles.

They can therefore serve a quite different styling purpose from traditional extensions.

If your priority is creating the appearance of greater volume around the top of your hairstyle rather than making your hair longer, it makes sense to investigate toppers separately instead of automatically buying a conventional extension set.

Human hair versus synthetic extensions

Another major decision is the fibre itself.

Many Moresoo products are made using human hair, including products described by the brand as Remy or virgin human hair.

Human hair generally offers greater styling flexibility and can provide a more natural blend, but you still need to follow the care instructions for the particular extension you purchase.

Do not assume that extensions can withstand everything your natural hair can. Excessive heat, bleaching, chemical processing and incorrect washing can shorten their usable life.

How much hair do you actually need?

This is where buying extensions becomes more complicated than simply choosing a colour and length.

The amount required depends on:

  • your natural hair thickness
  • your current length
  • the length you want to achieve
  • whether your priority is volume, length or both
  • the type of extension
  • the weight and number of pieces in each pack

Check the recommendations for the specific product rather than assuming that one pack will be enough.

Choosing your colour

A beautiful extension that does not blend with your natural hair is unlikely to give you the result you want.

Look beyond basic descriptions such as "blonde" or "brown". Moresoo carries highlighted, balayage and multidimensional shades as well as solid colours.

When matching extensions, compare the shade primarily with the lengths and ends of your hair where the extensions will blend, rather than automatically matching your roots.

If you are uncertain, use any colour-matching service offered by the retailer before placing your order.

What Australian shoppers should know before ordering

There are a few details worth checking before clicking Buy.

First, check the currency shown on the website and take exchange rates into account if prices are displayed in US dollars.

Second, allow for international delivery. Shipping times can vary according to the product, destination and delivery method.

Finally, read the returns policy before opening, altering or installing the hair.

Hair extensions can have stricter return conditions than many other beauty purchases, particularly once packaging has been opened or the hair has been worn, washed, cut or chemically treated.

So, which Moresoo hair extensions should you choose?

There is no single extension type that is best for everyone.

Choose clip-ins if flexibility and easy removal are priorities.

Consider tape-ins if you want your extensions incorporated into your everyday hairstyle and are comfortable with ongoing maintenance.

Explore invisible tape-ins if discreet attachment points are particularly important.

Look at wefts if you want a more customised professional installation.

Consider a hair topper if your main objective is additional volume or coverage around the top of your hairstyle rather than extra length.

Most importantly, start with the result you want rather than the product that happens to look most impressive in a photograph.

Explore the Moresoo range

From temporary clip-ins to tape-ins, wefts and hair toppers, Moresoo has plenty of options to compare.

Take your time with colour, length and extension type, and check how much hair you will need before ordering.
