Adventures of the Piece

Weave, piece, extensions, wig, hairpiece, falsie, rat tail.


I have recently invested in a piece.


Here's how it happened.


I dye my hair a lot and therefore it is frequently fried and it gets frizzy as I grow it out. I don't have the patience to grow my hair very long.


The other day I was wandering through the Beverly Center in West Hollywood and I happened upon a salon supply center. There was a crowd of women gathered around a rack and as I pushed my way to the front, I realized that they were fighting over the remaining items left on the new Jessica Simpson and her minion Ken Paves' "hairdo" line. Yes, Jessica Simpson is hawking wigs.


One lady was offering free consultations -- she was the proud owner of one curly piece and was investing in a second straight extension. She helped me pick out the perfect color and gave me the confidence to go ahead with my purchase.


I now have long hair when I feel like it. It is my new favorite beauty accessory, my lipfinity now ranks second.


I have piece pride.

Sometimes Dax likes to wear my piece like a mullet.

Mimi needs one, but just on the sides. Congrats, you have joined the proud white girl extension club of Britney and Paris.

What exactly do you feed a hair extension? Cheese? Peanut butter? Feed me Seymore.

Ellie, you just brought tears to my eyes I am laughing so hard. I fed my wedding piece bumble and bumble extra fancy conditioner. I think I should have saved some cash and gone with cheese.
