If something was given away for free, would you then pay an outside source to retrieve it? The common sense answer would be no or at least not much. Paying for something free is ignorant, especially when the person who gave it away doesn’t even want it. They gave it away frivolously for either religious reasons or no reason at all. Unfortunately, not that many people have common sense. Today buyers are spending thousands and thousands of dollars on something they already possess, just to commit to a standard society has claimed relevant. Hair weave, hair extensions, fake hair, and wigs are known for being the biggest money maker in the hair industry. With prices ranging from $9.99 to $1,000+, it is ridiculous that women spend all the money they have to get someone else’s hair attached to their head. Human Hair can be collected for retail by donators who either knowingly or unknowingly know their hair is going to be on someone’s head. If these commodities are being acquired for free then why aren’t they more affordable to the public? That is why the price of hair extensions/weave should be brought down to a more affordable and economical cost. Hair extensions, weaves, fake hair, and/or wigs can stem from various places across the world. Commonly, pure human hair is collected from areas in Asia, Eastern Europe, and India. Those are where the best quality human hair can be found. Although there are no limitations to where quality human hair can from, the Far East is known for their good quality. Extensions/weaves/fake hair can either be manufactured to seem like human hair or can be human hair. Both processes are complicated; creating fake hair or collecting human hair is not easy. Fake hair (non-human hair) manufacturers deal with ... ... middle of paper ... ...r trade. Those who are involved, if professionally trained, will never go broke. Granted the equation used to price hair extensions has many factors, there is no reason for the inflated price to exceed $500+. Retailers are yet to consider buyers reasons and needs to purchase hair extensions. For those victims of cancer and alopecia who just want to feel attractive, a quality wig can do that. For the average person climbing the economic ladder, affordable hair extensions can contribute to their success. For those who donate their hair knowingly or unknowingly, would be proud to know that their contribution to the hair industry is inexpensive for consumers from all demographics. Manufactures will be able to reach more consumers if the price is affordable for all class levels. Affordable hair extension, weaves, and wigs will do good for all consumers and manufactures.

Just because a hair is found at the scene doesn’t mean that it belongs to the perpetrator. It is important to take Locard’s Principle into account, “The microscopic debris that cover our bodies are the mute witnesses... of all our movements and all our encounters.” (Robertson, 7.2) When you come into contact with something or someone, there is always a transfer, even if it isn’t noticeable. There are different types of transferring, primary and secondary. Primary transfer is when something transfers from you to another source. When someone comes into contact with that source, there is a chance that your hair or fiber transfers onto the other person. This is secondary transfer. Because humans shed hair frequently, it is easy for hair to go through secondary transfer and end up somewhere that the individual had never been. Hair can remain on a source for a couple hours without being transferred and it does not break down very easily, so this can remain in place for a long time. (Robertson,
The title of Soto’s “Black Hair” is very ordinary. The image that forms from the color “black” serving as an adjective to describe the common noun “hair” paints a mundane picture that does not allow for any analysis beneath this concrete image. But in cases where the title is not an attention getter, the content of the poem is usually more of a challenge and Soto’s “Black Hair” is a perfect example. As the title suggests, there are many concrete images and figures presented throughout the poem, but after a close reading it is apparent that the underlying themes of family and culture lay beneath these tangible images through the poetic elements of the metonymy, the metaphor, color imagery, and the pun.
In the recent past year or two, a woman’s natural hair has become a big thing. Before, African American women, to be specific, were so disgusted by their hair.

According to 10 Weird and Wacky Beauty Facts by Andrea Lavinthal, in ancient Greece, the most sought-after hair color was blond. Not many Greeks were naturally blond, so light hair was probably perceived as beautiful because it was so exotic. Women would lighten their hair using plant extracts or arsenic. They also washed their locks with a mixture of ashes, olive oil, and water. She also explained how “it was a shame that extension weren’t available during the Heian period when a Japanese woman’s beauty was judges by the length of her hair, since the ideal was considered almost two feet longer than her waist. We’re assuming that ponytails were a popular hairstyle back then.” There are many other crazy facts about beauty facts like Vaseline makes your eyelashes grow and can take off makeup, or if your finger nails are discolored from using dark polish, use a slice of lemon on them and they will regain their color (The beauty magazine, Roselyn Miller, pg. 67). Going into the field of Cosmetology helps you express yourself and it brings out your inner creativity. That is one of the many reason I love this line of work, because when I do hair it lets me express myself while creating a hairstyle of my own. The first time I started doing hair was when I was about 10 or 11, I was a natural! I want to be able to know my clients and exactly what will look right on my clients and read people, so I would know what they do like just by talking to them. I need to learn to separate family from business. I do know some things about this field I before this assignment that cosmetology is not just about doing hair, it’s also about learning about the Skin; Doing make up, eye lashes, etc. You also learn about nails; doing a...
Having long, healthy hair could possibly be one of the envied genes amongst women. Many women take supplements or undergo surgery to provide them with the added confidence of having luxurious hair. Although, those methods have been proven to work, there are many other less invasive methods available for obtaining beautiful hair. The use of hair extensions have become a popular trend in today’s society. Many celebrities, TV personalities and even politicians have owned up to adding a few hair extensions here and there. Hair extensions can be used to add length and volume to thin, short and receding hair. However, finding a beautician to install them can be bit pricy for the average individual. Being able to install them on your own can not only save you thousands of dollars a year in salon costs, it can also be used as a trade to make some additional cash on the side.

According to Modern Salon/Vance Publishing, total salon industry revenue is predicted to be $42 billion in 2016. How is it possible for a service sector like the beauty industry to continue to grow, given the state of the economy? No doubt because many of the services offered by salons simply cannot be duplicated at home--or at least not duplicated well. In addition, in an age where people freely shell out $59.95 a month for cellular service or hundreds of dollars to lease the latest car model with the most bells and whistles, the price of a haircut probably doesn't seem very high considering the lift it can give your spirits. Also, the baby boomers, who now constitute the largest population segment in America, are more than willing and are financially able to spend money on any personal care service they perceive will make them look younger and more attractive.
