Question:
I have full head extensions that have been perfect the past few months. When I have them replaced should I consider donating the hair to an organization such as Locks Of Love, or is it possible that they be reused in some useful way?

Answer:
Giving away your used hair extensions is a nice thought but generally not very practical. Hair extensions have pretty much worn themselves out by time you are ready to have them removed. Re-cleaning, processing, and cutting extensions for use by someone else is labor intensive and does not restore the hair to its original condition.
Most hair extension specialists are in favor of throwing the old hair extensions in the bin and moving on. Sometimes however, make-up artists at local community theatres are interested in lengths-of-hair to help touch up an actor’s appearance. Check around.
