I am in need of some awesome hair extensions! I just want my hair to look longer! I will be dying my hair back to my natural blk hair color. So I don’t believe it will be that hard to match my hair with hair extensions.

thanks in advance! : )

I have this thing… I’m against hair extentions. Unless they’re really expensive and you can’t even tell where your hair ends and the fake stuff starts, they’re TRASHY! Please Please go for the expensive ones. Luckily I have waist length hair.

I’m for it, because I have thin hair and nothing help to get long hair!

look here:

I bought many pairs of it from ebay. So you can look there, but carefully with synthetic because they’re not authentic! Better buy realhair from japanese or korea. ^.~

I had clip in’s for a while that I just got from some booth at a local mall. They were real hair, but a little difficult to style unless I wore my hair curly. Another downside about clip in’s is that no matter how good you are at putting them in, you can definitely tell where your real hair ends and the extensions start. However, I’ve heard that those Jessica Simpson clip in’s are alright.

Sewn in extensions are a better look because they actually look like YOUR hair, but they’re very costy and mess up your natural hair.

I’m ALLL for them. Ive had them about 3 times and planning on getting them again this month. And actually do them for many girls. If your gonna do them i think the most natural/best way is individual keratin tips. You can wear them up to 3 months and they aren’t damaging to your hair. salons charge anywhere from $600 all the way up to $3000 for them. but i simply have you buy the hair (which if u don’t know where to get them at i will tell you some places) and my fee is $175 up to $230.
if anyone is interested just message me with any questions=]

personally, i think clip in are the way to go. since the color you’re looking for is not that rare of a color, just go to a beauty supply store in your area, and get either the clips or a long track. when i got mine for the first time, i brought them in to my hair dresser, and had her cut the tracks to fit my head, i sewed the clips in, and then went back again and had her cut them to blend it. they’re going to last so much longer than ones sewed in or glued in. after that’s all done, all you’d have to do if you wanted to put them in, is tease your hair, and clip them in. if they’re human hair, you can curl them too, anything you want.

I’ve had extensions way too many times to count and you could only tell I had them once (due to a ridiculous intentional style).
I bought the Sassy brand human hair ones that have tracks and you can somehow sew them in (I don’t know how that works), you can buy the clips to attach to the tracks, or you can do what I did and glue them in.
Since they are real human hair (well 99%), you can color them and heat style them, so they will match your hair really well and they stay in for a while if you take care of them. My method for making the glue last longer than anyone I know was to not wash my hair as often. I can personally get away with that because I have dry hair and only wash my hair about once a week anyway. If you do glue them in, you need to make sure to keep conditioners (especially professional brands) away from the tracks because it will loosen the glue.

The only problem with glue is that the removal sucks because glue will be stuck to your roots, but you should be able to find products to help lift it, although I usually just enjoy a hot shower and lather my scalp with conditioner a few times while combing it out.

If you want that length and fullness every day, fusion extensions are the way to go. They’re very expensive, but if you get human hair ones they last several months, look natural, and cause less damage.

For less commitment, clip in’s are great! They’re a good thing to start with too, so you can decide wether extensions are for you or not. I advise against gluing or sewing in tracks. The added weight on your scalp is really uncomfortable, imo, and you stand greater odds of damaging your hair this way. Always get human hair extensions – they last the longest, and as long as the cuticle hasn’t been stripped, you can style them. Unless they’re virgin (never chemically processed) hair, I advise against dying extensions with any harsh chemical dyes. So many are heavily processed already, and you risk trashing them this way. I’ve ruined a LOT of extensions trying to dye them.

I wouldn’t recommend glue-in extensions unless you’re a trained hair stylist, as when I was about 14 I did mine myself being the naive girl that I was and completely messed up my hair. It ended up having to be cut about three inches shorter than I originally was ironically.
If you want your hair to look as real as possible then don’t go too much longer than your current length – a few inches should be alright, and make sure you put enough extensions in, and evenly – too many times I’ve seen girls walking round Southend with what looks like a ratty mullet due to a lack of hair in the bottom sections.
Ebay is good for extensions but your best bet is going into your local hairdressers [or the nearest one that supplies extensions] and they will take a sample of your hair and match it to the extension hair type that’s best for you, aswell as dye them [maybe at an extra cost] to match your hair colour exactly. They can also give you advice on how to apply them yourself.

i wore clip in extensions for about 2 years, even though i changed my hair colour from blonde to black to red, everyone thought it was my own hair!
however, over the years of these clips being in my hair in the same places daily,
it weakened my own hair to the point where there was so much breakage that my hair had got so so thin that the clips couldn’t even grip onto it.
i haven’t worn them now for 6 months, and the hair i lost has luckily grown back! so what i would say is, clip-ins can be just as damaging as glue ins, so make sure if you get them you make sure your own hair is staying in good condition and take a break from extensions few weeks or so :)

i have found for me “great lengths” is the best brand for hair extensions and have good quality hair… i had extensions for almost 5 years… got them changed every three months but you can go 5 to 6 months and i just loved them… problem is they are pricey, but look totally natural (no one could ever tell i had them until i would tell them)… i don’t have them now because husband doesn’t want me spending the money on them anymore :( but i would get them again in a heart beat if i could… if you google “great lengths” and go to the website it should have listings of all the salons that have certified great lengths stylist in your area, there is usually quite a few, they are pretty popular…

I’ve been wearing extensions for a few years because my hair is sooo thin. I always use clip ins and I’ve used at least four different brands. I think the best ones so far are the Luxy ones. They aren’t that completely expensive and you get a lot of hair. You should check them out, I always get off black and it suits my hair just fine, even my dye fades a bit.

abit pricey but worth every penny ive been trying different extention brands for about 3 years now and these are by far the best, down to customer service to how much hair you get with them and the quality of it is just amazing!
