I’m looking for people who have had hair extensions. I have some questions. Long story short I tried to go grey over the summer last year and then chipped all my hair off to a pixie cut when I got tired of dealing with the dryness of bleached hair. I’ve been growing it out since December and I just can’t deal anymore. I’m really thinking of getting extensions but I don’t know a whole lot about them. As for the questions: 1) About how much do they cost? And I know everyplace is different but if I could even get a good range I would be happy. 2) How long do they last? I don’t want to spend a whole bunch of money if they only last a couple of months. 3) Is there any sort of maintenance that goes along with extensions? That’s why I’m growing out my pixie. I just couldn’t handle the whole getting it cut every month. Thanks in advance!

My friend is getting some (not just clip ins but like glued on) it’ll be about $600 just for the packs of hair. Not including putting them in. And you need them redone every 6 months or so

I got them for my wedding it depends on what you are looking for. I got the micro beads bc my hair is fine and with putting them in and buying the hair it was 1000 plus getting them re done every 6 weeks was another 300
