Tips For Deciding To Buy Your Teen Her First Hair Extensions
Share:
Hair extensions are quite popular, thanks to the hottest teen celebrities sporting them such as Miley Cyrus
. If teen celebrities aren't wearing extensions well then their long natural hair style trends are making hair extensions quite the necessity for your average teen, in order to achieve the desired look.
Some teens know that their parents will refuse to buy them hair extensions so they must purchase them on their own by taking up a part-time job or do some baby-sitting on the weekend. This teaches teens to not only work hard towards something they desire but they must also be disciplined to save up for them since semi-permanent extensions can cost $250-$1500.
But perhaps your teen does not have a job or cannot work a job for some reason or another. Should you just go ahead and buy them for her? Since hair extensions require quite a bit of care such as conditioning them properly and combing them out to keep them from matting up and creating knots, you may want to point them to some YouTube videos which explain and demonstrate how to care for them. You may also want to set up an appointment with a hair stylist and have the stylist go over all the care and maintenance requirements with them.
Since semi-permanent extensions require a bigger commitment, you may want to take baby steps of first purchasing some inexpensive synthetic extensions that clip in (these are not semi-permanent). See how your daughter treats them and then after a month if she has taken good care of them, perhaps to now offer to buy her some real human hair extensions that also clip in. Then again if she can care for these ones as well, she is ready for the bigger commitment of semi-permanent ones attached. You might be surprised to find out that after owning a pair of real human haired ones, she may not even want to have the semi-permanent ones after all and be satisfied with the clip in ones. If this is the case, you can easily save yourself $800+.
