Yeah the clip in extensions are Euronext, they cost approx $70 (I work at Sally Beauty).
You should NEVER dye your extensions for a few reasons.
*They are usually a blend of hair from multiple hosts. The different strands will react differently to the dye and it will likely turnout really funky.
*Even if you buy the kind that came straight from only one host and has all the cuticles facing down (like they should), your taking a big risk on trying to dye it the same way as your own hair. All hair types take to dyes differently. You are more likely than not to completely ruin the hair you just spend a lot of money on. Buy hair to match the color of your hair.
*In order to sanitize the hair, it has to be put thru multiple chemical processes, which greatly weaken the integreity of the hair. It becomes very damaged so it will usually only last 3 months or so. Top quality hair will last up to 6 months, but would cost a few hundred. My point is that the hair becomes extreme porous (the rate at which it obsorbs liquid) and the dye will not take properly, It will process at an extremely accelerated rate. The risk of dye on extensions is way too high. Please take my reccommendation not to do it.
Next recommendation: Buy the, I believe it is called Satin Strands,. It is hair that is a bit longer and is on a weft. You can buy your own clips, cut the weft to match the clip size and sew them on yourself. You'll save at least 20% of the cost if not more.
Last time I did extensions that was what I did, and it worked great.
I have had multiple kinds of extentions, like professional bead-in, and as great as that was, the clip in looked just as good and was like 300times cheaper. It's more maintenance and you have to take more time cleaning, caring for, and putting them in, but I'd say it's worth it.
Sorry I write sooo much, I just have one last thing to add. You likely will need to have them cut to blend more with the haircut you have. Avoid doing this yourself, or they'll probably get ruined. If you place them right, you may not have to cut them. Play with them a bit before you decide.
Any more questions, email me. I may be slow to respond cause between work and school I'm out about 60hrs a week. But I will eventually get back to you. Ask me anything.

my local sallys doesn't carry clip in hair extensions, only the ones you can sow in or glue in. they are really good quality the human hair ones that is. very reasonable prices, however they don't carry longer ones in the store. i believe the longest my sallys carry is 12" or 14". if your looking for anything longer than that you might need to find another beauty supply store which can be quite expensive, especially for human hair.
