What is the ruling on women wearing hair extensions?

Praise be to Allah, and blessings and peace be upon the Messenger of Allah:
Women are forbidden to add extensions to their hair, whether they are made of hair or anything else, if they could be mistaken for hair, because of the reports that have been narrated concerning that.
