Yesterday I saw this report on french T.V regarding the craze of hair extensions.To my suprise almost all the hair extensions used world over orginally come from South Indian temples.I knew before that in Southern temples people sacrifice their hair to god , when their prayer is fulfilled etc.But what was scandalising was that the priests make money out of this and richer themselves.They showed this priest loaded with gold: "they r supposed to be men of god, serving god".

I would not oppose this sale if the returns were used for charitable purpose ex)building hospital or schools.But knowing priests and their mentality and penchant for money removed any illusions I had .The priest with a fat gold chain , rings on every finger and his whole sly , repulsive attitude confirmed my fear.He is giving very little back to the temple.

These extensions cost 10euro for each bunch of hair.Women put almost 1500 bunch.So you can do the calculation.Well it does include the chemical treatment , decolorisation , recolorisation in Italy.Indians are used again to go through each strand of hair once hair is colorised in blond to remove any black strand, can u imagine inspecting each strand of hair infinite times till there is no blackhair in the bunch.Their wages are not per hour but per piece.Scandalous!!!
