- Comparing Hair Extensions: Cheap vs Expensive!
I'm trying two sets of halo hair extensions from Amazon. One set is under $10 and the other is under $90. Halo hair extensions are all about connivence, comfortability, and user friendly. So today, I'm putting them to the test on how easy each set is to put on, style and wear. In my opinion, halo hair extensions are not the most secure so they're perfect for a night out, lunch with your BFF or simply when you longer/thicker hair. Let's try these hair extensions and see what kind of similarities and differences they have.

The synthetic ones need to be styled with a clamp iron on the coolest setting possible and set with pin curl clips. Alternatively, you can also use steam or hot rollers.
Thank you for the tip, im going to try-out
Thank you! Been wondering if hot rollers would work.. Can you please elaborate on using stream, because I'd like to try that too. That's if you don't mind, of course..
@@evesmith5169 look for wig curling using steamer
The expensive ones were quite sparse. I was shocked that the cheaper ones actually looked better! I'd be quite annoyed if I spent that and they were that thin.
I thought I was the only one that noticed that
The $9 looks waaaaaaayyyy better! Color and volume wise, they blend better with your hair and look more natural.
Suggestion # 1 - It would have been better to curl your hair to match up with the pre-curled $9 extensions, rather than trying to curl them with the curling iron.
#2 It would be really easy to just add a little headband or accessory to cover the attachment string.
#3 - For $9, those would be SUPER affordable and look totally fine for a special event or photos.
All of your videos are top notch.
I feel like the cheap ones blended better with your hair color and your hair overall!!
Cheap looks best.
Yeah it blends better+
I have made my own halo extension by using hair weft from a hair supply. So easy and much cheaper plus you can control how much hair and use a better hair than synthetic.
Can I ask from where?
The $9 one actually look's better and is thicker.

I see why some say the $9 look better. I think because they are more full, but the expensive ones in my opinion looks good for her hair type and color
Personally in my opinion once you learn how to care for synthetic fiber like it better because the curl stays in better. Also a tip when your curling synthetic hair when you release the curl you need to pin it until it cools once it cools let the curl drop then it will stay.
Also make sure your iron isn’t too hott for the synthetic, i would keep your iron between 250-290 degrees.
Hi 🙋♂️ Clarissa, your comments so good where are you from?
For 80 dollars I will still consider cheap hair extensions, you should really do one of those high end ones, vs eBay quality ones
The link please 🙏
Can you give me the details 🥰
I was thinking the same thing, 80 for real hair is cheap
Somehow...the $9 gives better look
I think with the expensive one you'd need two to look more natural. It just didn't look that good. It was too thin, and the color, at least on my monitor, was not as close as you kept claiming it was. Very noticeable difference.
The cheap one looked good right off the bat. You didn't really need to do anything to it, even though you tried.
Hi 🙋♂️ Nancy, your comments so good where are you from?
once you wash the expensive ones once , they fluff up like real hair then it will make it worth .
i.e. wearing extensions for 16 years lol
You can purchase wig clips at Sally Beauty and either sew them or glue them to the lace of the Halo to make them more secure. Also you can get thinning shears to clip out some of the hair on the cheaper halo.
Yes. And she didn't use the clips already there.
Been waiting so long for you to do these
You look gorgeous! I so want extensions.
thanks mila..... youve inspired me to get get a set of extensions....
This was cool to see. Thank you for the video!
I love your hairstyle and you are very polite 🧡
I have clip in pieces of hair I wear because one side of my hair is uneven. I dyed it to match my hsir perfectly.
It's cool how you can go from your lenth hair to longer for cheap these days
I’d love to see you recreate your makeup look in this. I’m going to a wedding in the Autumn and I think this makeup look would be lovely to go with my outfit. Would you share your products and how you applied? Thank you xxx
Hi 🙋♂️ Laura, your comments so good where are you from?
Hi there! Not sure what’s wrong but I can only go up to 360p for quality of video.
Can you please do the same thing for clip ins as well ❤️
where’s your shirt from?
Anyone know where her shirt is from? Or a shirt similar to this one?
I had to get my hair trimmed s bot more than I wanted so might get the 14 inch ones. The only thing is it's hard to judge the color over the internet.
It looks better than I would have guessed. Nice match on both. If one were to wear them daily def get the expensive one.
I buy the goo goo tape in hair extensions. I can't fault them. Last as long as the ones that cost £££. Absolutely love your videos. Sending love from the U.K x
I loved the cheap ones. They blend better, match better with your hair color. I liked this much much better than the expensive ones!
Great video ...I am a hairdresser...some helpful hints ...You are not supposed to use heat on synthetic hair...but they would have looked better if you had curled your hair ...or pinned your hair half up thus allowing you to pin the extension a little
With synthetic hair, it's better to try to wear them as is. Style your natural hair in the waves first, then add the keratin weave.
Hi Milabu, culd u suggest hair spray top10 and nt that expensive and easily avble on Amazon
Synthetic, heat friendly, extensions need to cool down before you release the curl. Once the hair cools the curl will set. I actually prefer really good heat friendly synthetic to human hair, because once you style it it's permanent. It will stay in that style even through washing. You don't have to restyle them every time you wear them.
You look great with long hair!! Long hair is my obsession!!
HI 🙋♂️ Gina, your comments so good where are you from?
my halo was 600 so i still consider 82 very cheap 😂
Could you do the same comparison with hair toppers ? Those are best for thin/fine hair. And of course for those of us who don’t have as much hair as we used to.

Where’s your shirt from?😍😍
The synthetic actually looked better! they were so full and blended really well and the color was a perfect match
I recently tried the 20in halo from Full Shine (on amazon). It was around $60 and they do say it's 100% human hair but I'm sure it's not. Not that tab quality is terrible just that when you style it a few hairs just melt into your hair styling tools. But it does feel and look amazing. 😊♥️
I'm really digging that shirt! 😍
I liked the cheaper ones better, looks wise
Wise?
Also, I was wondering if it felt more freeing to remove the synthetic hair extensions since they sometimes can be uncomfortable . I was curious since you said you felt free after taking them off.
I LOVE my long hair. Just the way it falls and feels. I wore wigs and extensions till my hair grew out long.
As amazing as it feels to have “sewn in” hair extensions, they really damage your hair. I had mine in on and off for a few years and my hair thinned really badly and ended up with no length at all 🥴
YEAH !! she should keep her beautiful hair on natural , or wear clip its better for hair .
Hot iron on plastic... 🤦🏻♀️
I have over a 150 wigs and many of them are synthetic and wig manufacturers are now making synthetic wig hair out of heat resistant materials. Thus, you now can use heat tools on the wigs to curl them. You do have to use the heat tool on lower settings though.
I have very fine, shoulder-length hair and would love more volume. What would you suggest? Thank you!
I have the same texture and length. I use clip ins but I’ve also used tape ins which I loved as well. Right now I’m trying to get my hair as healthy as possible so clip ins are the way to go!! You can get them thinner as well so they blend better
@@robt718 Thanks for the tip!
Clip ins gave me a bald patch so I use halo types but the prices have gone up a lot for remy human hair which is thick in the UK
@@mpoppins1528 did you leave them in while you slept or pulled them out? That’s the only way you would get bald spots.
Necklace link please🙏🙏
Your thumb nail got me. I literally thought it was your real hair and I was wondering how it gotten so long in a short amount of time.
Hi 🙋♂️ Jennifer, your comments so good where are you from?
How do you pick the color?
You look great in longer hair and like a teenager!
I think the real hair looked more, well, realistic. The cheaper one was fuller but it looked very wiggish to me.
I agree. The cheap ones do look thicker, but it’s a double edged sword because real, long hair gets thinner at the ends. So the fact that it’s all thick just screams “hair extensions!” The expensive ones were thinner, so maybe not quite as pretty, but they also look more natural.
@@riggs20 depends on your natural hair and if you have layers or all one length. My hair is a lot thicken than hers and a lot thinker than those thin extensions.
Milana your hair is beautiful all on its own especially since you have grown it so much longer! However this a great comparison video to know how real hair vs synthetic hair extensions differ! Sometimes the more expensive is better or at least until a quality dup comes along!! Oh how I miss seeing Emorett in your videos! I hope we can see an update on how much he’s grown! I bet he’s walking and talking… blessings to you and your family 💜🥰
Doesnt the band cut in the head during the day?
I purchased the Goo Goo 12 inch in October 2020; the weight (70g) is perfect for someone with fine hair. However, I'm not sure how to solve my issue with matting; sometimes it does it, sometimes not so I'm not sure what I'm doing right or wrong. Do you have any advice?
Hi 🙋♂️ Katrina, your comments so good where are you from?
Would love to have long hair but I hv fine and thin hair. I wonder what the halo hair would look like.
The permanent ones that are sewn into a corn row braid, are very dificult to wash and comb and get matted over time , also sleeping in them messes up their sheen and texture
I really want one of these! Thanks video
Hi 🙋♂️ Alissa, your comments so good where are you from?
Synthetic extensions don't ever style because they aren't real hair so it doesn't take too heat at all obvi lol . I've had that experience once when I was new to the extension game lol. This video was fun to watch though !
More hairstyle videos!!🙏
Do they have real curly blond long hair?
My hair is naturally longer than these extensions, yes it can be stressful to curl and style. I am impressed with how these extension looks though. I thinking of getting a lob, mich easier for me to manage.
I wish they had curly halo extensions lol
And I supposed to curl the least expensive one it's already called all you did was take the curl out
Your natural hair looks amazing....getting long!!!
The fake ones matches your hair color so much more if it was styled the same way I wouldn’t be able to tell their fake
The synthetic DEFINITELY looked to blend a LOT better than the real hair though.
Hi 🙋♂️ Kathleen, your comments so good where are you from?
Both are super noticeable with texture
I'm not sure comparing synthetic to human hair extensions
S is an apple to apple comparison. Seems more apple to orange
I think the cheaper ones looked more real. My hair is that long and it is so thick it won’t stay curled. ☹️ Your hair is so gorgeous anyway.

Hi 🙋♂️ Jerica, your comments so good where are you from?
Where does that real hair come from? I heard some of it comes from cadavers.
Plz do an Indian makeup and outfit.
It would be really interesting .
Ive been wearing synthetic wigs for 24 years you have use veryyyyyyy low heat or its gonna fry the hair and make it go straight like what happened in the video
Neither of them have my hair coulour. (Light copper blonde) :(
Hi 🙋♂️ Mel, your comments so good where are you from?
Интересно, а как можно купить такое? Мне понравилось, просто и легко
A darker shade underneath would probably look good too
YOu should do a halo vs extension wear test. Wear them all day and give opinion
Hi 🙋♂️ Sheri, your comments so good where are you from?
Halo extensions will never blend in and look completely normal unless they are placed more on top to hide all the hair underneath. You’re better off with two clip in wefts so the hair blends better
I thought the cheaper ones looked much better. They were thicker and your natural hair blended in better.
The synthetic ones have much volume 🙂
The cheap one actually looked better and matched your hair
I recommend WIOOLITE cold water wash
Ive never had sinthetic hair that curled.
Hiii
Like the synthetic much better on you
Hi 🙋♂️ Anita, your comments so good where are you from?
Wow those extensions look good..just an observation when your husband talks..it’s a little annoying because I don’t think he has a microphone..IAm interested in what he has to say
Oops didn’t finish my comment always enjoy you and your content cheers deb from Vancouver Canada 👍😎🇨🇦🇺🇸
Hi 🙋♂️ Debbie, your comments so good where are you from?
Get some good pre-styled synthetic extensions and they will do better.
I liked the cheaper ones better. The color looked better and it was harder to see where your natural hair ended. The expensive ones looked greasy and limp, and even after styling, you could very clearly see where your natural hair ended
Cheaper looks more natural
Fake hair after a while gets split ,but real hair doesn't do that so I like the real hair but the fake one did look good on her also.
Traducción en español 🙏🙏🇨🇺
👍
I think the hair extensions instructions look great but just make sure you kill me then really well that looks so strait
Hi 🙋♂️ Janice, your comments so good where are you from?
The synthetic ones looked a lot better on you. Shook
Hay amiga no te entiendo 🤭 saludos eres bella
You’re not supposed to put heat to synthetic hair haha!
Is there a way to style it otherwise?
It was already wavey. You have to order straight, wavey, or curly.
@@JPMJPM you can reset it using curlers and dip the hair in hot water. But that’s a diy hack.
Genuine Halos are real hair. Yes u can put heat on them
@Autumn Eastman I’m pretty sure yoyo yo was talking about the cheap hair, which is synthetic.
I liked both of them, but I personally wouldn’t use the real human hair, God knows where they get the hair from
I was thinking the same 😐
ddmprecisi, this is just what I’ve read and heard. The women from the poorer countries either sell their hair for money, or they are forced to give their hair, basically its being stolen from them, and then sold for their profit. I’m sure that I can be wrong. Like I said that’s just what I’ve heard and read
I feel the expensive extensions were nicer
Hi 🙋♂️ Brenda, your comments so good where are you from?
Short hair suits her much better.
Hi 🙋♂️ Carolina, your comments so good where are you from?
Where do they get that much human hair???? I have always wanted to know! 😲👴
If you have short hair, it's better to go for real hair. Synthetic is going to look real shiney in the light. If your just after thickness, go for high quality synthetic that can be heat styled.
