Guest Post by Christopher Box of Hair Extension Geek All About Hair Extensions!!!

Good evening my fellow lacquered lovers!  Happy Wednesday to you all!  Tonight, I have a really special post for you all!  As some of you may have seen, during NYFW I had the very amazing opportunity to get hair extension!  I had met a fabulous stylist, Christopher Box, while backstage at a show in February.  When he was coming back for Fashion Week in September, he asked if I'd like to try out some great tape in hair extensions from Easihair Pro.  Since cutting off my hair last year I've been missing my long locks so I jumped at the chance!  You can read all about my adventure at Lacquered Lover Gets EasiHair Pro Extension for NYFW!  


I absolutely love them!  Since then I've gotten a ton of questions from you guys all across my social media (as well as questions from everyone who has seen me in person) about the extensions.  Who better to tell you about them than the man who did them?  Now, without further ado, I give you Christopher Box!

I met Carly at NYFW last season behind the scenes of Porter Gray. I was there supporting easihair pro extensions. You wouldn't believe how much extensions are used on the models of Fashion Week!

Carly was super cool and gave me some fab suggestions on restaurants in NYC. We swapped some conversation about her blog and mine: www.hairextensiongeek.com. She gave me her card and when I got back I checked out her blog site: www.lacqueredlover.com. I loved her style and I realized immediately that our sites were very much related. In my opinion, nails are extensions too!

Flash forward to Fally 2012: I was green lighted from easihair pro to do some makeovers on some beauty bloggers while back in town for New York Fashion Week. Carly was the first person that popped into my mind. I knew she would be perfect for easilengths tape hair extensions. 

I got her scheduled and ended up applying the extensions in a teeny tiny tic tac sized hotel room. She was a great sport about the cramped space. I think maybe the wine helped a little. When I got done I was in love with her big sexy hair. She really knows how to carry the look well. A lot of what makes something work is the attitude behind it. 

I realized when I got done doing Carly's hair extension makeover that she probably would be getting lots and lots of questions about her new look. That's why when I got back to Hair Extension Geek Headquarters I went through our archives and put together my top 10 Favorite Hair Extension Blog Posts.

Educational and Entertaining, these posts will give you all the info you need to get your very own hair extension makeover!

  5. Hair extensions can last up to six months if they are of high quality and are well taken care of. And if you are going to invest much money on high quality human hair extensions, of course you are going to take the best care of them possible. Making sure you know how to take care of your human hair extension is very important in keeping them looking natural and in good shape.

  7. Your hair extension is certainly a great idea for those who want to be on the go! I also find it very useful to consider the eindianhair.com reviews. They offered human hair extension so you do not need to worry that others will notice you are wearing hair extension because it is not visible.

  13. I have had some extensions from other suppliers previously, but nothing compares to the quality of these you have sent to me! Also, the clips are very strong, and because they are a muted colour, they are undetectable, unlike the silver clips, which can sometimes be seen. hair extensions
