Feather Hair Extensions!

So, I'm not sure how many of you have fallen captive to the feather hair extension craze but I certainly have.

If you're unfamiliar with them, I'm sure you've seen them without even knowing what they are on celebrities like:

Hilary Duff



Jennifer Love Hewitt

and even Steven Tyler!

So, before Stagecoach my friend Katie and I decided to go get some. I got a cute striped blue one and a white one.


As soon as I got it I thought to myself "I could definitely do this". So, I did what any normal human being does when they want to know how something is done... I checked YouTube! haha.

And that is where I found this video. Kandee Johnson is my new OBSESSION. She is SO adorable and sweet. I even got Danica and Kristy to love her too! :)

So, I went to Sally Beauty Supply and bought:

A Fusion Hook

and Fusion Pliers


Then I went to one of my favorite spot (where I always buy all of my extensions) Cassy's Beauty Evolution where I bought:

Hair Extension links (silicon is better for a better hold)

and... the feathers themselves!

The feathers come in pretty much every color of the rainbow so whatever your favorite color is, you can have as a feather in your hair! It's a bit of an investment initially but, the way I see it, most salons are charging 30 bucks for them, so paying the initial cost (which was about 70 dollars for everything) wasn't too much.

So I did a few on myself...


A pink one on my roommate Stefana...

And two on my roommate Danica

We are all now completely OBSESSED. I can't wait to buy more and put more in our hair! :) They are so fun and easy! Maybe this will get you in the spirit to spice up your hair a little too! I definitely recommend them! :)

xoxo

I feel...that since I was part of your inspiration, you should re-do the feathers i got in my hair. I'm thinking purple.

Kristy, where were yours placed? The guy that origianlly did mine said they would last anywhere from 1-6 months. Thats a pretty broad range. I think that it probably depends however, on the placement of the feather.

Katie- of COURSE i'll re-do yours! I have pink right now if you're interested. Otherwise, I'm looking to order more soon and I'll order pink for you! (after all, you helped with my first feather experience ;) )

Hi!
I found your blog through Danica's. I was interested in the feather hair extension post! I like your blog, but I would really recommend changing the color of your type. I wanted to read what you had to say, but It's super hard/ annoying to read because it's too light! Just a suggestion :)

Shea Crystal said...

It's funny bc this isn't actually my color scheme. The whole blogger fiasco turned it like this. I've been waiting it out to see if it will go back. If it doest soon though I'm just going to change it myself. Thanks though! :)

In the event that your head is longer, pick a wig that adjusts the temple with the jaw. Long haircuts and focus separated wigs don't look great on this sort.long wigs
