    Finding someone good to fit hair extensions

    How does one find a good extensionist? I can't find anyone one at all locally! I'm ideally looking for micro/nano rings but I would consider other types if I could find someone

    Live xxl can someone explain

    Yes and no. the way I've always seen it is there are the active ingredients, the ones that are doing what the product is supposed to do. There are the ingredients that make the actives perform as well as it can and there the ones that they put in to make it 'what the customer expects' ie...

    there may be but it's a small town, i would have to tell them where to get hair that long. Besides I'm scared of being laughed at if I ask a real hairdresser before I know the actual answer! Just so you know the longest bits of my hair are waist length, but its very thin until about chest...

    The Daily Mail's review of Tesco's salons

    Tell me why you don't want me in your salon? I hate Tesco with a vengeance but a salon in Tesco would get my money...and here's why. Convenience. I work shifts and i don't know 2 weeks in advance when i'll be free for an appointment (I also hate phoning people). I have a hole in my tooth that...
