Do extensions cause hair loss?
I'm thinking of getting hair extensions for my sister's wedding next month, but my cousin warned me they might cause hair loss. Is there any truth to this? I'm worried about damaging my natural hair.

My sister got hair extensions last year and she lost a lot of hair near her temples because they were pulled too tight. If you don't give your scalp a break, it literally damages the roots. Better be careful.
Do not rely on parlor advice saying extensions are completely safe. Heavy extensions cause traction alopecia due to constant pulling on hair follicles. If you notice severe thinning, stop using them and see a dermatologist immediately.
They look super pretty but yes, they can cause some hair fall if left in for too long! 💇♀️ Just make sure to get them done by a professional and don't skip your maintenance appointments!
Honestly, I used clip-in extensions for my cousin's wedding and my scalp was hurting so much by the end of the day. The permanent ones are even heavier and can definitely lead to breakage. It's best to use them occasionally rather than permanently.

I've seen many young girls in our family face hair thinning after getting micro-ring extensions. The weight of the artificial hair puts constant stress on your natural roots, leading to shedding. If you must use them, choose lightweight ones and keep them for short durations.
