Tape-in Hair Extensions
These are semi-permanent female hair extensions for short hair and you will require a professional to get them attached in your hair. Tape-in hair extensions have flat wefts of hair attached to small tapes which are sandwiched between sections of your natural hair.
They are very lightweight and you won’t even notice wearing them once inserted. They blend in with your natural hair perfectly and can be applied or removed very easily. One application can last for 6-8 weeks after which you may have to reapply them as your hair grows or the adhesive might weaken over time.

Sew-in Hair Extensions
If you’re looking for something semi-permanent, and you’re okay with having to take care and be gentle while washing your hair, then sew-ins can work for you. Basically, wefts of hair extensions will be sewed into a tight braid made in your hair (look at the picture for understanding). You will need to go to a salon professional to get them done and they’ll last anywhere between 6-8 weeks before needing to be redone.
I-tip Hair Extensions
I-tips are yet another semi-permanent hair extension for short hair. You will need to go to a salon professional and they will have to be redone every 3 months once your hair grows out. These hair extensions are basically micro wefts of hair that are attached to small strands of your hair.
