The process of choosing the best discount hair extensions is nearly the same as choosing full price hair extensions. In addition to matching the hair color and finding a quality that you are comfortable with, compare prices for the best deals. Most packages of hair extensions have an identifying name, number, or both, so write this down and search for the exact product on the Internet. To save on fuel, call nearby beauty supply stores to have the salespeople confirm the availability of the product and their price. You may also want to choose a lower quality item if on a budget and your preferred discount hair extensions are still too expensive.
Hair extension cost varies greatly depending on the quality. In general, a high quality extension will last longer and look better than a low quality one. Ask for recommendations from friends, family or beauty salons that sell hair extensions. In addition, you can look at reviews online to see how happy people were with specific products. If you can't afford an expensive, high quality extension that lasts three months and can be recycled into different styles, at least purchase extensions that look real, even if they will not last as long.
The most difficult part of choosing discount hair extensions is matching the color of extensions to your own hair color. For a realistic look, the color should be close enough that most people cannot tell the difference. This comparison should be done in person, even if the best discount hair extensions are online. Computer monitors and settings differ, making colors slightly to significantly different for everyone. If you attempt to match the color by only viewing the hair color online, you may be shipped hair extensions that do not look realistic at all.
When you have chosen the perfect color and preferred quality and brand, shop around. In addition to visiting brick and mortar beauty supply stores, look online for good deals. Write down the exact name of the product including the hair color code in order to later search for the specific product you have decided on. Ebay® and similar websites are good places to start, but you can also use a search engine or visit a comparison shopping website. Never buy from a merchant with poor feedback and, if possible, use a debit or credit card that can later refund your money if the item never arrives.
