Long and straight How she did it: "I blow dried my bangs to the side and sprayed with hairspray. Then, I clipped in long, straight faux hair under my crown (try Hairdo by Jessica Simpson 21" 100% Fine Human Hair Extensions, $186) and brushed my hair and the extensions gently to blend the fibers. To add more style to the straight look, I created a little French braid on the side opposite my bangs -- stopping right at my ear."

My grandmother had lovely waist-length hair into her eighties. She would braid it during the day and looked beautiful! Some great ideas here!

Too bad no one has really made any comments about their use of the extensions. I would really like to know if the more expensive ones are worth the price.
