Give Yourself A New Look With Hair Extensions!
Article by Suzanne Greenfield
Lots of women want long, flowing locks but struggle to get their hair to grow at any sort of fast rate. Hair naturally grows at around ½ inch every month therefore it can be a long frustrating wait to get any sort of length. Long hair can be incredibly versatile; it can be worn in a number of different styles and looks great when it?s healthy and shiny. If you want to change your style then hair extensions are the perfect option. Lots of people cut their hair when they want a new look but nowadays more and more people are turning to extensions to give themselves a brand new look.
Hair extensions can either be temporary or permanent. The most popular form of temporary hair extensions are clip ins. As the name suggests, these can be easily clipped-in and clipped-out whenever you want without the need to visit the salon. You can use them whenever you want to change your styles and come in a variety of colours so you can match them perfectly to your own hair. Clip-in hair extensions tend to be less expensive than more permanent options.
More permanent options include fusion, glue, micro rings and weaves to name a few. Before opting for permanent extensions it is important to consider some of the advantages and disadvantages. Permanent hair extensions look great but it is important to choose the right method of application for you as some extensions can cause problems if you have weak or brittle hair. You also need to make sure that your extensions are suitable for your lifestyle.
In order to make an informed decision you need to talk to a professional stylist as they will be able to give you advice on what option would be best for your hair and lifestyle. Before having any sort of permanent extensions fitted it is essential to have a consultation with an experienced stylist to discuss any potential issues or problems. They will be able to advise you as to which type of hair will best meet your needs and budget and also be able to give you information on the different attachment methods. The consultation period is the perfect opportunity to get all your questions answered so make sure you use the time wisely. Always follow the advice of your stylist.
As well as listening to your stylist you also need to do your own research. The stylist may only specialise in one extension method therefore may not know about another method that is more suitable to your needs. Look on the internet, check out forums and even consult with friends who have previously had extensions to see what advice you can get from them.
Once you have made a decision and had the extensions fitted, it is essential to take your stylists advice in terms of aftercare to ensure that your extensions last as long as possible and continue to look great. If you fail to do so you could run the risk of encountering problems with your extensions and could even end up damaging your natural hair and scalp. Your stylist will provide you with all the relevant information regarding washing, drying, styling and caring for your new hair.
Hair extensions can give you a new lease of life and give you the hair you?ve always wanted. You might even notice that your own hair has grown once you have the extensions taken out!
