Curly romantic bun

How she did it: "I simply pulled the previous 'long and tousled' look to the side and created a messy bun by wrapping it all up with an elastic. I finished by clipping in a flower hair accessory for a touch of romance."

My grandmother had lovely waist-length hair into her eighties. She would braid it during the day and looked beautiful! Some great ideas here!

i never really tried them before

Too bad no one has really made any comments about their use of the extensions. I would really like to know if the more expensive ones are worth the price.

Have you ever tried to get extensions in a high pony without help?? I dont think so...

by BlackFleur145 Monday, December 10, 2012 at 07:12PM Report as inappropriate

This is such an easy and quick style to do. It looks great and natural! Love it!

I love having extensions they make your hair look full

Hair extensions are a must for me on vacation. Ith curly, frizzy hair, water, sweating, etc., make cleaning up to go out at night a long long drawn out process. Hair extensions allow me to pull my hair back and tack on something fancy.

Great article and great ideas! I have always thought about getting some extensions just to play with! They are rather expensive, but at least now I know that there are so many things I could do with them!!

I like the ponytail idea

Love the ponytail!!

the voluminous ponytail is adorable!

by sportimonki13 Sunday, March 11, 2012 at 01:09PM Report as inappropriate

Super cute! Especially the ones where your hair is down.

i already have long hair but in the extension video where the guy shows contrasting colors, I think extensions can bring out depth to your hair.

Very cute styles.

by tiffany_gallehugh Friday, December 9, 2011 at 04:37PM Report as inappropriate

Cute styles. Good job.

Love the ease and affordability of the braided headband.

these are cute! :))

This story line was fantastic..I am a hair extension consultant here in Chicago. Fusion and :-) Linking is not for everyone. Good Job!

Love the long and tousled and high pony!

by ladyboarder9669 Friday, October 14, 2011 at 01:47PM Report as inappropriate

I would wear this for anything, very versatile

by ayegee Wednesday, September 21, 2011 at 07:35PM Report as inappropriate

I think I would use hair extensions only if i got a hair cut and regreted it so much that I need to use them.

by gisellemarie Thursday, September 8, 2011 at 02:09PM Report as inappropriate

Not worth the hassle for me because I'm satisfied with how my hair looks without extensions,quite full with volume. I would consider extensions for a special occasion,some of these did look qiute nice and natural I must say:)

by selma Thursday, September 8, 2011 at 11:44AM Report as inappropriate

They all look sooo cute!

by kelser11 Thursday, September 1, 2011 at 02:32PM Report as inappropriate

I do the side pony almost everyday. A cheaper alternative is to go to Sally's and get a long weft of hair and some clips. Less expensive than the Jessica Simpson stuff.

Side pony!

by louisamarie Wednesday, August 24, 2011 at 04:26PM Report as inappropriate

i love the side pony!:)

by riley_beach Friday, July 8, 2011 at 10:43AM Report as inappropriate

I do love these looks. I would have liked to have seen a before picture so I knew the original length of her hair.

by stephgal Thursday, July 7, 2011 at 12:05AM Report as inappropriate

My hair is more than half down my back, and I still want to wear extensions, the longer your hair is the better ;)

I love hair extensions! I really want to try one of these braided looks for the summer.

by sarahmblessing Friday, May 6, 2011 at 12:29PM Report as inappropriate

Hair extensions seem like a bigger hassle than they're worth, unless it's a special occasion. If they're too noticeable, you're better off just skipping them in my opinion.

What cute looks!

by LittleBunny Thursday, April 7, 2011 at 07:49AM Report as inappropriate

8th looks the most fake among them all...just cause it reminds me of uber fake long hairs like the ones of Miley, LiLo, Kim K to name a few

by debjosh Thursday, April 7, 2011 at 01:26AM Report as inappropriate

Sorry, but the long and tousled and braided head band (style 9 and 10) are off of my list. They looked too false and messy. The problem I see with the long pony tail looks are if you are outside at all, you can tell that the hair is not yours if the wind blows it. To me the best look for these pieces is the "up" pony tail--totally believable.

by alictasia Wednesday, April 6, 2011 at 02:29PM Report as inappropriate

Love all of these! I can't believe how great the hair extensions look.

by kbailey Wednesday, April 6, 2011 at 01:35PM Report as inappropriate

Some of these were fantastic!
