Hey girls,
I just got my Dome order, and the hair looks and feels gorgeous. The order arrived very quickly (which is good, considering how much the shipping cost me). Yippie!
I'm glad you asked. I was under the impression that it would be 24", but I just measured it, and it's more like 29". I think Dome only offers one length (there was no option for length on the website, anyway).
Along these lines, ProStyles told me their hair is 30" (although I heard they have longer 47" lengths, but the quality of their longer lengths isnt quite as good). And PlastikHaar (Sara) has up to 48".
Jenny I am going crazy - there is just tooo much hair here. Now, is Dome better than the PlastikHair (sp?) If I order the Plastikhair it will run me about $75.00 because you can only order a min. of 5 meters now.

Kimbearly , its says on the website its $14.40 for a weft.. Im not sure, will have to look again at the other post. Im not sure if it said a weft is 1 meter and minimum purchase is 5 meters. If so it would make it around $72. Thats still WAAAYYY cheaper than a decent human hair weft. If you buy the bulk its only $13 a bag.
Apparently Dome, Prostyles, Trimco are all top of the line. And PlastikHaar rates right up there just behind those according to some, and right up there with them according to others. Either way we do know that PH is far above the cheaper sythnthetic fibers
Unfortunately, no. I have camera issues (due to my boyfriend losing the battery LOL), but what I received today was the Dome (I haven't gotten my PlastikHaar yet). Anyway, the Dome Classic looks similar to the 50mm PlastikHaar photos AMM posted, maybe a bit tighter of a wave (like the 28mm). I got the Light Blonde, which is basically like a 613 blonde, although I think I might need it a little lighter (so I bought a bag of white to mix in--which should be an adventure with bulk hair).
The texture and the colors are gorgeous and it feels lighter than human, although the strands look a bit thicker (which I like). My only concern is that it's a bit shiny. I might have to give myself a cellophane treatment to match it, 'cause my real hair is rather dull. I wonder if the sheen subsides a bit over time. Any opinions? :)
On the prostyles hair I do know that the shiny-ness will subside. Ive heard the same with plastikhaar that after a few washings the shiney-ness goes away.
OK, I'm going to wash it a few times and see then. How many bags of ProStyles would it take you to do a full head, Sherrie? I have three bags of Dome here, which is actually a lot of hair, but they pack it up so tight, it's hard for me to tell....:)
Well I only have funky colors of Prostyles so I really dont know what the comparison to natural colors really is like. But its shiney, not extremely shiney. But it looks fake to me, I think because its bright blue, neon green, neon orange, red, purple...etc! Everytime my daughter had had any of this in her hair people ask her if its real. They want to know if she dyed those streaks or if those streaks are fake. SO they obviously look like real hair. After the first wash or two they arent shiney anymore!
Im all for the IM thing LOL. I really dont know how many bags it would take. I have never fully opened one up I keep it bundled all up and only unwind it and snip out small strands for streaks. But today I brushed one out that I was working with so I could wind it back up neatly and it is ALOT of hair!
I have about 6 or 7 colors of prostyles and have done tons of streaks over the past few years and havent even come close to using up 1/10 of my supplies. Itll probably last another 5 years! Guess what ...I ordered 6 bags of plastikhaar. I guess I wont run out for awhile! And spent less than $100. Now thats amazing!
Jenny, Bridget Boogiemama told me I would need 2 bags of Dome for my hair. I bought the same colors you did but I also bought a dark blonde for lowlights.
