Are micro ring hair extensions for me?

For many months I have admired micro ring hair extensions and longed to have them put on my fine hair. I envisioned myself as one of the models and couldn’t wait until I had enough money to do just that. But my more serious side told me to be careful, so I started reading about the problems associated with hair extensions.

Initially, the decision to place micro ring hair extensions was based on two questions:

· Can I delete them without problem?

Will I catch a disease from them?

For the first question I went to my stylist and asked. The first thing she told me was that she was a certified micro ring hair extensions stylist and that she would be happy to take them off if I wasn’t happy. She also assured me that anything with hair can be undone as it always grows back. My concern was what to do in the meantime.

Naturally, my stylist told me to stop by her shop to ask her these and other questions. Since I had made up my mind to wear them, I went to the store and was shocked when the stylist looked at my hair. Come to find out that she was not a candidate for micro ring extensions. These were the reasons my stylist gave me:

My hair is too short. You need to be over four inches long for micro ring hair extensions, as mine was only three inches, so these extensions wouldn’t blend in too well with the other hair. He advised having hair at least two inches long to apply this technique.

· Being oily. The stylist said that oily hair doesn’t go well with extensions. Micro ring hair extensions don’t last long on oily hair because you have to wash it more often and it loses its style faster.

Being very disappointed, I moved on to a new look until my hair grew longer and then he had some other ideas of micro ring hair extensions for oily hair. My stylist gave me a few other tips to better prepare for these types of extensions:

· Do not dye the hair in the time that elapses since the micro ring extensions are ordered and placed. In the meantime, you need to dye your hair due to the roots growing out a different color, take a strand of the extensions ordered from your colorists to match the color exactly.

· Order extensions as it is normal to lose some strands. If you order extra, the stylists can replace the damaged ones.

· You should not get a disease from the micro ring extensions. Those extensions that are requested must be guaranteed and free of any disease. Hair diseases such as lice and the like do not occur in micro ring hair extensions because they are not living organisms. But if you have problems go to the stylist immediately.

If you feel any infection or swelling in the area where it is applied, it could be from the stylist. Choose your stylist carefully because if they are dirty, you won’t be safe.

Most of the time you can expect to have no problems with micro ring extensions. The best recommendation is to go to a certified stylist that you can trust with your most prized possession.
