Flip-it-and-you're-done FLOOF! Full hair, with an extension. Yes, really, that's how easy the Flip-in is to use! This product is the perfect solution for women who are sensitive to headaches, or for when you're in a real hurry ;) In this blog, we'll tell you, among other things: What is a flip-in, everything about placing the flip-in, what are the benefits of a flip-in and how do I care for my flip-in?
What is a Flip-in?
The flip-in (also known as halo hair) is a product that you can attach in 2 ways with us: With wire and the 5 clips, or only with the clips.
This product looks most natural on hair that has layers, or thin ends. With the above hair types, this product provides volume and an extension. If you yourself don't have layers and/or full ends, then you can use the flip-in only for more volume at your own length and thus not for extension.
Our flip-ins are made of 100% Indian Human hair and is of double drawn quality. This means that few shorter hairs are incorporated, and the flip-ins have beautiful full ends. This way, the flip-in extensions blend perfectly with your own hair!
How do you place the Flip-in?
As with everything in life, it feels a bit unfamiliar the first time. We will explain everything to you step by step to make it as easy as possible! Or watch here the tutorial about only placing it.
Step 1: Make an oval shape with a fine-tooth comb or your fingers from your parting on top, all around your head. Clip the top layer of your hair (the hair that goes over the flip-in) briefly and securely. You can do this with, for example, our Zascha Croc Clip.
Step 2: Place the flip-in over the oval shape, and see how far you need to adjust the wire until it fits perfectly for you. Don't clip anything else yet.
Step 3: When the length of the wire is to your liking, you can use a small pliers to squeeze the bead tightly shut. Make sure you still have enough wire at the end and squeeze it really tightly shut. Want to be sure you have a good pliers? Then order our special Micro Ring Pliers. Still want to see it more visually? Check here how you customize the Flip-in to your liking.
Step 4: Cut off the rest of the wire to your liking. Do this as short as possible.
Step 5: Comb or brush your own hair over the wire. This way you make sure the wire is no longer visible. Note: only do this to the side of your head. When you comb or brush back, you will pull the flip-in out.
Step 6: When the Flip-in is comfi t, clip the clips securely, and you are ready to shine!
Do you have slightly smoother hair? Then you can apply some volume powder or dry shampoo to the place where the clips are. Want to be 100% sure it really won't go anywhere? For example at shoots, weddings or festivals, then you can apply a little hairspray to the place where the clips are.
After and before flip-in Rooted Hazel Caramel 50cm/140g
All flip-ins come with a few loose wires and crimp beads so you always have enough to pull everything out of your hair! In our assortment we offer:
Flip-in 40cm/120g: this often comes up to about your bra band.
Flip-in 50cm/140g: this comes to about your lower rib.
This product is also super easy to combine with:
- A Zascha Hair V-part
- Our Fill-ins for extra volume on the side of your head
- Our Clip in Fringe for a completely different look in no time
The V-part is very suitable to combine with a flip-in for volume as you only see in Hollywood . Because you place the V-part a bit higher, it falls a bit shorter. Do you have the 40cm flip-in? Then the 50cm V-part. Do you have the 50cm flip-in, then the 60cm V-part is a nice addition.

What is the difference between a volumizer and a flip-in?
The biggest difference between the flip-in and the volumizer is the weight, and the attachment. The volumizer of 40cm weighs 50g, and the volumizer of 50cm weighs 60g. The flip-in is thus a lot fuller, which also gives it an extension. Because both the flip-in and the volumizer are wider bands, they are less suitable to use when you like to tie your hair up. In that case, it is best to go for a set of clip-ins that consists of multiple bands.
A very big advantage of the flip-in is that it is particularly quick to put in, and that it (with good placement) stays super securely in place AND is invisible!
Good to know: You may take the Flip-in out of the packaging to assess the color, length and quality. If the color or length is still not completely to your liking and the card is still attached? Then returning it is naturally no problem at all. Just make sure that the wire + the micro rings are also in new condition.
