What to do about thinning hair — Part 2

In my first post about my thin hair, I discussed the simple styling changes that Amy suggested and the difference they made to the appearance of my hair.

Since then I have made the plunge and had the Great Lengths 100% natural human hair extensions put in my hair.

Here are the pics:

I had one bundle of hair put in, mostly across the top and sides of my head. The color was a perfect match to mine.

Here’s what I really like about the hair of the extensions: it’s naturally wavy. My own hair has a little bit of a wave to it but doesn’t cooperate with styling very well. If I want to style my own hair to have volume, I have to put a ton of products in it and it feels stiff.

With the hair extensions, I blow-dry my hair with a round brush, the way I always have done, and I get amazing shape and volume. I have never had this much hair in my life!

The new hair looks entirely natural. Amy did tiny little bonds — I think 1/4 of normal size? — so they don’t show at all.

I saw Amy do extensions on a man who came in with a brush cut and walked out with a full head of hair, maybe 10 – 15 cm in length. It was a very challenging job and took all day. When it was done, he looked absolutely great and very natural.

Amy is certainly very talented with the Great Lengths extensions. I wouldn’t trust my hair to anyone else.
