A woman wants to be beautiful - this is her female nature. Long hair is considered the standard of feminine beauty in almost all nations of the world, but this requires a lot of time, care and patience. Not every woman can boast of healthy and long hair - frequent coloring, fashionable haircuts, exposure to temperature and precipitation, hormonal imbalance and a number of other reasons do not contribute to the growth of beautiful hair.

In these cases, the beauty industry has come up with a way out - artificial hair extensions. For a couple of hours of the wizard, your appearance can change beyond recognition, but this artificial beauty has a downside.

What type of procedure is more harmful?

Before building curls, it is necessary to objectively evaluate the condition of your hair. The extension is performed in different ways, but regardless of the method, it has one important consequence - strands become a source of excess weight, which has to be sustained by the hair follicles. If by nature your hair does not have enough strength, the procedure for securing additional strands can be a disaster - the hair from the severity will begin to fall out or break off. In addition, the hair follicles under the weight of additional curls do not receive enough nutrition and oxygen supply. Agree, such a test is not suitable for thin or weak hair, and healthy benefits from such manipulations are few.

There is an opinion actively disseminated by hairdressers that the result of building up is safe, the main thing is to choose a professional specialist, and then negative consequences can be avoided. But even if the master will apply the latest technology of the procedure, in any case, you will feel discomfort when wearing extended strands.

Today, there are many ways to increase curls, and all of them can be divided into the so-called "cold" methods and "hot."

  • Build ribbons - for this cold type of procedure, a special tape with hair strands is applied, on which a sticky adhesive composition is applied on both sides, thanks to which the tape is fixed on your hair. The method is quite simple to use - the tape is easily attached and it can also be easily removed if you act on the adhesive layer using special means that destroy the adhesive composition.
  • Capsule extension - this procedure can be performed both in a cold and hot way. The cold technique is that the artificial strands are fixed on your hair with the help of special metal clips in the form of a small capsule. With the hot method, the strand is attached with a heated adhesive - it is also used in the form of a capsule in a small amount.
  • Tress build-up - This is a cold method of fixing artificial or natural hair strands. Tresses are strips in the form of a thin cord into which the hairs are woven. The method of fixing the tress is very original - on the back of your head a braid is braided in a horizontal direction, to which tress is sewn with special durable threads.

Assessing the harm to your own hair, you must understand that any method - cold or hot - it does not matter, is damaging.Choose the most harmful method of building is almost impossible for one reason - without exception, they are harmful. Hair is not only physical load from the weight of additional strands, but also chemical - from the use of fixing or removing adhesives, as well as thermal - at the time of their fixation.

Do not think that with the new volume and length of hair you can wear a wide variety of hairstyles. Such curls look decent only when they are worn loose. You will not be able to assemble them into a complex structure, as the places of attachment of donor hair will be visible to others, and such a sight, you see, is not the most aesthetic.

A month later, the whole construction will require correction, which means that your curls will again be subjected to serious testing - some part of the strands will need to be removed and re-secured, or all the strands must be unfastened and rearranged a little higher. Additional strands tend to tangle into mats - especially artificial materials are subject to this. To unravel such curls, you will need to put a lot of effort and time, while severely damaged your hair.

Does your hair spoil and how to prevent it?

Not wanting to spend a long time, money and effort to grow their own luxurious hair, some ladies resort to their extension, however, it is impossible to wear artificial strands on your hair all the time. No matter how universal the methods of fixing, but the time comes when there is a desire or need to part with artificial curls. Long wearing even the most beautiful hair extensions not only causes fatigue, but also negatively affects your nervous system. Judge for yourself - day after day you experience a feeling of heaviness and irritation from the attachment of donor hair on your head. No matter what material and how this mount is made - whether it is adhesive tapes, tresses or capsules made of metal or ceramics, during the night rest you will certainly feel unpleasant and sometimes painful effects of foreign objects on the scalp.

During sleep, hair is prone to tangling, so you have to braid it before bedtime - it may not always be convenient for you, and the hair itself does not rest. While combing you also expect difficulties - it will not be possible to quickly go through the comb through the hair, to bring them in order. The procedure will require much more time and patience in order not to cling to the attachment points. But that's not all. The process of washing the head will also become quite a difficult task - in order to rinse well and not to confuse the hair in one large koltun, it will take some degree of dexterity, as well as time and patience.

If you do accept the idea of ​​parting with the curls, be prepared for the fact that the state of your own hairstyle will disappoint you. After removing the extensions, your hair looks lifeless. You will find that many of them have fallen out and in some places bald spots have formed, strands have deteriorated, become thin, light, when combing the hair "climb", falling out in large quantities. Such changes occurred because those strands of yours that held the extra hair stretched because of the weight of the material of the capsule or glue and the weight of the hair itself, because the longer the donor strand is, the heavier it is in weight. In the process of wearing due to the constant load the hair shaft is damaged, becomes unstable, and the follicles themselves begin to be injured and shrink in size due to lack of nutrition.

Often women, after long wearing donor strands, find that their head is quite significantly bald. Bald spot appears in those areas where excessive tension of own hair occurs under the weight of overhead.Often the cause of the loss of their curls and becomes an allergic reaction to the resin, glue and even the metal from which the capsules are made. To prevent such consequences is only one way - to abandon the idea of ​​hair extensions or to use disposable overhead strands, which are used for some special occasions and used during the day, after which, without prejudice to the health of the scalp and hair, are detached.

Why does it itch your head and what to do with it?

Attachment sites donor strands can cause irreparable damage associated with a violation of the structure of not only the hair, but also the scalp. Every day your skin will be subjected to mechanical rubbing of foreign bodies (capsules, glue, tapes and other components), which will inevitably lead to the appearance of microtraumas of the epidermis, which will be accompanied by pustular eruptions, a rather severe itching and dandruff. Dandruff is a constant companion of hair extensions - after washing the heads, the moisture in the joints of their own and artificial strands evaporate from the surface of the skin much more slowly than is usually the case. Thus, an ideal environment is created on the scalp for the development of fungal organisms, manifesting itself as flaking of the epidermis in the form of flakes of dandruff of varying intensity.

In order not to experience severe itching, it is recommended to use pharmaceutical preparations to combat dandruff in the form of sprays or medical shampoos, as well as to thoroughly dry the hair after washing. If the attachment points excessively squeeze the scalp, you must contact the master who performed the procedure and ask him to rearrange the strands and loosen their tension.

Other possible problems and their elimination

After holding donor strands for your hair, you will need some care. Often, experts recommend to use liquid keratin to improve the appearance of hair. This tool has long been adopted by modern women of fashion, who love smooth and even hair. However, when applied to the hair there are a number of nuances that must be observed. For example, it is very important during the procedure to remove the keratin residues from the hair before they are dried and straightened.

With hair extensions, it is quite problematic to do this, and if left in large quantities on the hair, keratin can get on the scalp, causing irritation, and sometimes the result of such irritation can be plaques very similar to psoriasis. The way out of this situation can be the replacement of liquid keratin with hair masks containing keratin in a more gentle quantity.

It is best to stand upright during the washing process. - only in this position, the curls under their own weight and the weight of water will not increase the load of the strands on their own hair follicles. Water and steam when washing hair contribute to tangling of strands, especially those made from synthetic fibers. Unraveling tangles can be very difficult. Therefore, you need to wipe your hair with blotting movements, trying not to confuse them even more, then you need to comb them with a comb with frequent large teeth and only after that do you dry them.

Alopecia is a very common problem of the hair. You can hardly cope with this condition, and only the trichologist will be able to help you. You will be advised to part with the false curls, after which the doctor will conduct an examination and identify all the causes of baldness. To treat it is not only long and difficult, but also expensive. In order not to come to such a sad finale in the pursuit of beauty, it is necessary to weigh all the pros and cons of hair extensions and make a choice in the direction of natural beauty and health.
