Extensions...

I never thought I would play with or have a use for extensions. My best friend, Katelyn (http://mrsofamedstudent.blogspot.com/) always told me that she uses them to have hair like mine, just like I want to get lash extensions for my lashes to look like hers.

However, I have always been curious. In my blog reading while chilling in San Fran with Kate, I came across Amber's Blog (www.barefootblonde.com) and found some hair styles (http://barefootblonde.com/hairideas). I started reading along and found that I could have a use for extensions!! So excited to play, Kate and I busted hers out and got all decked out for or America's Cup outing (See America's Cup Blog Post). I just ended up doing her extensions because we didn't have time. We ended up trying the braid in Amber's blog...

When we got back from the Cup, Kate busted out another set of extensions and said I needed them and that she was going to play with my hair (thank you so much Kate!!!). She ended up putting all of them in my hair and then in a ponytail. Although it looked awesome (still need to color the extensions), it was heavy and once she braided it, my head was already feeling the pain of the weight (i don't know how people with dreads do it) . Some pics...

I was playing in my hotel in Portland last night and trip the braid as Amber describes at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElcddThnrCs&list=TLnC-kJZCroqw and it wasn't so painful.

Once I dye them, they will blend a bit better, but not too bad. They are fun and an easy way to spice it up.
