Just wondering. Obviously the ones who started out w/short hair one week and then a week later have back long hair have extension. But sometimes it`s hard to tell w/ who`s hair is actually theirs. Thanks a lot.

Hi,
They don`t all wear them but many do. Yes, it is hard to tell for sure unless you can see them in person or the extensions are so horrible they are obvious fakes. Some are more blatant (Naomi Campbell is a big extension wearer). Most celebs pay big and I mean big bucks for their add-on hair. So they get the absolute best hair and have experts applying it. A stylist who works on the fashion runways told me personally that some of the supermodels she has worked on have extensions that cost as much as $25,000 for a full head.
Best wishes,
Karen

Do they wear them all the time, or just for inportant events because I`ve see lots of celebs who I thought had naturally long hair and have for a while.

I do know that Namoi Campbell changes her extensions like outfits. She will wear them for major fashion shows and keep them in for the period surrounding the show and then have them removed. I am not sure how often they are taken out or if she ever goes without extensions.
Whitney Houston is reported to wear extensions or wigs all the time.
According to a very reliable source Chuck Norris wears extensions to get a fuller head of hair look and he wears them all the time just having them tightened or replaced as appropriate.
Some starts get extensions put in for movie rolls. Cameron Diaz had them for Mask but it made her scalp bleed so now she refuses to wear them and wore a wig in Something About Mary.
Supposedly Cher has extensions a lot to add thickness. Brittany Spears and Christina both have announced that they wear extensions for stage work.
High quality extensions that are braided in w/ tracks take a long time to add and so it is not a simple matter to switch them off and on. A really top notch extension application can take many hours.
Hope that helps.
Best wishes,
Karen

That`s very interesting...
I kinda know when some celebs have extension, like naomi and the ones who have the really really long hair like Cher. I think what I wanted to know the most is, do celebs w/medium length hair wear extensions in general not for an awards show or anything business related, like Julia Roberts and Nicole Kidman in gene. I think some do have long hair, because you see candid pictures of them and it`s the same length. Oh I knew Brit and Christina wore them, especially Christina. But overall, I thought a lot of medium lengthed stars hair was real.

I think Britney Spears wears extentions to.... it`s obvious because her hair is short sometimes then long others.
