The Only Way Is The Lush Us Way

Ever since the first breed of WAG rocked hair extensions, I've loved them. As far as I'm concerned the longer and thicker, the better.
But, unlike VB I had to blow dry my own. Back in the day, this meant matted bonds, thinning ends and shedding which left hair 4ft deep on the cream carpets.
I gave up and the extension craze passed...... for a couple of years. When TOWIE started, I wanted them back...... I didn't care what people thought. The Essex look is reem.
But after Lauren Goodger (alledgely. Ahem.) gave Jess Wright a bald patch and with Katie Price constantly tweeting about her extensions taking 14 days and then emerging looking like she'd been dragged through a hedge backwards, media types took it upon themselves to slate any extra hair to within an inch of it's life.
Basically, hair exetensions couldn't get away from their bad name. But then I spotted Lush Us advertising for models for their brand new training school. I couldn't turn them down now, could I......

Lush Us have done my extensions in the past, and have always, always made an excellent job of them, however I can tell they have moved forward in leaps and bounds.

I was lucky enough to be a model on the teacher training day - which meant I had a whole room of qualified teachers applying my extensions.
The training school is so thorough, they hold these days to make sure all of the teachers train their pupils in the same way and the people getting extensions from the company are in completley safe hands.

Although they were fully aware I had had extensions before, I was still taken through a survey to make sure I understood how to care for the hair and what was going to happen. It's so reassuring to know these people don't just want to glue hair to your roots and leave you to it!

They ask you why you want the extensions and cater to your requirements. The fact I wanted to look like an 'Essex version of Cheryl Cole' didn't even faze them.....
Before the Lush Us treatment....

I was given pre bonded hair extensions after my problems with shedding in the past. Although promised I would notice a difference, I was still dubious.....
However I have never known anything like it before. I can actually brush my hair in public, which is a miracle! There was no shedding whatsoever for at least 2 weeks and now is at an absolute minimum. Furthermore, I have not lost one bond at all.

I have heard hundreds of horror stories on products to use on extentions on the past. Lush Us will only recommend their own. I can honestly say, this is not just for the company to make money. The products have been fully tested and the team are confident in saying if there are any problems with the hair when using their products, they will look into them fully.

The products are amazing. They smell fantastic and keep the hair in a condition I have never seen extensions in before - especially the Argan Oil.

After the Lush Us treatment :)

Lush Us is the perfect company to use whether you want extensions fitted, or even want to be trained how to fit them.
They care so much about what they do and it makes a real difference.
The advice you are given is second to none, and I am told them are currently developing an after care class to ensure clients get even more out of their hair.

I would not go any where else for my extensions ever again, and I certainly will not be taking them out.
Although, I will be staying away from Lauren Goodger.....

  1. Wow Amy thanks for such a fab blog with Lush-Us in mind. It looks like Ive paid you for this one .....lol (I'll pay ya later....lol) I am so glad you love your hair and we are really passionate about the care and correct application of extensions. Most of our customers are trained extensionists buying our hair but we also want their clients to fully understand the importance of correct aftercare and also the things that could go wrong and what to do if it does.....I am in the process of writing a book (as if I haven't got enough to do) for Hair Extension wearers. It is a 'how to' guide but will be written light heartedly to ensure the reading is fun yet seriously informative as it will actually be delivering some really important info....... I'll maybe send you a few notes from it as I think your creative writing skills far outweigh mine....I should maybe just stick to Hair Extensions. Thanks again AMY and you look far more beautiful than and 'Essex Cheryl COle' but we knew what you meant ....lol xxx
