Fake Extensions or Real Extensions?

[SkinnyBones]

I use synthetic hair extensions almost daily and I love having longer hair!
Does anyone have Remmy extensions that are real?
Or real extensions in general? If so are they better quality than synthetic?

I use a ton of extensions and recently put a lot of dreads in. I use human and this is my main reasoning, though I do use synthentic and have no complaints. Human needs more maintenance which is a disadvantage.

Human hair last much longer, usually about a year.
Human hair can be dyed, which I do a ton of.

Human hair does cost more, but last 3-4 times longer also.

Otherwise, no big difference, they both look real.

Just like Abby said, there's no difference in appearance.

I have human hair extensions, which I don't use, but do have, and my friend has some synthetic ones that she wears almost daily and you can't tell that it's not real, if you didn't know her hair was short, you wouldn't even guess she was wearing extensions at all.

I love you and I apologize because you are about to get a billion questions!!
Can you straighten human hair extensions, because with synthetic you can't.
Can you curl human hair?
What type of shampoo/conditioner do you use to keep them in shape, because I am not sure which would be the best.

Yes, you can either straighten or curl them if they are 100% human hair. The higher quality ones work much better. Dying and any work you do on them, does shorten the life some because they are chemically treated. So I buy bought curly and straighten ones, but that can get expensive, so since they cost more and don't abuse them like I do, you should be just fine curling or straightening them.

Because of cleaning them more often the ends tend to be an area of concern and again you got the money involved with it. I'd try this first to save money.
Use baby shampoo and a SPRAY ON conditioner only. I was Pureology products but these are worth the investment. It will help the human hair last longer.

Hope this helps, I am a hair abuser and I have failed, but this would be my advice.

Take care and I'm around if you have anymore questions.
