Let me guess - you've been dreaming about fuller, longer hair, but there's that nagging voice in your head asking 'Are hair extensions bad? Won't extensions damage my natural hair?' I hear this concern almost daily in my salon, and I completely understand.
In fact, it's the same worry I had before becoming a hair extension specialist over 2 decades ago. Today, I'm pulling back the curtain to share what you really need to know about hair extensions and your natural hair's health.
The Real Talk About Hair Extensions and Hair Health
Here's the simple truth: properly applied hair extensions by a certified professional should not damage your natural hair. The key word here is 'properly.'
Just like a beautiful house needs a solid foundation, beautiful extensions need proper application and care.
Are Some Hair Extensions Bad? Why Some People Experience Damage
Let's address the elephant in the room - yes, some people have had bad experiences with extensions. But here's why:
- Incorrect application methods
- Inexperienced technicians
- Wrong extension method for their hair type
- Poor maintenance habits
- Low-quality hair extensions
