Happiness Is a Good Hair Day
I love my hair and it’s a big part of my life. I adore the way it looks and I love to style it. Although one of my reasons for writing this blog is to share with you some of the products that I use to keep my hair shiny and looking in fantastic condition.
I have had extensions for the last 4 years (they’re not cheap, but they are worth every penny). I’ve had my hair styled with different length, thickness, and color at various times over the years. As I got older my hair started to thin and I thought about extensions and have never looked back. So I think extensions are just an amazing way to transform your hair, and I am completely and totally addicted. As soon as I get them taken out, I realize how thin my real hair is, and can’t wait until they are back in. We will cover the types of extensions I have tried over the years in another post soon!
Sometimes extensions take a bit of maintenance, but with the help of these products that process is as easy as possible and can be done in the comfort of your own home. Even if you don’t have extensions, these are some of my must have products to keep your hair healthy.
