Extensions

Extensions are a great way to create a new look, 'cause lets face it nobody wants to wear the same hairstyle everyday. It's boring! So why not spice it up a little bit with some extensions? These just might be the greatest invention for women, ever! Let me tell you something, if you are a woman then you will need these sometime in your life! ;) A lot of my friends had several questions about them. So here I am clearing up the the confusion ;)

If you are going to spend your money buy the good stuff! The synthetic ones cannot be curled, straightened or be put under any heat. They don't last as long, you can't brush them much or the hair will fall out. You also cannot wash them because the hair will become tangled and ratted.

Human hair is the best choice. It can be washed, which is a good thing so that the hair doesn't pick up funny odors. You can curl, straighten and use whatever hair product you wish.

I use 16 inch clip in extensions. I bought them last year since I had short hair I wanted to be able to have that extra length. I now use them for extra volume when I am going to parties, out shopping, but mostly I use them for night time events. They are easy to clip into my hair, they tell you to tease the hair and hairspray it where you are going to place the clip of the extensions. However I only do this if I know I will be wearing them for a long period of time. My set came with 7 pieces, but that is too much hair for me since my hair is not thin so I only put 4 in and it gives me just enough volume.

Last years prom I wore 25 extensions, and ladies I won't lie that after the night was over my head killed! But that is also because I had 25 of them in and not 4 or 7. It was amazing since I am a crazy dancer I am so surprised that none of them flew out of my head. I almost took out my date with my hair though, I think he got whiplash :p Just kidding hahaha This was the result. I loved my hair that day! It was loud and full. I was wearing all straighten clip in extensions ranging from 16" to 20" We curled each inch of my hair and the extensions which by the way if you look at the picture you cannot tell which is my real hair and which is the extension ;)

I bought mine from a tiny store in the mall. That was in Michigan of course. But I found a good website to buy the extensions: www.hairextensions.com
You can choose different color, sizes and styles.

The Jessica Simpson brand is not bad, she has real and synthetic types. Make sure you know what you are getting, read carefully or if you are at a store ask questions. I would recommend that you go to a store so that you can find one to match your hair perfectly. You can also feel it to make sure it is real and try it on if you'd like :)

I had a Jessica Simpson curly one piece extension and I didn't like it. It got really frizzy fast and the clips were so small that the piece wouldn't stay in your hair very well and could fall lop sided. I like some one piece hair extensions but I think I prefer the 7 piece clip in ones better :)
