Ok, I think (At least for right now) I am going to go with either of these two. Amm, I read someplace that you liked the Glamour hair but I think you used the silky straight. Do you know anything about the wave one? http://www.glamourhair.com/extensions/bodywavehand.asp

I think I also read that anything with a wave gets tangled faster than the straight? Yes? no???

Then there is the Bohyme http://www.bohyme.com/category2.asp?maincatid=1

What I am looking at is the bodywave type. Where do you buy the Bohyme? Any good sites?

Is anyone out there as addicted as I am right now? I am getting to the point where I have to check this board waaaaaaay tooooo often now to see if someone post! I need help


BTW I will be purchasing hand tied wefts for sewing on a braided track. I would like their best cuticle hair.


I originally came to this board with a ? about the Raw/Virgin hair but what I have read about the horror stories a lot of you have had about being ripped off I am really scared to spend $600.00 to $1,000 on hair I am not sure about (a no brainer there). I emailed the Hawaiian site for references a week ago and she said she would ask her clients if they would be willing and so far nothing. No references - no money from me!

Thanks again guys for your very useful advice on everything


So what is your vote - Glamour or Bohyme?

I'll leave it to the others to cast their votes, since I don't generally use wavy hair, but I think you've narrowed down your options well. I also think it's real smart not to buy "virgin" hair from online sellers; it's too big of a risk, and I don't know anyone who's really been able to find what they were looking for. I've supposedly bought "European" several times, and thousands of dollars later, I'm convinced it was all from Asia.

Good luck, and don't worry: You're not alone--we're all such hair junkies that we should start a spin-off 12-step site.

I have tried the 22-24" French Refined from Glamour Hair and it was not worth the money. My friend bought a weft and hers was even worse than mine. When I contacted GH, she tried to blame me for the texture of the hair. Then she wanted to blame the shampoo I was using. Then she wanted to blame the conditioner. Needless to say, that went over like a turd in the punchbowl with me. I fully expected her to blame the hair's texture on the color of my eyes.

I do still have that hair and I wear it as lowlights (only because it cost so damn much.) I get compliments on it constantly because the color is a beautiful brown with copper highlights and gold/red strands and it's very shiny. People don't know the hell I go through to maintain it, though.

I have tried one weft of Glamour Hair's Silky Straight in the 22-24" length and it is excellent. It's really some of the best hair I ever got. Kristin has a few strands of it that I pretipped and sent her and I think she'd back me up on the fact that it's very smooth and soft and silky. I am going on 5 months of wear with it and it's still good with no tangling. If you're interested in GH, I'll snapshot my color ring and show you what the colors really look like.

I have never tried their bodywave. I won't either. I haven't found a bodywave yet that satisfied me. I will try bohyme if I ever do feel like getting human hair in a wave. Which I don't right now. My next purchase will be synth.

My vote would be GH for silky straight but the bohyme based on other's reviews for everything else.
