Thanky you Shirilyn. I'm finding that out now!  I'm realizing that I have had extensions in way too long and have learned the hard way! Thanks for the advice. I am going to grow my hair out.
 
I originally put them in because my hair stylist used the wrong hair relaxer on my hair and fryed my long hair and I had to cut it all off and I didn't want to wait for it to grow out. And here I am again! But I have nice hair once it grows so, I'm going to take my vitamins and try to get a cute cut in the mean time.
 
peace and love! dina

Hello All,
I'm a new here. I've had flash point exten. for about 6 months now. I had one set  that got super tangled and I had to have removed. The stylist I used charged me a  lot and may have used cheap hair because I took good care of them but they kept getting tangled.

I got another head of extensions with a great stylist and really nice hair. I had them maintained after a month and a half and now after their four month life span, I had them removed and my hair is slightly longer but SO THIN and very BROKEN!

I have fine hair and it does grow long. I want it long but I'm debating whether to put it back in hair extensions (my hair is still usable). Will it get more broken? Should I just tough it out and grow it out the natural way?

Advice, thoughts, opinions?? THANKS!
