Are you a hair extension addict?! TV opportunity

Hi ladies (and gents!)

 

I work for a TV company called Celador who make things like 'Who Wants to be a Millionaire' and 'You Are What You Eat'. The BBC have asked us to make a new factual entertainment series about the true cost of consumerism for an individual and I'm looking for people to be involved.

 

It's a fantastic idea - I'm looking for people who love a particular luxury to an excess eg gold, diamonds, fur, trainers, hair extensions etc and have not only have a real passion for it, but also have large amount or collection of it. This person will get to go on an incredible journey to see for themselves how for instance, the gold jewellery they wear, is manufactured - be that in the UK or even overseas at the goldmines themselves. We want this person to experience how the product they adore gets from source to the shops to make up their own minds on the moral and ethical issues that surround its creation. We've all heard of sweatshops and child labour, but how many people can say they honestly know both sides of the story? We want the individual to see the pros and cons with their own eyes so that they are more informed about their passion by the end of the experience.

 

Do you know the King or Queen of Bling?

 

Can’t live without your real hair extensions?

 

Are diamonds your best friend?

 

I'd love to hear from confident people who are really proud of what they love. Maybe this 'luxury' is their only vice. Do you think you work hard for the money to buy it so why not? If you're interested in being considered for the programme and are up for a challenge, please get in touch.

So.... you want us to volunteer to a show that will make us look like a bunch of egoish women who only think of our own needs????

No thanks! I think I'll let some other addict bear the shame of being exposed on international television to those impoverished third-world country women cutting/selling their hair so we can have our extensions.   

GuiltyPleasures......I dont feel guilty about my pleasures!

well said Lil' Bo

I have to add my 2 cents.  We all have hair extensions, does this make us addicts.  Well I really can't say we're addicts. It may seem like it at first but think about makeup.  Think about when you first started wearing it, finding out what works, what doesn't, what brand you like.  Does the fact I wear makeup make me an addict to make up.  I don't think it's any different from shopping for shampoo or conditioner that works for you.

VERY WELL SAID LADIES!!!!

Ladies, you are so welcome to come a have a Long Hair Divas Night Out! Lets teach this TV "PRODUZAS" whats the real deal is. The Real Wives Of O.C have nothing on us.

Quote: "Can’t live without your real hair extensions?" ...LOL

No I can't and I'll die with them on.

LMAO  B.B!!!!

Did guiltypleasures not THINK when she wrote this post?
Does she truly believe we would be STUPID, just because we wear extensions? Or that we would spontaneously break out in some tribal hairdance singing a hairextension mantra?
Or that we would call her immediately and beg her to make fools of us, in fact drooling at the thought of how she would transcend all of us by showing the world what greedy, selfish bitsches we are. Oh and of course how she gets to teach us a lesson and how pure she is... .

GuiltyPleasures, you're probably not reading this post because you're too embarassed by the previous ones already. If you are, read this very carefully:
EVEN IF YOU DO FIND SOME POOR SOUL THAT WILL FALL INTO YOUR TRAP, THINK OF THE POSSIBLE CONSEQUENCES...AFTER YOU RIDICULE THEM AND JUDGE THEM AND MAKE A LOT OF PEOPLE HATE THEM (IT WILL BE YOUR JOB TO MANIPULATE BOTH THE "VICTIM" AND THE AUDIENCE INTO DOING ALL THAT) WILL YOU BE ABLE TO SLEEP AT NIGHT IF SOMETHING WOULD GO TERRIBLY WRONG WITH YOUR VICTIMS?
Maybe you mean well...we all know about the sufferings in the world, but don't go using people to put your point across...THAT is a selfish act: all you want is to make tons of money by hurting others. How zen!
Of course there is pain on every level.
Don't make it worse than it already is.

Bye, mother Theresa.

And now, on a happier note....................
