Hi there, I'd love to have NYC celebrity hair stylist Kimberly Gueldner weigh in on this.
Kimberly is now the founder and leading stylist at Voel Hair having worked previously at Marie Robinson and Rita Hazan. Her passion is helping women with fine and damaged hair use products and extensions that are healthy. Fueled by a successful salon and freelance career—working with renown hair artist Danilo as well as a client list including Gwen Stefani, Faith Hill, Scissor Sisters, Katy Perry and Amy Schumer—Kim developed a love-hate relationship with extensions: loved the idea; hated the way they looked. Kim began working with hand-tied wefts and beaded extensions, experimenting with making her own wefts and finding new solutions to styling challenges.

You have more movement to the hair and can hold a style better because the hair isn't so heavy. It tends to add volume as well.
