Letter to the Editor:
I just had hair extensions put in and love them so far. I doing more research and found your great website. I want to buy one of the on-line books, but am not sure which of the two that apply to me to get. I am concerned about care and maintenance at this point more than anything. However, I would like to learn more about how they were applied as well. I am wondering why it was so uncomfortable when they were applied. The Great Lengths system was used on me. My scalp was sore for a few days. Is this normal?
Answer:
Both of the Ebooks, 2005's Most Popular Hair Extensions and Hair Extensions-The Official Consumers Guide to Getting Hair Extensions have care and maintenance tips for hair extensions. The tips encompass all the different methods available today. Some methods will have special care instructions that you hair stylist should be telling you about. Our tips are more general in nature, a compilation from many different extension hair stylists and hair extension companies.
Both books also contain the details of 27 different hair extension methods. The most recent details are in the Hair Extensions-The Official Consumers Guide to Getting Hair Extensions, along with several before and after photos. The Ebook, Hair Extensions Exposed is the most complete of all our Hair Extensions Book. It contains details on over 37 different hair extension methods along with a large Bonus Before/After hair extension photo gallery, a Hair Extension Comparison Chart and a Hair Extension Suitability Test. It is available at http://www.hairextensionsexposed.com
As to your Great Lengths extensions application issue, no application of extensions should hurt. You say "uncomfortable", and that your scalp was sore for a few days. I am not sure that this should be the case with these types of extensions. I do know, from my extensive research on hair extensions that the application of the hair extensions should not hurt you in any way. If it does hurt, then they may not be applied correctly. A specific method that I know this refers to is the braiding method, where your natural hair is braided and the extensions are sewn into the braid. If the braids are done too tightly, you will have a very sore scalp and possible hair loss issues down the road.
I can understand the scalp being a little sore, but from the added weight of the extension hair not from the application procedure. Human hair is very heavy.
Did you verify that your hair stylist was a certified Great Lengths Stylist?
