Help with hair extensions please

I want to try some hair extensions but don't know where to start.

I just want the clip in ones.

Where do I get them from? Is there a brand that is better than others? What if they are too long? Can you get different lengths? How long can you keep them in for? And how easy are they to put in.

Any advice would be fab. Thanks

I bought these: 18" Clip In Real Human Hair Extensions Full Head -Pukka,
from ebay to try out as I thought the price reasonable for a trial.

The colour is a perfect match to mine (quite suprised there!).
I only put them in for a day at a time as I find them irritating after a while.
Yes you can get different lengths - I got 18 inches and they look a lot longer once in place than they do in the packet.
They take about five minutes to put in, but, I curled the extensions with a hot wand and put them on the side, curled my hair then put the extensions in and 'fluffed' it all up with my fingers to get it all to mix in (think I'm spending too much time with my SD !!!)
hubby said it looks good btw.

Marking my place as am thinking about some for parties after a slightly hormone driven mum cut.

Not quite sure what I or the hairdresser was thinking. Oh well, at least it's not party season. Oh.

I was thinking of tryin the clip in extensions too. I lobbed all my long hair off to get a bob cut in :(
Been growing it out for 4 month now. Really miss my long hair!
