I recently took my last set of extensions out.  I had just below a chin length bob last September, like the picture in my avitar and now mine is about 3inch past my shoulders with zero damage, I'm well impressed x

i wear wefts/protape......wearing them is helping my hair because im not tempted to bleach my hair as much as i had been, the hot rollers stay on the extension hair/not my own hair, and when i just had my own hair when i would get dissatisfied i would end up cutting it :(....now i can leave my own hair pretty well alone

i think the celebrities end up doing SO much stuff to their hair, if they dont have strong hair to begin with they end up fried
 
and yes, even if my real hair reaches my butt, i'd still keep wearing extensions because my thin fine hair will never be as thick as i can get it with extensions :)

My friend is a stylist in the movie industry. You would be surprised how some of these celebrities have their own stylists that do a very poor job.

I agree, every time I take my Protacs out, I can't believe how much longer my hair is.  My own hair needs trimming less often because the extensions bear the brunt of my styling so I don't get split ends so fast.

I started wearing fusion in Febuary and it damaged some when i took it out. I started wearing sew ins in April and just took them out. I have had some good growth.
 
The first pic is right before I started wearing extensions in January 2006 and the second pic is now. I did get all of my new growth cut off with fusion so the growth is from Mid May until now.
 
My hair looks much better than after the fusion was taken out a little thinner but not too much

I wanted to share my journey of successfully growing out my hair with the help of hair extensions. For those who are looking to achieve longer hair, extensions can be a game-changer if used wisely.

I started using extensions a while back when I was struggling to grow out my hair naturally. Here are a few tips based on my experience:

  1. Choose High-Quality Extensions: Opt for good-quality extensions made from real human hair. Synthetic extensions can be damaging in the long run.

  2. Proper Installation and Maintenance: Make sure the extensions are installed properly by a professional to avoid damage to your natural hair. Also, follow a strict maintenance routine recommended by your stylist.

  3. Protective Styling: While wearing extensions, I focused on protective hairstyles that helped minimize stress on my hair. Braids, buns, and ponytails are great options.

  4. Regular Care and Conditioning: Even with extensions, it's important to care for your scalp and hair. Regularly cleanse and condition your scalp and the roots of your hair.

  5. Take Breaks Between Installations: Giving your hair breaks between extension installations is crucial. This allows your natural hair to rest and breathe.

  6. Trim Your Ends: Keep up with regular trims to get rid of split ends and maintain the overall health of your hair.

I'm happy to report that by following these steps and being mindful of my hair's health, I've been able to achieve significant growth while wearing extensions. They've been a valuable tool in my hair growth journey.

Feel free to ask any questions or share your own experiences!
