Before Getting Hair Extensions

The beautiful long hairstyle is very enticing when you consider that you can go to the salon and spend a few hours to get long hair.  Before you rush off, you should consider these important factors:

1. Hair extensions are expensive.  Not only are they expensive to get, they are expensive to maintain.  If you want to keep the long hair look, you will need to go back to your stylist every 6-8 weeks (depending on how fast your hair grows) and have them removed and re-attached closer to the root area.

This beautiful blonde 'do, see photo left,  has long layers cut around the back and sides to encourage the bounce of the curls which add movement and shape. This curly hairstyle is great for those looking for a simple yet stunning look to compliment a log face shape.

This maintenance visit every few months will cost money, and depending on what type of hair is used for your extensions, you may have to purchase brand new hair every so often and the extension hair can become tangled and unusable.

2. Hair extensions can damage your hair. If the extensions are not attached and removed properly, there is the possibility that your natural hair will become damaged- even permanently damaged.  This is why it is essential that you select a hair stylist that is trained and certified to attach extensions.  Special training and certification is mandatory for most of the major brands of extensions.

3. Daily maintenance can be time consuming.  Depending on the type of extensions you get, your daily habits may need changing. Examples include using special shampoos, drying the hair completely, de-tangling when necessary, avoiding swimming pools, etc. Be sure to ask your hair stylist what limitations the hair extensions will  have for your daily routine and lifestyle.

Being fully knowledgeable about what you are getting into is very important. See more important facts about getting hair extensions in new Hair Extension How To Guide and Hair Extensions Methods Explained.

Maybe you have been attempting to grow out a brief style for some time without results or you've lately gone for that chop and therefore are missing your lengthy locks, whatever your circumstances hair extensions can produce a large difference. Maybe you'll need a little extra length just in front of the hair or possibly you wouldn't want extra length but require a volume injection, then your extension process could be tailor-made to meet your requirements.

The first thing that you must do is use a keratin complex shampoo. This will help with two things: your hair will remain smooth, and your hair won't be stripped whenever you wash it.
