Hi Lovelies..here's a quick tutorial showing how to make your own clip in hair extensions.
It saves a few dollars..instead of buying them already made..make them yourself :-)
I found a few sellers on ebay that sell the clips in bulk:

Hi YouTube: it's your girl, love kisses 99, and I'm coming to you today with a quick tutorial on how to make your own clip in hair pieces. So stay tuned, okay, so we're going to get started and here's our way clip. These are little teeth that are going to attach the weft of hair to your hair. So we're just going to take the extension and we're just going to line up there's holes in here, which is right here we're going to line that up with the edge of the weft of hair, we're going to take our thread and you go through the weft Of hair right through the hole and the wheat clip and I'm going to loop this through in order to anchor it and keep the little clip from slipping around and we're just going to sew like this, and it's really simple. It'S really easy to make the clips yourself at home. That'S pretty much how you so one side, so I'm going to cut the thread off and show you how I tie it to keep it from you, keep the little clip from falling off so just stay tuned. Okay, so now what I'm going to do is take the thread we're going to cut it here, cutting off the excess and I'm going to take the two ends of the thread which are here and just tie a little knot in it. That'S one little tie and we're going to knot it again that way, it'll keep the clip portfolio and tie that nice and tight. Then we're going to take that and cut off the excess thread. So now you have one side of your clip all sewn on and it's nice and tight. It'S not going to come loose, it's going to stay, put and we're just going to sew this side as well. The same way, we did the other side so I'll do that for you and show you how quick that is so hold on one? Second, okay, so now we're going to get started and we're going to attach this side of the bed clip same thing in through the little hole on the clip and we're going to anchor it same to you, it's very easy. Once you get the hang of it, you'll be making your own Clips more often. That way you don't have to spend that money on. You know buying them in the store, because they are a little bit more extensive post before you throw out your on the hair. That'S already used and you can't use it anymore. You can take those same clips and use them again, so the clips really are reusable and that way, you'll save a little bit of money and there you have the other side attached. I'M going to cut the thread off and title the same way as I did the other side. So then that way we have our clip all installed and ready to go. So here we have the track all made, and here it is with the two small weight clips one on each end, and these are ready to be used. So I'm going to take an older links unit that I have and show you how to put them on. So stay tuned: okay, okay, so here's the hair all parted. So you would take the track of hair, which is this open up the little clips in the back make sure that they're open and then you would slide it down onto your own hair. Some people tease it a little bit, but you could slide onto your own hair and clip and go along this slide and slide it down close that clip and that's how you would do your clip ins, what you would do cover the clip ins you already installed And put another one here and just work your way through your whole head until you have as much volume and as much length and width as you need. So that's just my quick way of showing you how to make the clip ins and then how to put them in and I'm sure you can see a great contrast between the two colors. But I just did this. You would be able to see how to put it in. So that's all for right now and I'm hoping you have an absolutely wonderful day today and I'll see you again soon bye you

If you need more help let me know. :-)
