I have considering getting hair extensions, but i'm not quite sure they are. Can someone please give me a detailed answer about about how hair extensions work and if they hurt.

Hair Extensions are strands of human hair placed onto a persons hair in order to elongate or thicken existing hair. A micro-attachment made of keratin wax, filled with hair, is placed one quarter inch away from the scalp. Within a 4 hour timeframe, a short head of hair, will be transformed into long hair. Noelle Salon of Massachusetts in the United States of America, is the first known Hair Salon to perform this technique. Hair extensions shouldn't hurt when they're being put in. If they do something's wrong. Artists need to put extensions in firmly, but comfortably. Check out this site to learn more. http://beauty.ivillage.com/hair/0,,9g8dkvts-p,00.html Good Luck! The sites listed as my sources have strange titles but as you read through them, you'll learn about what hair extensions are, how much they cost, etc.

hair extensions can be sewn in, glued in, tied in, clipped in etc. There are so many different methods. Typically extensions only last 3 months & are quite costly. ( $200 -$2,000) depending on the kind you get. Also can be a discomfort to your scalp. If you have extensions it's impossible to comb your hair from root to end. This look of longer hair can look great if done correctly.

Hair extensions can cause you to go completely bald. Don't get them under any circumstance. EVER!

It's where they put longer hair in your hair to make it look longer, but I heard they were expensive.

they kinda hurt when you get them done......but they dont hurt after (unless you pull REALLY hard on them) and its just like fake or real hair that theyre adding to your hair (at the roots) either to make your hair longer or thicker and you can wash them like theyre like your real hair and thats bout it hope i helped
