Step 1: Types of Hair Used
- Hair extensions can be either natural or synthetic.
- Natural hair are most often human, but sometimes animal hair is used.
- Natural hair will provide the most natural-looking result; but it's also much more expensive.
- Synthetic hair is cheaper but cannot be treated or styled like human hair.
- Sometimes both synthetic and natural hair is blended for natural-looking result without the full price of human hair.
- The term virgin hair is used for hair which has not been treated.
-
Step 2: Temporary Hair Extensions
- The easiest way to get hair extensions is to purchase temporary hair extensions.
- Temporary hair extensions are used and removed daily.
- They are attached to the hair by clips.
- They are used to enhance a hair style or up-do for a day or to temporarily achieve the appearance of long and full hair. They are often used during weddings and other big events by people who can't achieve the hairstyle they want naturally because of short or thin hair.
- They come in different styles; some are curly, others are straight.

Step 4: Getting Hair Extensions
- After choosing a method and type of hair extension, it's time to purchase and attach them.
- Temporary hair extensions can be purchased from beauty salons.
- Hair to use for permanent hair extensions can also sometimes be purchased in salons, but it's best to pay a professional to attach them.
- Find a licensed cosmetologist, if possible someone who has experience with several different methods and types of hair extensions. Ask how often the hair extensions will need to be replaced and ask to see pictures of his or her work.

Conclusion
- Getting temporary hair extensions is easy, but if you want permanent hair extensions, learn about different types and application methods and find an experienced cosmetologist to apply them.
