Hair Feather Extensions

Buy Hair Feather Extensions Online

Hair extensions have been around for quite some time, but something new is taking shape in the world of hair extensions. Both women and men are now sporting brightly colored feathers attached to locks of their hair. Perhaps the best example of someone who likes feather hair extensions is Steven Tyler. When he appeared on his first season of American Idol, things really took off for hair feathers.

The demand for feather hair extensions became so great that hair salons couldn’t keep up with the demand. And as to be expected the price for these feathers skyrocketed. What wasn’t really expected was the impact this craze has had on fly fisherman and the supplier of rooster feathers to those who tie their own fly fishing flies. You see, there is only one supplier of these feathers for both the fly fishing market and the market for those who tie these feathers into their hair.

Whiting Farms, located in Colorado, raises the roosters whose saddle feathers are in such great demand by both groups of consumers. A particular variety of rooster feathers, known as “grizzly feathers” are also highly prized by both groups. Needless to say, fly fisherman are none too happy about the current situation. Even the owners of Whiting Farms are a little perplexed. In order to keep their long time, and core group of customers, the fly fisherman, happy, they set aside a supply of rooster feathers reserved just for them.

They also sell feathers to fly fisherman and fly makers at a lower price than what they sell them for to hair salons. After all, their reasoning goes, the hair feathers craze is surely just a fad that will soon pass and when the dust settles, they will need the fly fisherman to continue purchasing their wares. It should be quite interesting to observe if attaching rooster saddle feathers to one’s hair is merely a fad, or a long term fashion trend that’s here to stay for a while.
