Salon Glue in Hair Extensions?

Ok.. I know they can damge your hair etc.. etc...



But I don't Care about that...



The salon I usualy go to Will soon be doing extensions and by a great hairdresser that used to work at one of the most expensivest salons in my town.



I basically just wanted to know This...



- How easy are they to cope with?



- Is it ok When you was and condition your hair?



- Do they fall out easily?



- How long to they last?



- How and how easy or they to take out?



My hair is relativly Long (about 16/18'') but will want it up to 20''-24''

I've never used glue with hair extensions so not entirely sure how useful my answers will be - here goes though:



1. Pretty easy to cope with, however, just like your normal hair you should take care of hair extensions. Otherwise they will end up looking ratty!



2. When washing, just wash the scalp and don't wash the actual hair. Let the liquid wash down the extensions - otherwise you'll get matting. Also use lukewarm water and not hot water.



3. You'll find a bit of malting here and there (i.e. strands of hair coming out when you brush etc) but you shouldn't find great chunks dropping out of your head!



4. Mine usually last about 6 weeks to 2 months (but could be different with glue)



5. You should get your hairdresser to take them out. Will be easy peasy.

I assume you are talking about strand-by-strand bonded extensions.



They will last you 3 to 6 months. You have to take very good care of them to get them to last. You have to pull them apart to make sure they don't matte, and you need to be very very careful when using heat near the bond. They will feel really strange at first and it will take you a while to get used to them. If you aren't careful, they can slip out...and you will always lose a few of them no matter how careful you are (a good salon will replace these for you at least once during their lifespan). It is easy for your stylist to remove them when you want to replace them or remove them all together.



It will cost you though. Human hair is expensive. They will run you $800 to $1500. Anyone who charges less probably either doesn't have experience or uses cheap hair.
