You know you are addicted to hair/ extensions when:

you plan your schedule around shampoo days/takedown days/install days

you have an opportunity to go out of town, but your 'hair delivery day' falls somewhere in there....so you really have to think about it first.

(was just feeling silly....looking at the number of favorites  i have that are hair related)

LOL Nursie!

Speaking of traveling, you know your addiction is chronic (as opposed to merely 'acute')when you bring small amounts of all extension supplies - tape, remover, glue, purging iron, extra tipped hair, piece of weft, emergency clip ins - with you in addition to shampoo/conditioner/blowdryer. GOD FORBID you should have hair failure while away from home.

How about being on a business trip, and having some free time, and instead of seeing the sights you go looking for the places the locals buy hair from just to check 'em out!!! Hmmm see the St Louis arch.. have some ribs.. or go look at hair.. hmmmm

LOL!!   We all need intervention really bad.   Only thing is I know that if they put me in extension rehab, I'd just run away.

You know when you are addicted when you are sad and down and the first thing you think about what will make you happy is changing your hair.

Many people go to other cities such as London to view the sites, I never did, I used to book into a hotel then contact all the hair shops and warehouses to see what the opening times where and visit them on a daily basis to go shopping for hair.  I sometimes had time left to do the tourist things.

I think at this point my guy would happily send me away on a looong
hair cruise, but he'd rather have his genitals eaten off by fire ants
than get anywhere near such a cruise ship himself! We had to drive
an hour to dinner Thursday night and I spent at least half the trip
telling him all about human hair and the different kinds and how hard
it is to find and all the problems everyone is having finding good hair
and and and... finally I looked over and the poor guy was falling
asleep at the wheel!

I gotta say, though, we may be addicted, and be "somewhat"
obnoxious about our extensions, but we all HAVE GREAT HAIR! Woo
Hoo! I, for one, am glad i have my PRIORITIES STRAIGHT!

How about this one? You're lying in bed way past midnight, unable to
sleep because you're obsessing about your extensions and what you
might do to improve that one little tiny last thing that needs fixing...
then you come up with a great idea that might work and you can't
wait until morning to try it... so you sneak quietly out of bed so as
not to wake your S.O... grab your extension supplies and quietly go
into the bathroom with the door closed, and quietly spend the next
hour (or two) messing with your extensions...

(The last time this happened to me I finally looked out the bathroom
window and saw daylight! I hadn't slept and still had glue all over the
sink, but my hair sure looked fabulous!)

ROFL at you guys!! its not just me then!! i take my extensions out the night before amanda reinstalls them and wear a bandana on the drive to her house,and if by some unfortunate chance i have to remove them earlier than that i again wear my bandana constantly and NEVER arrange a night out if im not wearing them! my hair is so fine and straggly naturally that it never looks really good till i have my extensions in and then i feel like a princess with my col2, 613 and pink 22 inch tresses in and want to be out in public as much as possible to show them off!! i just feel very glamorous with them in and cos i dress a bit tomboyish i think the pretty hair gives me a more glamorous edge to my look!
