Dawn's Hair Extensions

Thursday 19 March 2009

Hair Extensions can do wonders for a girl's confidence as they give you longer, fuller, thicker looking hair. But get them wrong and they look naff and unnatural!

Extensions aren't just about length, they also offer bulk - and thick abundant hair makes people look and feel more confident. But if hair looks artificial it can be really ageing - you'll get looks for all the wrong reasons! Cheaper home-applied extensions are available for around £20 and hairdressers will generally do synthetic extensions for around £250 but they don't look as good as natural extensions put in by a dedicated specialist. Natural Extensions involve a lot of work and so you can expect to pay anything between £600 and £1000 for a really good job.

With any extensions, you should only shampoo the tips and through the lengths of the hair and only use styling products that have a heat protector. And no matter how conscientious you are extensions need to be redone or replaced every three months!

  8. Hi my mums hair had started to fall out over the past few years and is now really thin o the top and the front of her head, it gets her down to the point where she just burts out in tears when she mentions it, she has looked at getting false fringes but i think they would look to fake and just bring more attention to the problem..she is only 42. Is there any advice you can offer please. Id like to try and do something to help her! Thank you Gemma

  10. Hello, glad that you all enjoyed the show - the treatment that Vivienne received was from the Lucinda Ellery consultancy and they worked with an Intralace system and Farrell hairline technology to give Viv thicker hair and to bring her hairline forward. You can find out more at the Lucinda Ellery website - http://www.lucindaellery-hairloss.co.uk/ Thanks - the 10YY Team

  20. Hi, I have just finished watching 10 years younger and I am interested in the hair replacement system. I am an afro-caribbean female and I am wondering if you are able to assist with the same technique as my hair is slightly thin at the front of my hair. I would be grateful for any information which you can offer. Many thanks. Msloaded
