a second base member comprising a second front edge, a second rear edge, a second side edge, a second top surface and a second bottom surface, wherein the second base member is coupled to the first base member;

a first artificial hair section comprising artificial hair, wherein the first artificial hair section is coupled to the first top surface of the first base member;

a second artificial hair section comprising artificial hair, wherein the second artificial hair section is coupled to the second top surface of the second base member;

a first fastener member coupled to the first side edge on the first bottom surface of the first base member; and

a second fastener member coupled to the first bottom surface of the first base member, wherein the second fastener member is a second comb comprising tines,

wherein the first fastener member is disposed opposite to the second base member,

wherein the first fastener member is a first comb comprising tines, and wherein the tines of the first comb face towards the second base member.

2. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the tines of the first comb are disposed perpendicular to the tines of the second comb.

3. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the first artificial hair section comprises individual strands of artificial hair coupled to a first filament section, and wherein the first filament section is coupled to the first base member.

4. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the first filament section is coupled to the top surface of the first base member in multiple rows.

5. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the first filament section is coupled to the first base member in one of a parallel, perpendicular and diagonal orientation with respect to the first front edge.

6. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the second artificial hair section comprises individual strands of artificial hair coupled to a second filament section, and wherein the second filament section is coupled to the second base member.

7. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the second filament section is coupled to the top surface of the second base member in multiple rows.

8. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 6 , wherein the second filament section is coupled to the second base member in one of a parallel, perpendicular and diagonal orientation with respect to the second front edge.

9. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the first filament section is coupled to the first base member with respect to the first front edge in an orientation different from an orientation in which the second filament section is coupled to the second base member with respect to the second front edge.

10. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the artificial hair of the first artificial hair section extends in a direction perpendicular to a direction in which the artificial hair of the second artificial hair section extends.

11. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first top surface comprises a greater surface area than the second top surface.

12. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first front edge is substantially perpendicular to the second front edge, and wherein the first rear edge is substantially perpendicular to the second rear edge.

13. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the artificial hair of the first artificial hair section extends at least partially beyond the first rear edge, and wherein the artificial hair of the second artificial hair section extends at least partially beyond the second rear edge.

14. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first base member is configured to wrap around a user's natural hair, with the first bottom surface of the first base member being in contact with the user's natural hair, and wherein the second base member, and the artificial hair extending therefrom, is configured to wrap around the first base member, with the second bottom surface of the second base member being in contact with the first artificial hair section.

15. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein a portion of the second top surface of the second base member is free of artificial hair.

16. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the first base member and the second base member are constructed of separate pieces of material.

17. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the second base member is constructed of an elastic material.

18. A hair extension apparatus, comprising:

a first base member comprising a first front edge, a first rear edge, a first side edge, a first top surface and a first bottom surface;

a second base member comprising a second front edge, a second rear edge, a second side edge, a second top surface and a second bottom surface, wherein the second base member is coupled to the first base member;

a first artificial hair section comprising artificial hair, wherein the first artificial hair section is coupled to the first top surface of the first base member;

a second artificial hair section comprising artificial hair, wherein the second artificial hair section is coupled to the second top surface of the second base member; and

a first fastener member coupled to the first side edge on the first bottom surface of the first base member,

wherein the first fastener member is disposed opposite to the second base member,

wherein the first fastener member is a first comb comprising tines, and wherein the tines of the first comb face towards the second base member, and

wherein the first base member is configured to wrap around a user's natural hair, with the first bottom surface of the first base member being in contact with the user's natural hair, and wherein the second base member, and the artificial hair extending therefrom, is configured to wrap around the first base member, with the second bottom surface of the second base member being in contact with the first artificial hair section.

19. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 18 , wherein the first artificial hair section comprises individual strands of artificial hair coupled to a first filament section, and wherein the first filament section is coupled to the first base member.

20. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 18 , wherein the first filament section is coupled to the top surface of the first base member in multiple rows.

21. The hair extension apparatus according to claim 20 , wherein the first filament section is coupled to the first base member in one of a parallel, perpendicular and diagonal orientation with respect to the first front edge.
