Hi there, Im new to this forum but am really glad to have found it!!

Had a bad experience with Balmain hair extensions about a month ago (they are very very poor quality) which almost put me off extensions all together-but i really want the extra few inches so im going to give extensions another go :)

What i am wondering is which extensions would be best for what i intend to do with them. I have naturally mid-light brown hair which i intend to get foiled 4 different shades of blonde (going for a jessica simpson look-straight hair). My hairdresser is going to dye my hair a lighter brown (its too dark to go brown to blonde), then a week later shes going to put the foils in (to avoid overprocessing my hair).

I would like to get extensions before i colour my hair blonde (i think it would be too much of a hassle to try and match all four blonde colours) so my plan was to buy hair that matches my natural colour and dye the extensions along with my natural hair. If i buy top quality hair, do you think it would survive being processed twice?

Also, which hair would be best?? Is it possible to get russian hair that has not been coloured in any way? oh and if anyone can offer me advice as to which kind of bond i should use (on single strands) it would be much appreciated :)

Hi there, Im based in the UK and always buy russian hair in bulk normally 1 or 2 kilos at a time would you be able to supply me hair in this quantity at a good price? I deal with a company in russia but have trouble ordering the longer lengths and the service just isnt consistant for my needs i normally hold in stock 14" and 18" if its not possible for you to supply the large amounts could you recommend a company that does? Any help would be greatly appreciated and your russian hair looks gorgeous, many thanks x

Hello,

Yes you can get them, and if they are from the central region of russia the hair is like silk, as you go north I am told it is not nearly as desirable.  I have the guys name and contact info, but it is in my storage unit as I am trying to sell my house. But I spent about an hour on the phone with this guy and it is killing me that I can not remember the name of the company...  I will get it for you, but this guy had to be the most passionate person about hair I have ever met and some of the stuff he is working on will completely transform the hair manufacturing business for the better.  And he was the type that you talk to on the phone and was just so, intelligent, witty, polite and charismatic you wanted to crawl through the phone to meet him.  Do not take that the wrong way, the guy totally knew what he was talking about, was confident about his products, offers a 100% money back garantee.  They have created a special glue that all of their hair is tipped with, and after you take it down you can send it back to them and they will condition it and retip the hair for a small fee,  what company does that??  I promised not to divulge how they are able to remove color without causing any damage to the hair... so I can't tell you how they do it, but I can tell you that if you never touch this stuff your totally missing out.  I am not selling anything, I can not even remember the name of the company.  Obviously I was impressed, my memory is just not the greatest.  But I do know where the info is, and will get it within the next 10 days.  This was the company I wanted to do a group order from.

Hi, thanks for all the info, as soon as you find the website name please let me know. The American site I was ordering from has dissappeared off the UK Internet.
