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.
Becky wanted long hair but she didn’t want to wait the 18 months it would take to grow her hair out. The challenge with Becky’s hair was that it was very short and wispy so the extensions had to be applied very carefully to be sure that the bonds wouldn’t be visible. I applied Great Lengths 100% natural human hair extensions.
Becky looks great, doesn’t she? In this picture, Becky’s hair was styled to be straight using the blow-dryer. The next 2 images show Becky about 8 months later when the extensions were reapplied. By this time, her hair has grown out enough that it is much easier to hide the bonds.
