FAKE fake fake girls...

Recently I got hair extensions, and I absolutely love them, but it got me thinking about how superficial and fake a lot of girls are - personality-wise (two-faced) but mainly appearance-wise. I like my extensions though, because I can decide, on the day, whether or not I want to have SHORT or LONG hair without having to cut it and waiting for it to grow. Plus, it's funny to make the change and see myself with long hair that isn't damaged.
Natural beauty must be a dying thing.
I say this as I straighten my hair and put makeup on (and I'm about to put extensions in). That's about it for my "fake"-ness, though. I generally do these things because I like how I look when my hair is straight, and when I wear makeup. I'm not sure if I learned this from society or if it's just my own personal preference. I wouldn't really say I do it for male attention, though. Maybe just a smidge.
I know one particular girl who has hair extensions, fake eyelashes, ALWAYS is wearing about 15 pounds of makeup, has a fake tan, has fake naia pls, has her hair dyed, and so on. She admits to having a lot of 'flings' and doesn't really believe in dedicated/monogamous relationships. She says that when she is getting close with guys, she won't let them near her hair (she says she wouldn't want one of them inadvertently pulling a piece of the fake hair out 
).
It got me thinking - being "fake" in order for guys to like you is kind of crazy. Can you imagine having all of that 'fake' product on you?
And are guys REALLY attracted to a girl having FAKE everything it seems like?
Where do you think we get these ideas to be FAKE in every department?

I use hair extensions once in a while also and use makeup too but not loads of it. I do it to look good for myself and not to grad attention from others. I do it to make myself happy and it is not a lot of fake things either os I don't mind it. However, I have seen women who are literally fake from top to bottom. I don't think that all guys get attracted to a girl with everything fake. It is not just your appearance that matters, it is also your personality and attitude and that your natural beauty can be shown through that also in a way...

it is very funny but when all these fake products are on the girls then are looking awesome.i think it is not bad things to do makeup and dressed well and different so that guys attract towards them.but sometimes i think being simple or as you are all the times is very good.because physical appearance is not every thing in life.by some days it also goes down.

Hello maezee, Is this what the Cosmetic commercials, beauty products and other stuff that involves in the process of making the woman perfectly pretty. And to some women who can afford these items and even surgeries, i think it's not something new or peculiar anymore. there's still a lot of people who actually loves natural beauty but not most of the time. its sad that not every women wouldn't want to have men love natural beauty.

Woah! I wonder how long that girl can carry on like that, I'm pretty sure you can't carry on until you're like 40 or 50. Maybe if you're young and wild, but I truly hate the idea of being very fake. It's quite amazing what fake eye lashes and lots of make up can change a person physically so much! But it's like disguising yourself for a few hours before you have to get it off. I don't mind hair extensions and a little make up to cover the little scars and stuff but some people just overdo it. Beauty doesn't last, it is what is inside that counts and lasts.

I only wear different wigs over all as far as FAKE things. I don't like make-up. I hate heels. I am already a nice brown color, so getting a tan would be pointless =P and I can't stand fake nails. If I wear make-up ever... its very light and usually lipgloss or eyeshadow. I might wear make-up once a year. I hate padded push-up bras... BUT I do like corsets. I love corsets so that might fall under fake too, I am not sure.
Any girl that gets a guy only attracted to the fake stuff, in my opinion, needs to realize that guy isn't worth her time unless she can be herself and he will still care for her.
I couldn't have a lot of 'fake' product on me if I did want to (which I don't). Very sensitive skin and hypoallergenic stuff is expensive -_-.
I think women get the ideas from TV, models, etc. I mean those women diet constantly, work out super hard, get liposuction, plastic surgery, and so on for this 'perfect' female image and it influences people to want to look 'perfect' for whatever style fad is going on at the time. With magazines digitally enhancing photos it does even more to destroy a person's self-esteem.

I thought you might want a guy's feedback on the matter.
Keep in mind though, I'm kind of weird, so this may not apply to most guys out there.
Personally, I don't like girls being fake at all. Period.
You have beautiful and natural hair, why would you replace it with fake hair? I know it might be made from other people's hair, but that just makes it even worse!
What would you think if you were hugging someone and suddenly a piece of hair falls apart? Or perhaps because you tugged on it by accident?
About all that make-up... perhaps a little lipstick is nice, but that's as far as I go. You're hiding yourself under paint, because let's be honest here, call it whatever you want but it's still paint.
Now, I have to distance myself a bit from my point of view. You were saying girls do that to get guys to like them, if you are looking for just some fun for the night, it does make sense. I don't really approve of it but what others do doesn't really concern me.
I blame society, I blame TV, I blame magazines and I blame men.
I don't think much clarification is needed about that, you can probably all guess why I think that way.

You know you're with a fake when the best bits are still in the bathroom or on the bedside table ( or floor!
) when the lights go out at bedtime...

I wear the FAKE stuff to boost my confidence. Not much to wear anyway as I am not into wig, hair extension nor heavy make up. I only wear face cream, compact powder and lip gloss or lipstick occasionally. I can't stand staring at the mirror for too long as there's a lot to do in the morning. My accessories are just wrist watch and handbag.

I think society has instilled in girls/women that if you don't have it, you can buy it. There is a fine line between wearing those things for yourself, or wearing them to pretend that you are someone you aren't. I have long hair, but I LOVE my extensions. I don't wear them everyday, but I love having fuller appearing hair. I know that most GOOD guys don't like fake looking girls. My husband is a great guy, and I ask his opinion on lots of things, not because i need his approval but because I want to look good for him.
