I loved this Stella McCartney window display at Liberty. The display spanned across 4 windows spelling out ‘we love Stella McCartney’, using different props- but this first window was by far my favourite!

That’s right, Kate Gosselin’s extensions are coming out.

But that doesn’t quite mean the former reality star will go back to the trademark backwards mullet that she has become best known for.

Celebrity hairstylist Ted Gibson told RadarOnline.com that he’s taking Gosselin’s $7,000 extensions out on Wednesday, and though she’ll have her short hair back for the day, he’s giving her a new ‘do on Thursday.

“We’ll be doing color, we’ll be doing extensions, we’ll be getting her ready for her premiere on ‘Dancing With the Stars!’” Gibson said, adding that the 34-year-old mother of eight’s new locks will include a few different shades of blond. “The extensions will last through the whole time she’s on the show.”

Gosselin has already begun rehearsing for the hit ABC show, which premieres March 22nd.

According to Gibson, she’s got a shot at winning the competition.

“I think she has a good chance, I think people love to watch her, I think she’s interesting,” he told Radar. “When she was here last week she said she been trying really, really hard at dancing and she doesn’t feel like she’s necessarily a dancer but I think she’s having a good time and that’s going to show, that she’s having a good time.”

Poor people are not worth a beautiful skin or a beautiful body that is why all these beauty products are priced at a premium rate so that only a particular section of the society remains worth it. How else would Mrs. Lal look younger than her maid Lalli? After all not everyone can afford a cream worth Rs.650/- or a monthly facial worth Rs.1500/-

But the scene is not that bad as you might think. The unorganized sector of domestic maids is also seeing the economic boom, at least in metros. That is why, my maid could go to a neighborhood  parlor to get threading done, she could ask the tailor for the making charges of a dress which she saw in Vogue, she could be picky about the Almond drops and Fructis shampoo and the Ponds cream.  Am I jealous? Well a little bit. After all who would feel happy to be clubbed with her maid and being seen at the same parlor sitting next to each other? Snobbish? Yes it is and that is why I believe, Socialism, Marxism are  failed theories because there would always be class divide and we shall ensure that the divide remains. How else would we feel special and a little “hat ke” ?  So what if my maid has dinner with me on the same table and eats the same food, so what if we watch TV together and sometimes I would cook continental for her which she would hate, so what if she once in a while sips port wine with us? I still cannot be seen at the same parlor with her. It’s a social crime.

The maids are trying hard to dress like their madams, in Capri and makeup. They try hard to ape us like we ape the phirangs but can they win? May be not today but after few generations later, they will. As long as we have enough open land where they can go to poo, till that time we will remain their Madams. The day they get a western commode in their homes we will lose whatever little luxury we have. Therefore it is very important for us to buy even bigger and pompous real estate, huge cars and expensive holidays. And then, when they become like us, we would show them our austerity drive, our fight for a social cause and our Botox and our B job.

You see the race will never end, someone will always try to catch up with us and thus it is more important for us to run even faster. The faster we run, the difficult it is for anyone to catch up and be like us. So we have to keep the prices high. Till then they can stick to shampoo sachets and we will stick to our hair extensions.

Vandaag moest ik denken aan het bekende sprookje van Grimm: Raponsel. Een triest verhaal over een beeldschoon meisje dat door een heks opgesloten wordt in een toren. Elke avond roept de heks, “raponsel raponsel laat je hair extensions neer”.

Het lied “Someday my prince will come”, zou haar stemming waarschijnlijk treffend beschrijven.

De prins komt inderdaad, maar wreed verstoord de heks vervolgens het sprookje. Ze knipt de weelderige lange haren van Raponsje en laat de prins opklimmen langs de hair extensions, 100% human hair.

Bij ons in de afrosalon aan de grote gracht 14 in Maastricht kun je gewoon binnenlopen, dat dan weer wel. We hebben behalve hair extensions ook weaves, we ontkroesen, verven en knippen mannen en vrouwen.

The term “hair extension” refers to numerous techniques of enhancing ones natural hair by adding other hair to it. This “commercial” hair can originate from all over the world, usually collected for this specific purpose and comes in many lengths, colors and textures. Sometimes synthetic hair is used, depending on the technique and desired result. These hair additions can either be temporary, such as clip-in pieces and wiglets, etc. or they can be anchored to the natural hair in a semi-permanent fashion.

Methods for extending the hair vary and it seems there’s a new one everyday! Many extension artists will master several techniques. This is to more adequately service the different and particular needs of their clients. When choosing a suitable method, many factors should be taken into consideration. The “finished look” may be your biggest concern, but longevity, possible hair damage and ease of care are just as important.

Common methods are pole weaving, braid weaving, interlock, weft bonding, half braids, micro knotting and the hot glue technique. Using hot melt adhesive is sometimes known as “fusion” or “bonding”. This can be a little confusing at first (which is one reason for the lengthy dissertation). but don’t worry, we’re here to help you sort it all out.

A year and a half ago, I had my hair cut really short – about an inch or so all around. At the time, I thought it was farewell to long hair. I am in my forties, and somewhere in the back of my mind was the notion that age thirty-five was the cutoff point ( no pun intended) for long hair. But I missed my hair, missed being able to braid it or ponytail it or just wind it around my finger in idle moments, and so I let it grow again, to the point where it’s now right back where it started, two or three inches below the collarbone. This made me feel like a backslider, until I learned, just recently, that there was an epidemic of long hair on the runways for the spring collections. Almost all the supermodels showed up with silky, shiny, pancake-flat hair down to the waist or lower, and the jet-set ingénues-who-count quickly followed suit.

Long hair, very long hair, much longer than mine, is suddenly de rigueur. How did this happen, and where does it leave me?
Everybody knows you can’t grow hair like that overnight. There was clearly been a big run on hair extensions, falls and other additives, so I decided to go to see Rodolfo Valentin, a leading designer of high-end hair extensions and hair pieces.

Rodolfo Valentin is six-three, Argentine-born, flamboyant, and no more burdened with modesty than his near-namesake, Rodolfo Valentino. His shoulder-length black hair goes awfully well with his black boots, black jeans. and black velvet shirt unbuttoned to the waist. ” I do plastic surgery with hair”,says Rodolfo, whose business had doubled in the last year. As we speak, he is attaching twelve-inch long strands of hair to a customer’s head with keratin protein, seven strands at a time, row on row.

Rodolfo Valentin sells to the biggest salons in Manhattan and he does royalty in Europe, movie stars in South America, he loves hair…” the day I die, I would like no flowers, just lots of hair, hair, hair”…Rodolfo makes ponytails that come in three lengths, from eight inches to two feet long. He makes clip-on bangs, falls that are attached to headbands, and “umbrellas” to add fullness. He uses only real hair, every hair going the same way, root to end, and he buys only the best. “Italian hair is supposed to be the top”, he tells me. Next to Italian, he likes hair from Spain. Sweden and the Nordic countries provide his blond hair. He doesn’t much like Asia hair, because it’s “too heavy, too thick individually, and very weak”, but hair from India is fine, “thin and strong”. Blond hair is more expensive than brown, of course, blond ponytails run from $ 800 and his brunettes from $ 600. I ask him about my hair- could it be longer? “Absolutely”. It will be a sophisticated look for you to have very long hair, but with a limit, probably not more than six inches longer. Six inches would come down below my breasts. Could I really do that?. “You have a young look, and your long hair is helping you”.2010 Long hairstyles
