Don't laugh.  Whether your extensions create more volume or give you that extra length; there comes a point in every relationship where you might need to have "the talk." When? For new wearers this is a frequently asked question. Within days of getting the extended locks they naturally feel like your own.  You are comfortable and confident leaving those around you, including your partner, clueless to the makeup of your gorgeous "do".  However, one day, maybe soon, in a moment of spontaneous intimacy... hands will run through your gorgeous head of hair to perhaps notice the tiny bead-bonds holding it securely to...

The team at Donna Bella hair extensions had another great show at IBS New York 2008. IBS NY is always a fun show because stylists attend from all over the world. In years past, we’ve noticed a lot of our new stylists come to us with little or no experience with hair extensions. However, due to its popularity, we now notice a lot of stylists are switching to Donna Bella after using other companies' products.

Technology and society have come a long way, and now every skin color under the rainbow, with its accompanying hair type, is being treated in a unique way by stylists all over the world.
