I have always wanted long, thick hair. Unfortunately my real hair is very fine, thin and brittle. I can grow my hair long, but it never looked good. So much so that I wore more hair up EVERY SINGLE DAY. A couple of years ago I decided to explore the option of getting hair extensions. And let me tell you, they have made the biggest difference for me. I absolutely love them and cannot imagine not having them. Make sure you do your research and find the right person. The kind of extensions I get are the Invisible Bead technique and my stylist is certified as an IBE Elite Artist. I do two rows of hair using 3 wefts per row. This technique does not damage my real hair and is not uncomfortable at all. In fact I often forget I have them! LTKBeauty LTKOver40
