PLEASE, ask away. Seriously, I have gone to classes for extensions and coloring and while I do not have a degree in it because I did not finish the courses as a whole, (lack of funding D
I can answer any questions you might have about extensions. I have had extensions for the past 2 years, off and on, and I love them
But you HAVE to know how to take care of them, and your own hair as a total when you have them.

I will show you pictues of my stints in hair coloring/extensions since I started
Let's a-go! (If you wish to post pics of your hair coloring stuff, go ahead, I don't mind
I actually like to see other people's works)
My real hair color, this was before I started dying my hair, sometime in my sophomore year of highschool. My hair was very very long too, down to my waist.
My first hair color experimentation thingy, this was in my junior year, I bleached my hair blonde, then dyed the underside purple and the top green. This was the last stages of the hair color since it was semi-permanant, and right now it looks like a swamp threw up on my hair XD, but I swear, it looked really good at the time, really vibrant, I looked like a walking barney the dinosaur.
Second hair color scenario. My parents didn't like my hair being purple and green because of church and school purposes, so I dyed it dark dark brown and this is also when I started to cut my own hair. You can see where I missed a spot of the green dye and it still showed through my hair. You can also notice the bottom layers of my hair had a redish auburn color to them because the hair dye couldn't cover up the purple completely.
My parents AGAIN got sick of my dark hair, so my mom made me dye it dirty blonde. I hated it D: Senior year of high school, (when I first met my boyfriend too) Lmao. I had this hair until I graduated.
This is when I cut my hair again, you can see that my roots are noticeable and I refused to dye my hair dirty blonde again, so I kept letting it grow and then I decided I was going to cut it one night, so I did.
This was about the time I started to go to school for hair and general courses at a community college, I decided again out of the blue to dye my hair tickle me pink. I had dyed my friends' hair many times, so I just used some left over hair color. I remember thinking it wasn't bright enough.
So I dyed it Atomic Pink on the bottom.
Stripes. I got kept the pink, you can hardly see it, but it's there, and I put in brownish black stripes.
Hair before extensions were put in.
My first extensions
I bought them blonde and put them in at first with a weft and glue, but after awhile I decided I didn't like this approach, since it made it hard to pull my hair back at work. The top of my head is my natural hair color, the bottom is golden blonde. I don't have a pic that's not black and white D: I kept these in my hair for at least a good 6 months, then I took them out and bought new ones
NEXT: I dyed my hair atomic pink once again for a string of anime conventions I was going to. It was about 5 conventions around the country, so it was dyed this way for awhile. The extensions were glued in and everything. I took these bad boys out about May 2007. These pics are when they were first dyed and are vibrant as heck. (OMG, I look so fat D: This was also before a lost weight... I look horrible D
(PSSS: Try not to mind the ugly faces and everything, they're myspace pics. Lol)
Um, my hair now. Basically the same as before with the pink only black and blonde extensions and dyed black hair on the bottom. You can still see the pink patch on my bangs that faded through because of the crappy hair dye I used at first (I am never going to trust a Sally employee again, I told myself to get Wella but NOOO, I had to use the new stuff just in because it was "awesome!") Don't use ION hair dye, it sucks.
Anyways, that's my timeline of hair. Don't mind my obsession with straight hair, my hair is naturally wavy and ugly to me, I love straight hair.
