Hair extension is really a gift for girls and ladies with short hair. Hair extension is done either with original human hair or hair made of synthetic fiber.

At the time of removal go to a stylist and remove. If it is synthetic hair the area of bonds will be slowly heated up to remove them. If it is natural human hair a special solvent is used to remove the bonds. The life span of a hair extension is four months. The special glues will loosen as the time expires, so they have to be removed to protect our own original hair. Be sure the extension you're making is worth the money you spend.
