Lady Gaga is the type of nonconformist celebrity that just likes to shock. She is known for her extravagant sense of fashion and for her original appearances in public. She doesn’t care about what people think or say about her and she rarely follows the trends, adding a personal touch to her outfits.

When it comes to her hair, Lady Gaga doesn’t look the same twice. She loves playing with wigs and hair extensions adding length or volume to her hair or changing its blonde color into a crazier one like pink, blue or purple. She even applies hair extensions in other places than her hair. For example the famous singer had an outrageous public display when she chose to wrap her boots in hair extensions while covering her hair and face with a scarf. The blond hair extensions were hanging from her high heeled boots. Her real hair is a blond, medium bob but she applies hair extensions for her shows.

If you want a break from your blonde hair and you’re wondering what to get, you might want to check out Megan Fox’s look. It’s nice, classy and easy to maintain.

If you already have brown hair all you need to do is add some hair extensions to make your hair longer. If you don’t have a natural straight hair you should chose natural hair extensions because you will have to straighten your hair with a flat iron.

Problems that may occur regarding your blonde hair extensions

If you decide to apply hair extensions, it is very important to be aware of the problems that they can bring in order to avoid them. Unless you have them properly applied and choose good quality hair extensions you might seriously and permanently damage your hair.

The most common problems and the most serious of them are hair loss and alopecia. And yes, your blonde hair extensions can cause that if you’re not careful. You’re getting hair extensions because you want longer hair, not having any hair at all. Moreover it’s very difficult to deal with alopecia and you may never solve this affection.

I’m going to state the most common cases when your hair extensions can become your enemy. Firstly, if you’re going to apply hair extensions, do it properly. Don’t go for cheap services. You might find an unskilled hairdresser that will apply them wrongly and they could fall out in the best cases or damage your hair in the worst cases. Secondly, the technique of applying hair extensions is very important. The ones glued-in, sewn-in or attached to the hair with a metal ring are the most damaging to your hair as they pull it. Also it’s best to choose natural hair extensions rather then artificial. They’re more expensive but their quality is by far better. Another important aspect is the duration of the period in which you wear your blonde hair extensions. You should listen to your hairdresser when he or she says you need to take a break from wearing them because they know what they’re doing. You shouldn’t be stubborn and go to another one and have them re-applied. Also it is recommended to have only one hairdresser so that you can have the activity of your hair well monitored.

Having low quality hair extensions or an unqualified hairdresser applying them might lead to serious hair loss. They can pull out your natural hair, they’re heavy. Don’t absorb water and tangle easily while brushing or combing. The result: damaged hair that will need an expensive treatment.
