A simple search on the Internet will show you that adding hair is becoming just about as common as getting color or a cut. Yes, it is somewhat expensive, but everyone wants Kim Kardashian's hair and they will charge their future away to get it. So of course there are those who are willing to do your extensions for less money out of their home, car, whatever...
I have seen more than a few of these jobs lately, and it truly frightens me to know that when someone without the critical thinking skills or the training and know how starts installing extensions, the end result can be PERMANENT hair loss. That means it is never going to grow back, you will no longer need a hair dresser because you will be wearing wigs for the rest of your life! (And believe me, wigs are not comfortable in 90 degree heat!)
The African American community, (who have been adding hair forever) teaches us that tracking hair is not safe. Many are now bald, or have bald spots on their head. This is because any time the hair is held tightly off base it can fall out. Even tight pony tails left too long will cause hair loss. Statistics say 75% of African American women who have used hair weaves have permanent hair loss. The same will be true with caucasion clients who choose to find someone cheap, then neglect the care instructions that should accompany every hair addition.
If you should decide you want hair extensions, carefully interview the professional who will be doing the work, ask to see samples of the hair and the attachment method, keep your follow up appointments, and use the recommended products. Your hair will thank you.
