So, did I love my new length? The truth is, as much as I loved the fullness and length, two days later I went back to the salon and had a stylist take my hair extensions out. And it's worth noting that the removal process only took 20 minutes. No, they weren't painful or heavy. They were gorgeous and I've never received so many compliments on a new hairdo. In fact, my best guy friend told me I've never looked better.
The reason they had to go is that they didn't fit my lifestyle. I was going to the beach that weekend (something we California girls do pretty regularly) and I knew getting in the water would be a huge no-no. My hair would frizz and curl and the extensions would stay straight. It would've been a total disaster that I didn't want to risk.
Would I do it again? Sure, for a short time or a big event. I'm already toying with the idea of booking an appointment for a close friend's wedding this summer.
Cool article and her hair came out so nice ! My hair has grown over the years from not using heat, plus leaving my hair in it's natural state. Would I ever do extensions again...Maybe with caution being as though I have so many salon horror stories !
Those look pretty good on you! Given your lifestyle and type of hair clip-ins might be the best option. You can just attach them yourself whenever needed.
It came out really nice. I'm kind of new to extensions but I make my own clip ins. I thought I would give it a try thanks to all those youtube videos I came across :)

They look good but you gotta be careful with extensions. They can damage your hair.

Could've used another layer of extensions but I agree with everyone, they do look nice.
