Mama Mia! Look at my hair!
The impish look is in and for those with heart-shaped faces; this is the best time in the world to have small hair. Cheeky and daring and certainly sleek with any outfit, small hair holds the promise of laughter and time in the sun. But every once in a while, for a special occasion, it may be time to morph and knock the socks off the people around you. Transform in literally hours to svelte silkiness with long tresses that will make Lady Godiva blush. Do this simply by using hair extensions, in any color and length that you desire. For those who are a small thin on the top, hair extensions may be a excellent thought too.
The trick to excellent hair extensions is to make sure that there is enough natural hair to start with. To apply extensions to super small hair, the simplest method is using fusion. Using a form of glue, it is vital to make sure that the extensions blend well with the native hair so that there is no distinction between the two.
The concept of hair extension is honestly straightforward. It is about attaching hair (preferably real and not cheap) to your hair. So whether it is about adding length or even ponytails or braids, there must be something for the extensions to hang on to (pun not intended). If you have super small hair but, it is always advised against having very long extensions. This is because regardless of how experienced the stylist may be, it will be hard to anchor the extensions to your existing hair for extended periods of time.
If but your natural hair is of sufficient length, then it is time to party. Make sure that the colors used on the extensions are not too far off from your original hair color. This will ensure that the blending is effective and you know it is a fantastic job when people meeting you for the first time don’t realize that you are wearing extensions. Often used by movie stars and starlets to switch appearances, hair extensions allow women (and even men) to change appearances dramatically and drastically.
To maintain those extensions that you have spent a mini fortune on, it is vital to moisturize. Before starting to wash your hair, brush lightly to remove any tangles. Wash your hair and its extensions with shampoo in a downward motion. Then condition the hair, again using the same downward motion. Remember not to tug at the hair or scratch at the scalp as this may cause the extensions to lose their grip and you could end up with a mop of curls on the bathroom floor. Try to avoid excessive blow-drying or the use of curling irons as these can be especially damaging to extensions.
If you’re feeling thrifty, you could opt for the DIY version but the best piece of advice anyone can give you on this is to only choose this option if you have sturdy hands, an eye for detail and the patience of a Saint!
