I always wondered how people know when other people have hair extensions. For the life of me I could never tell but then again I couldn’t tell when someone was wearing a wig especially when I was younger. How can you tell?


I don't know if you can see it in these particular photos, but there was lots of talk about Angelina Jolie's hair extension "fail" on the red carpet after you could see where her real hair ended and the extensions continued on. It was really obvious on video when she walked. The top was moving one way and the bottom another! Woman Wink

Comments included "Angelina Jolie walked the “Eternals” red carpet in Rome with choppy, uneven hair extensions that caused quite the social media commotion."

 

An extension expert said that there were not enough extensions and they weren't high up enough, the color was wrong, etc. Plus she said they should have made sure there was enough in them so you don't see a demarcation line "which you can see as clear as day with Angelina".

 

Apparently there are a lot of "tricks of the trade" when working with extensions!

Smiley Sad  Please don't shave your head.  You'll find an answer.  Can't you find someone to help in a wig salon/store or at your own salon?


 

 

@monicakm 

Yes, I suppose I could. But it's really a bummer just going into a wig shop. Been down that road before and I always leave crying. Been seriously thinking about hair transplant. 


@SilleeMee That is one ghastly procedure. I suppose it would be worth it if it helped you to feel better about yourself. Have you had a consultation?

 

Why have you not had success at the wig store? Aren't they supposed to be experts at fitting you with the right one?
