Not that long ago Celebrities were the only ones able to afford quality hair extensions. They had both the money and the inside information on the best stylists to go to. For a while the full, long & lush hair the Celebrities had were thought to be natural & they were just lucky or somehow had better, faster growing hair then non-celebrities. It was all kept secret.
Now that Hair Extensions & even plastic surgery are common knowledge among the stars, everyone else can now do what they need to feel and look their best. Hair Extensions are now used as a fashion statement. Wearing clip in ponytails, clip in extensions to add volume or length are now as interchangeable as wearing different clothes or shoes daily!
The reason Celebrities wear Hair Extensions is options. The option to try a new color, style or highlights with out the long term commitment. Also, the biggest reason is honestly, Long, Full, Healthy hair is beautiful! On most women, even into women's 60's, longer, fuller hair is flattering. Gone are the days that women cut their hair short once they either got married, had a baby or turned 40.
Since all are now capable of wearing Hair Extensions the question is, what type & who should be chosen to design them. First of all, go for a consultation. This should be free & all your questions should be answered. The expert stylist should be able to tell you which type of extension is best for your hair. This is decided by many indicators. How well you take care of your hair, how much time you have to care for your hair extensions and your budget. Hair Extensions is an investment and should be evaluated based on the stylist abilities and top quality hair. Do your homework.
Bottom line is: Choose quality over price! Think about it, you are trusting someone to make a major change on your body! Would you want a cheap doctor to operate on you or your loved one? Would you decide on a dentist based on price? Then why do so many choose price over experience? Most live to regret it and end up spending over double fixing all the problems the "great price" caused. Use your common sense in choosing a stylist. Photo's of 'before's and after's' do not mean that stylist is skilled. Sure, it can be good to see their past work, but like we say in the Studio's, "your'e only as good as your last design". If you want the look of Celebrities, go to someone that has actually worked on them.
Remember, common sense & your gut feeling on the stylist during either a phone conversation or consultation is your best guide. Look for a confident, clean, professional & one that has the proper experience. Experience is Priceless and so are You!!
