Did you get the tape or tips put in? How much did it cost if you don’t mind me asking?
My hair was in crap condition prior to getting bonded extensions. It was thin, wispy and the back of my head was so sparse you could see my scalp in places.
I had been wearing clip ins for about 8/9 years at that point, for increased length and volume and taking the clips in and out (as well as having to backcomb my hair so that the clips could grip on) absolutely destroyed my hair.
In order to achieve any volume at all, I had to use a fuck tonne of products and hot tools on my hair to make it look any way decent.
I also used to have to wash it a lot because it would go limp after a day or two cause there was so much product in it.
I got bonded extensions on the recommendation of my hairdresser and the difference in my hair has been incredible.
I now wash it twice a week max, blow dry it properly and it looks effortlessly good. No need to spend half an hour trying to tame it, it looks voluminous and thick and healthy on its own.
It has come on so much over the last 6 years since I started getting them that I now only get one pack of fillers at the very front of my hair, versus the 6/7 packs I needed to achieve that same look a few years ago.
That said I have an excellent talented hairdresser and I always use good brands of hair. I’ve used Gold Fever, Platinum and EasiLocks in the past and could recommend all of them.
So I don’t think it’s fair to say that extensions ruin your hair when that isn’t the case, it’s what saved mine. If you use a good product with a good hairdresser and you take good care of them, you won’t have any issues.

Tapes lay flatter but micro rings are very small and hide well in the hair too. Tapes are alot quicker to fit which seems to suit my clients better alot of the time (half an hour) however it's just down to personal preference. Wouldn't recommend the fusion bonds personally I'm not a fan.
