There are so many options and potential for your sew-in hairstyles the options are uncomparable. 

Your hair will be braided into a braided patterned dependant on your desired style. Your extensions then get sewn into your braids using a needle and thread or a net. 

Adding hair extensions gives you a world of possibilities and here are a few exciting sew-in styles for you in 2020. 

#1 Long and Curly 

The key to this hairstyle is creating waves or curls that are imperfectly perfect. Having a sense of cohesion, but not uniform curls. Use a curling iron with a large barrel to create these curls. Be sure to switch which ways you are curling your hair to create more of a textured look. Separate your curls using your finger and tease a few random pieces here and there. 

#2 Asymmetrical Bob With Layers 

So many haircuts can be done with sew-ins. The bob has so many variations and ways for it to be cut. The asymmetrical bob with razor layers, paired with a deep side part will always be a hair staple in the hair community! You can keep it sleek and clean with a flat iron or you can add some oomph, height, and texture, using your round brush and a blowdryer.

Pixie cuts are not for the faint of heart, but when it’s done it is one of the most complimentary hairstyles you can ever have done. Pixie cuts oftentimes soften the face and give you an edgier look.
