From short hair to long, or just a different hairstyle, hair weaves can help you achieve the look you want, with hair extensions, without disturbing your natural locks. It is also a good way of covering up thinning hair, as hair weaves are also meant to add volume to the hair. One of the many hair weaving techniques is tracking, or sewing in weave.

Sew in Hair Weave

When you decide, first decide what kind of hair you are looking for. Human hair, though slightly expensive, it has a more natural appearance, and is long lasting as compared to synthetic hair. Find some how to tips below:
1. To begin with, wash your hair thoroughly, followed by conditioning. Blow dry your hair, or just leave it to dry naturally.

2. If you want to sew in weave with bangs, take a square or round part in the front of your hair according to the desired length, about 1 inch from your original hairline and tie it up so it doesn’t come in the way.

3. Begin braiding your hair into cornrows, right to the back of the head. Braid the hair tight, not too tight as it can lead to hair loss.

4. If you have short hair and are unable to braid proper cornrows, use hair extensions to braid them well. Once you braid at least ten cornrows, braid them all together at the ends, and tie them.

5. To sew in hair weave, place the weave track in the desired part, and begin to sew below the weave to hide its seams. Don’t make too many knots as it also has to be removed. Also, be careful not to hurt your scalp while using the needle.

6. Another option is to use weave bond glue, by pressing the weave track for about 15 seconds, on the seams of the weave, where it has been sewn into the cornrow. Set the glue by directing a hair dryer on the cold setting, to the necessary areas.

7. Look for exposed scalp. Use additional hair weaves to cover it up.

8. To sew in weave with a part, section off the desired part, by parting your hair and tying up the natural hair. Repeat the same steps required to sew in a full weave.
