Human hair extensions are beauty products that are used to lengthen or thicken the hair.
There are a number of kinds of hair extensions on the market made from a variety of
materials. Human hair extensions are the only kind that are actually made of a natural
human product. These kinds of hair extensions often blend in with the wearer's own hair
better than extensions made from synthetic materials. For this reason, these kinds of
extensions are often in higher demand and are more expensive than their synthetic
counterpart.

It is most common for women to wear human hair extensions, but in some cases men do
as well. The extensions are either woven or clipped close to the scalp. Although this
process can be rather painful, there are some women who swear by extensions and have
them put in their hair on a regular basis. When done well, the extensions should blend in
well with the rest of the naturally grown hair and should look quite natural. It is common
for women who have thin hair or hair with very little body to get hair extensions to boost
the volume of their hair.

Some women get hair extensions to lengthen their hairstyle.By having long extensions
added to even rather short hairstyles, a women con go from having chin length hair to
having locks all the way down to her waist in the matter of an afternoon. As hair extensions
can dramatically change a person's look, they are often used in styling for fashion shoots or
in movies.

Human hair extensions can be washed and styled just like naturally grown hair. They can  be   shampooed and conditioned, blow dried, flat  ironed, and curled. In many cases, the  extensions   can even be colored along with the naturally-grown hair. However, many  women choose to   simply  use human hair extensions that already closely match their own  hair color. In other cases,  women  choose to use the extensions as a way  to highlight their  natural hair color and have them  placed  accordingly.    Eventually, human hair extensions  have to be removed. This is because they  begin  to come loose as the hair grows because  they are clipped or  sewn in closely to the scalp.  As the  hair grows longer, they move  further and further away from the scalp. They can usually  be worn  for  anywhere between  a month upwards depending on the rate of hair growth.
