I just received the shortest haircut of my life. I had to get my hair cut so short because a prior stylist chopped it up really bad. Before the "chop" I had shoulder length hair and was trying to grow it into a bob, now it is to the middle of my ears. The cut isn't bad, it's the length I'm having problems with. Anyway, I have been thinking about getting extensions because I don't think I can live with my hair for as long as it will take to grow it. How long does your hair have to be before you can get extensions? What are your feelings about the glue in kind? I know a lady who had them and she made it sound like all she did was go to her stylist every eight weeks for a trim until her hair grew out. She never mentioned any type of maintence with these. It sounded like she really liked them. Is there damage cause to the hair with these type of extensions. My hair in the back is probably 1 1/2 inches in length. Would this be enough length to have the extensions glued in? And my biggest question is, would they look natural?

Thanks for any advice that you can give me.
