I know that I want hair extensions, but just the clip-in kind that are like $80 at Sally Beauty Supply. I've heard wonderful things about them and I have decided to get them. But the problem is that my hair changes colors frequently. I have dark brown hair currently, but the shade always changes. If I decide to get a dark shade of brown hair extensions, and my hair lightens a bit, will the extensions look stupid ? It won't be a huge difference in color but I want to make sure. Will I have to keep dying it to make sure it stays the same dark brown color ?

The trick is to get extensions a shade darker than your hair, since the underhair is always naturally darker than the top. I work at a salon and that is the standard for a more natural look. So if your top hair does lighten because of the sun or for whatever reason, it will not look bad - it will actually be preferred.
However, if the difference bothers you just curl your hair. Wavy/curled hair complimements two tones (colors) in your hair. That way, you still won't have to spend money on hair dye.
I wouldn't worry about the color, if it is close enough it will look good :) Just make sure you stle your hair when you wear the clip ins to insure they look natural and beautiful!

Though if you want to dye your hair to just make sure you should do that. You don't want to spend all that money asnd not like it.
