I just tried these tape-in extensions and I'm so happy and impressed with them! I'm too bald to wear my hair down and the regrowing "feathers" on the crown of my head stick up through my hair when I wear a ponytail. The tape attaches to either side of a tuft of "feathers" and I angled them so they go in the direction of my hair when it's in a ponytail. Now I have a decent looking ponytail. It's an amazing relief. Maybe consider these extensions. I'd recommend trying them out before the day of the event. They're reasonably priced for human hair.
