Article by suzlar

If you want a new look, hair extensions are a fantastic way of giving your hair a new lease of life. Hair extensions can lengthen and thicken nearly any sort of hair and really re-invent your look. When it comes to hair extensions, the thought is to get the most natural look possible and, whilst synthetic hair is cheaper that real human hair, it often looks fake and tacky. If you want hair that looks and feels like your own then opt for real human hair extensions. You may end up paying more for them but the results are well worth it, and they will nearly certainly last longer.

So, you’ve made the choice to get human hair extensions, the next choice you need to make is what sort of human hair do you want. There are three main types of hair that is used in extensions and they typically have advantages and disadvantages.

European hair confusingly does not necessarily come from Europe. It is a category name for hair with a similar structure such as Indian and Latin American hair. European hair tends to be relatively thin and straight, therefore it is vital to consider the texture of your own hair before having European hair extensions. European hair can also be quite expensive, more so than synthetic hair as it looks and feels more natural. If you are looking for long, flowing locks then European hair extensions could be for you.

Another well loved type of hair used in hair extensions is Asian hair. It is much thicker than European hair but the colour options are naturally fewer. In fact, most Asian human hair extensions come in one colour- dark black. This can be dyed but, depending on your natural hair colour. Before the hair is sold, it is prepared in an acid bath to make it thinner and some of the severe black colour is extracted, meaning that it is more suitable for non-Asians to use it. Human Asian hair extensions are cheaper than human European hair but more expensive than synthetic hair.
