Birds of a feather flock together

It has been a very trendy summer so far and while I have spotted them, I'll admit, I haven't been great about writing about them. But no worries because I am catching up. So in case you were trendless for a week or so without my posts, here's one you're bound to latch onto - or perhaps one that will latch onto you.

Women and men alike are attaching rooster feather hair extensions - the same ones used for fly fishing - to be a part of the latest trend. The sleek feathers range in pattern, color and length and have to be attached in a salon. 

Over the past few weeks I have heard of high-fashion icons going individually to chic salons to make their hair a little more flashy and gaggles of 12-year-old girls who troop to a salon together for a birthday party to get the trendy addition for their locks. 

While trends like Ugg boots even planking can only be seen in certain age groups, there are not too many trends that sixth graders and Steven Tyler of Aerosmith can all participate in.


But before you go chasing down a rooster, know that these hair additions are affordable (but they do seem to range in cost). So flock together trend-setters.

I read somewhere that these feathers are actually extremely painful to the roosters and most of them don't survive after being plucked. Oy vey the things we do for fashion!
