Word of Mouth

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow!

By Whitney Spaner

As some of you might know, I'm a little bit into hair. I have always had a (maybe not so) secret dream of supplementing my already long blond locks with extensions that would add some thickness and length a la Blake Lively. But, of course, getting them at a salon is very expensive, and the idea that I could leave one behind at a party, in a cab or (god forbid) a bed is a bit unnerving. But the other day the extension fairies came to the PAPER offices and dropped down temporary hair in my exact color! Can you guess which picture I'm wearing them in?

The temporary hair is by Paris Hilton's line with Sally Beauty called Clipin-Go by Paris Hilton and yes, Paris graces the box, but I didn't let that stop me. The hair comes in one piece and it clips onto the back of your head starting by your ears and wrapping around to the other side. It's not hard to put on -- PAPER's Lysee Webb did the honors and although I could feel them they weren't uncomfortable.

I wore them around the office, to lunch with my mom, who was visiting, and out at night with my roommates -- and no one even noticed until I told them! Even my own mother! Once they knew they had a hard time deciphering what was my real hair and what was fake. The piece added the little bit of length that I'd been wanting and some much needed thickness. I will definitely wear it again when I want to channel my inner Gossip Girl.

Visit their website to add some hair to your head for much less than Britney Spears pays.
