If you grew up in the 1980's you may remember the original introduction of hair extensions and how they were low in quality and high in cost. You may also remember understanding why they were given up and dismissed as a fad. The thing that I bet you didn't expect however is that they would come bounding back onto the beauty scene.
The popularity of hair extensions is colossal, who would have thought that something that was so easily dismissed would now be one of the most sought after hair trends? There are a number of reasons as to why this is the case. One of these reasons is due to the amount of celebrities that have been seen wearing them because let's face it we all want to look like our idols! However another important reason is due to the fact they are now made to a high quality. You now have the option of buying synthetic or human hair extensions, the latter being the highest quality that you can buy. They are that good that unless you tell people you have them in, no one will be able to tell due to the way they match your natural colour and blend so well into your natural locks. And as they look and feel like your natural locks you are able to wash and style them as though they were.
Extensions represent quite a new development when it comes to the field of cosmetology so a lot of people may not have complete knowledge about it. This isn't a problem however and by no means should it put you off considering having them applied. The reason that I say this is because with the help of the right salon and stylist you don't need to know much about them at all as your stylist will inform you of everything that you need to know. Your stylist will be able to colour match your natural locks so it all blends in and they will also be able to demonstrate the best application method for your hair. All of this is done so that you get the most you possibly can out of your extensions but to give you a bit of a head start, let me inform you a little bit about them.
They represent clusters of hair that can be attached to your natural locks. They are used as a means of adding not only length to your locks but also thickness and slices of colour and as a way of creating layers and texture and believe me you will be amazed at the difference that they can make to your overall look. These clusters are generally made up of 30 pieces of hair that are usually joined to your natural locks through aspects such as wefts or bonds. All hair extensions methods are completely safe as long as you go to a trained and experienced salon to have them applied.
If you opt for the best option, which is human hair then your extensions are said to last for an average of four months, after this time you will need to continually re-attach if you want to continue wearing them but with regular visits to your stylist your hair will be kept in the best condition possible.
