Red face Clip In Hair Extensions

So one of my least favorite things about losing weight has been that my hair has thinned a pretty substantial amount despite vitamins, supplements, biotin, etc. It sucks. I have long hair and while I love my length the thinning is really noticeable. So today I ordered clip in hair extensions. I'm really excited to add some volume. I'm pretty hair challenged so I really hope they're fairly easy to use. I've been looking at YouTube videos and they seem pretty simple.

Anyone ever use them and if so what did you think?

Hi Lambie! Have you received your extensions yet? If so, how do you like them? My hair is thinning, too, from a combination of getting older and heredity. I might look into extensions myself.

They're on their way. Hopefully I'll have them by the end of the week. Wanted time to play with them before the big reveal.

I LOVE mine. If I had over 25 posts, I'd post pics to show you the difference lol.

Honestly, they are so easy and people compliment me on how polished I look.

I've always had fine hair, but after my last pregnancy (baby's now 6 months old) and the weight loss, I shed like CRAZY and my hair is even thinner. Please let us know what you think of the clip ins! I've tried the glue ins for a few special occasions and that didn't turn out too well for me. I'd love to see before and after pictures from anyone with the clip ins as well!

Just be careful!! being a hairstylist I see girls all the time just breaking their own hair from the extensions. Its kind of a catch 22. They're great because they extend your own hair and give more fullness but all the backcombing can damage your hair. Just be gentle and you'll be fine

I got mine last week from the mall, they were 300 bucks but totally worth it! They are remy hair, so they should last a long time! Did you get the clip in extensions? If so they take some getting used to when putting them in yourself!! Other than that enjoy!!!

Luxy Hair extensions are my absolute favorite! I'll never get another kind. My hair is extremely thick and I normally have to get three or four packages of any other kind to make them look remotely realistic, but these are so luscious!

One of my big loss goals, in another 5 pounds actually, is hair extensions. I would love to see some pictures, and I'm looking all over to see what the best kind are. My hair has thinned a lot, too, with the rapid weight loss. Plus, I want to be skinny with long, sexy hair!!

I wore them alot when I was 16-18 to try and get hollywood hair! Just make sure to hide the clips, nothing worse than walking around all day and coming home to realise the clip would be on show.

And ensure they match your hair colour! Nothing worse than hair extentions that dont match. I dyed my hair and the extentions so they were the same colour!

OOohhhhh I wanna try these so bad!... but I'm afraid my already thinning-hair would sustain even more damage, so I haven't taken the leap yet...

still thinkin' on it, tho!!
