I’ve worn my hair parted down the middle my entire life. I usually throw some beachy waves in my hair but that is the extent of my hair styling. I mean, if I even move my part off to the side the slightest bit, I swear I can FEEL the hairs out of place. A little over two years ago, I tried tape-in hair extensions while I was trying to grow out my hair (check out my before/after here).  I wore them for about 6 weeks but was able to keep the hair in case I decided to put them back in. Lucky for me, the hair color still matched mine perfectly so on my last hair appointment I had my hairdresser put them back in! They are only a few inches longer than my natural hair but the fullness they add is my favorite part. The longer my hair gets, the thinner it gets…especially in the front, so these extensions are the perfect solution! And an added bonus…I can finally do a half topknot without looking like I only have three hairs on my head! Although I still kinda think I look like pebbles (a la pebbles & bam bam)! =)

P.S. I thought I would share my before and after with you this time as well so you can see the difference. And if you are looking for a hairdresser, I HIGHLY recommend Alisa from Bombshell Salon in Encinitas. She is the only person I trust with my hair!
