Here is the thing that many companies don’t tell you about is that when it comes to clip-in bangs and clip-in fringes in the human hair product segment they are quite different. They are often used interchangeably in a normal conversation but they do vary in their job performance. Picking the wrong one means clips that don’t fit your face, a hairline that doesn't match, or coverage that's either too thin or too dramatic for your face.
At GoldTips Hair we carry both – from our bestseller Clip-In Hairline with Curtain Bangs to our 2 Clips Front Hairline Fringes, 3 Clip Front Hair Line Fringes, Light Bangs, Medium Bangs, and Heavy Bangs. So, we know exactly which one would be the star product particularly for you.
Now let’s understand what is the actual difference between Clip-in Bangs and Clip-in Fringes
The word “Fringe” is the British English term for what Americans call “Bangs” – a section of hair cut over the forehead; in the day-to-day sense they mean the same thing.
But when it comes to the human hair product industry or you can also say clip-in hair extensions industry, the two words describe two very distinct product categories depending on what the customer wants based on their hair concern and coverage needed basically based on their concern and product.
What are Clip-in Bangs
Clip-in bangs are ready-made hairpieces that you can attach to the front of your head in seconds. They are very handy and easy to use can be applied in seconds. They sit neatly on top of your hair naturally due to which they resemble your real and natural hair, so your hair stays completely safe underneath.
In clip-in bangs we offer 3 different thickness / density which would help you find the perfect fit for you, as the product subtlety on one’s hair highly depending on the density of hair that a person has.
Clip-in bangs density guide
Clip-in bangs come in three thickness/density levels — Light, Medium, and Heavy. This simply refers to how much hair is packed into the piece:
Light — Less hair, gives a thin and natural-looking fringe
Medium — A balanced amount, suits most people
Heavy — More hair, gives a thick and full fringe look
The heavier the piece, the more volume and coverage you get on your forehead.
What are Clip-in Fringes
Clip-in fringes are ready-to-wear front hair pieces designed to instantly give you a stylish fringe hairstyle without cutting your natural hair. They are quick to wear, beginner-friendly and blends seamlessly with your existing hair for that realistic look and finish.
