I am not sure if you are asking if men have preconceived stereotypes of women who wear hair extensions or what. Personally, my guy loves the look of them and is happily forking over the ca$h for the constant upkeep of mine

I'm just nervous that the guy thst i'm currently into is going to get freaked out when he notices that I wear clip in hair extensions on a dialy basis.
from what I've learned is that you have to do what is right for you and no one else. If you are comfortable with it, that is all that counts. You can bring up the topic to him about hair extensions and see where his mind is on it.
When I dated (married now), it was a take it or leave it situation: take me AND my kids AND hair extensions or find someone else. He took it.

I suppose that would be awkward to explain to a new boyfriend or date but its no different than wearing a wonder bra and having to explain that! LMAO!
DH loves my new hair and is willing to put up with my eccentricities like b00b surgery(went bigger), acrylic nails, extension etc. I put up with his RC Helicopters so he puts up with me. LOL

LOL! This is so true! Weirdly enough, I think a lot of guys wouldn't put two-and-two together until you told them. Like, they wouldn't even notice the actual difference in length until you showed them specifically. My guy just rolls his eyes when I work on my hair. I know he loves the way they look, but he doesn't want to see me putting them in or taking them out!!!!

Whoop there it is!!! My hubby has never cared.. I wore a GORGEOUS phony pony for my wedding.. If it was a big deal to him, I'd have to keep it moving.. I was an independent single woman for far too long to let some dude tell me how to style my hair....

Amen Diva! I didn't get married until I was 33(6yrs ago) and lived on my own with my two sons before then so I have a pretty strong independent streak.

If he hasn't noticed it yet, he probably never wil,lol. If he so shallow that he's freaked out about it dump him, just kidding,hehehe. He'll get over it. Suggestion: If he's the "Run my fingers through your hair" type of guy and you allow that sort of foolishness,lol, please warn him! You don't want him thinking you have some type of metal plates or shrapnel in your head,
I don't think that most mean really care if you wear extensions. I think most just consider it a 'girl thing', just like wearing make up and getting your nails done.
Most don't care....but i feel ya when you are with someone new...its kinda hard to tell them.....but you are nervous they will run there hands through your hair or god help you in the heat of passion they pull your hair..........now that might freak em' out..............could you imagine the face on the guy who pulled a weft out.........lol
Im with Honey...if he don't like em'....dump him..........cause most guys now days have seen it all when it comes to some of the stuff we do to ourselves...kinda like the water bra......lol
Thanks,

Current install-Bohyme Bodywave #30 and #14 in the straight hair/ they didn't have the #14 in bodywave, so I mixed them...works great!

This makes me think of my bf and the instinctive reflex I have every time he raises hand and directs it towards my head! I do the whole 'head duck and bob.' But, then again, I wouldn't let him run it through my hair when I wore my natural hair either --- worked too darn hard on my hair for him to mess it up!! ahhhhh.....women!!!
Love clip-ins and tape!

And paid too much dang on money too Did you have to do the Karate blocks too. Girl you'd thought I had a blackbelt
Oh, one time I went to my clinic with a sinus headache. The doc( fine white boy, whooee, oops anyway) had to touch the sides of my nose with his thumbs and his fingers had to be in my hair for that position. I didn't have time to say anything and was thinking" Oh crap, he's gonna freak out and wonder "What the heck is that" He didn't flinch or anything. I guess he'd already seen his fair share of weaves

Honey! Can't find the laughing emoticon!!! anyway, isn't it funny how we think about our weaves when we're in the weirdest 'positions'/situations? You just can't help it. I bet that doc has seen his share of weaves/extensions.
Love clip-ins and tape!

The whole time he was examining me I thought I was gonna throw up I was waiting for him to consult with another doc about the odd ridges forming on my scalp
