This looks damaging.

I was on another board and they were talking about women going through great lengths to get long hair and they showed this video. I was surprised. This looks like the fake hair is being hot glued to her hair. I don't know what the removal process would be.

These are fusion extensions they are more common among yt people and yes they are very damaging. I remember asking about getting these from my old weavologist she said she would never recommend them for African American hair because our hair becomes very weak at the bonding site and that I would lose hair. Also we would have to straighten our hair to match the bonded hair this would damage the bond. As far as the removal some use a solution and a tool that looks like a pair of needle nose pliers.

I remember when Toni Braxton came out with that video of her looooooon hair for the first time. I was floored. The I found out it was fusion. I wanted to try it so bad until I decided that it was far too much out of my price range. Then I saw Britney's jacked up hair.

I'd like to try those if I kind find hair similar to my own.

This lady got them but they don't match her roots at allerplexed

at the bolded. This seems like it should look like least like fake hair but it looks very wiggy. The price is so high. I didn't spend that much on my hair even as a pj. None of the hair matches really. www.mebtonline.com

Know a hair stylist who wore fusion extensions (or whatever it's called). Her hair seemed very realistic. Didn't appear wiggy or weavy looking. I never seen her without the extensions to know if it was damaging.

I saw a ww using a hot glue gun to glue those hair plugs in her hair at the gym once. LOL. It smelled like crazy glue and looked scary (the machine). She was trying to imitate highlights and colored hair.

I'd never do that to my hair. I have heard about how they do their extensions before but I've never seen it before. That was pretty interesting.

In my mind I am weighing what might be more damaging, these glue on hair thingys or the braided extensions we get. Those braids are never loose, so tight that many women experience thinning arounds the parts of each braid. That amounts to a LOT of hair lost after the braids are taken down. They are both damaging to the hair, but I'm thinking braided extensions are the worse of the two since they can be damaging to the scalp as well.

I know a black girl that got them done once. If she didn't tell you chances are you didn't know. My friend wanted some then I told her about the removal process and she was like absolutely not. They take a pair of pliers and crack the glue at the bonding site.

Sorry - that looks awful! And she was bragging about the outcome!

I also know a girl who got this type of extension a few years back. Glue plugs around individual pieces of hair. The extensions didn't match her hair texture and the damage when she removed them was unbelievable!!! She had to cut a lot of her shoulder length hair off. I'd leave week alone!

I want long hair, but I want it to be my own. No extensions.

I think with Reneice people wouldn't even need this

I sure want some of those black claw clips though! Those were cool! (First you tube video.)
