feather extensions - what do you think?



I know I might be a little late to the whole trend, but I have been meaning to do another post incorporating my lovely sponsors (See here if you are interested in future opinion posts! It's completely free!). So I figured that the new craze, feather extensions, would be a great topic. Last time I did an opinion blog I got a lot of different views, and I want to see even more this time! You hear (see?) that people? I want to see what YOU think! (That means comment! Comment! Comment!) Anyway, on to the post - Sorry, I have a hard time keeping track of what I am writing. :p




Yep, we have upgraded from the pink and blue hair extensions (remember when everyone thought that was SO cool?). The new hair trend is making peacocks and quails shiver in their feathers. Feather extensions. I don't know who really came up with this idea, but they have to be pretty proud of how their idea is taking the fashion/beauty world by storm. I mean, I would. Who would've thought that people would want to put feathers in their hair...when I first heard about this trend I was thinking that people were putting nasty duck feathers in their hair, but to my surprise, they were not.  Figures, I had no idea what I was thinking. Lol. ANYWAY - Here are a couple of my blogging friends opinions. 



"I LOVE feather hair extensions, even though I don't have any. I think that they add a touch of whimsy to your everyday hair. :) That being said, I also think that they're a little too popular for me, now. Haha! But if I were to get some, I'd stick with the natural colors. I think those can look really chic!"
- Gentri from Gentri Lee

"I am alllll in for feather hair extensions! I think they're so beautiful and add that extra "pop" to any outfit! I personally love the look of some of the ones with beads, they're so pretty and cute! Feather extensions all the way" 
- Lauren from The Perfect Pear

"YAY definitely! LOVE the idea! Defineitely would like to try themself :)"
- Holly from Miss Fashion Beauty

"I personally think that they are HOT. Totally cute, and I think that they will look even better in the upcoming fall season with the brown and green feathers. I would totally get some proffesionally done, but I don't have money...so that won't work. i do have a clip in pair, and they are totally cute. I think that anyone can work them, really. From blonde hair to black, from short hair to long. But I don't think that they would really work on a pixi-cut...maybe, I guess you never know. Lol. All in all, I believe that yes, this is a trend and they will be out of style in no time, but for now they are a fun and spunky way of making your hair look interesting! :)"
- Me. :)



So, what do you guys think? Super cute, or super wierd?

  11. i love the idea of feather extensions. i was even asked by a company if they could send me some to review them on my site but i had to say no- the problem is that i have half black hair- super curly, kinky hair. I cant make the commitment of the feather extensions because I have to blow dry my hair super hard and i would pull out my hair when doing it! HOWEVER!!! I posted a tutorial on clip in feather extensions on my blog! :)

    the style projects

  14. I don't know if you're an animal lover like me, but I'm completely against them unless they are fake feathers. I don't wear fur and I don't wear feathers. I just feel killing animals to be trendy is never a good thing.

  20. I for the past year I have been totally wanting to get some! I think they are totally cute.
    By the way Rach, if you don't want to try feather extensions, try hair tinsel first. Its awesome :) My sisters and I do it all the time and they last a long while. You can get them in colors and they are great. Hair tinsel makes you hair look like its shimmering

    If you want to see some pics of it you can just google hair tinsel and they will come up :)

  32. LOVE feather extensions! Got some back in April when my hairdresser asked if I wanted to try them out...not knowing of this up and coming trend I thought I'd try it out. Of course, at the time no one had them, and then BAM everyone had them. Including little girls down to the age of 5 which all and all just weirded me out I was sporting a trend a 5 year old was wearing :(

    Overall though, this is one of my favorite trends of the summer!
