im thinkin of getting Racoon hair extensions has anyone hade any had these done at all im trying to find out the pro's & con's before i go ahead and payout for um.....anyone??

In reply to your question. I have just had racoon hair extensions fitted. They look great and he stylist has blended the hair into my own with no visible lines. I will say that the down side is that they are extremely high maintenence and as my hair is quite blond these extensions can become quite dry and you will need to condition them every other day. They do also become quite matted in the wind! That said, they are really great for a change, but beware mine cost me over £600!

hi,

I would definately go ahead and get them, i got mine done last week with Racoon it did cost me nearly £800 cause they were really long and my hair is blonde but totally worth the money! but like the last msg said they are high maintenance but look fab!!

Beware! I had Racoon extensions on the 20/12 & was told they'd last at least 3 months. Within days they'd started to fall out which often happens but they also shed like real hair so my remaining extensions now look really thin & sparse. I'm no stranger to extensions but they're the hardest to maintain. They look really good when done professionally but I'm really disappointed & feel I've wasted £600 as I'm getting them taken out next week. Good luck.

Hi, i am wearing racoon hair extensions for the second time now after having my hair cut to shoulder length what a nightmare. They are very expensive i had just 14 inch ones and they cost £450.00 but they are great. I am not finding them high maintainance at all, just treat them like your own hair but keep conditioner off of the bonds. The down side is that after just 5 weeks i feel like mine are getting a bit thin as they shed quite a bit but you can get your stylist to order you 25g of hair and have them bulked up a bit. Last time i had them i wore them for a whopping 9 months and had maintainance checks about every 6 weeks, very expensive but if they are done properly you will feel like a million dollars. Good luck.

I would like to get hair extensions - i live on the border with Devon/Somerset - has anyone used a local salon they can please recommend?

i got cinderella extensions which is very similar. they are very high maintenance and start to come out after a few weeks. would be okay if u go to salon get replacement ones put in and get the other bonds 'tightened'

if u have quite thick or long hair you would only need approx 3/4 head of hair. mine cost £365 for 18'' at a afro carribean salon here.
