Hair Extension Care?

I'm getting long, black, and blonde hair extensions from Sally's Beauty supply store, and my friend who is in cosmotology is going to put them in for me with glue. Is there a better way to put them in? I hear glue is a messy choice, and it's hard to take out. My hair is thin, and dyed black, so i dont want any color or hair damage afterwards. when i get them in, how do i take care of my own hair while taking care of the extensions? do they need to have seperate attention? what about in the shower? do i need a special shampoo? is there other alternatives that are easier than glue? I hear when african-american girls get weaves they have to put baby oil on them to keep them from drying them out, does the same apply to extensions?

I would not recommend the glue. It dosen't last long and ur pieces can get pulled out or fall out if brushing too hard. LOL. I personally get a sew-in. And with the glue it is hard to wash out.

And if u buy good (expensive) hair u wont need to put anything on it to keep it from drying out. Buy hair that is $40 and up and u wont have any problems with it.

African Americans do not use oil to maintain their extensions they use mouse, and you will use mouse to maintain yours. Also, the best way to put your extensions in is through the sewing process. The hair is cornrolled and then weaved, or sewed into the cornrow. The hair that you will be using is synthetic, it is advertised as human however, unless you pay 100.00 dollars or more for the hair, it is symthetic. So, you can not wash it everyday. Actually, you can not wash it at all. Causian hair can be washed everyday, to rid oil. However, symthetic hair doesn't have it. Good luck.
