I am trying to remove a few So Cal keratin based hair extensions, i tried acetone as suggested and it did not soften the bond at all any suggestions on what to use? I have about 20 I need out before I can add some new hair. A link to a website to order would be appreciated.

Hmm...I've used oils to loosen them up before and it's worked well, but I'm not very experienced with fusion. Maybe Sherrie or Kristin can recommend something. :)

Joginny, after you put the acetone on you need to crush the bond with pliers, did you try that? Generally keratin doesnt get soft & gooey so to speak. It still will feel hard after you put the acetone on, but should crumble when you crunch it. Sometimes you have to do it a couple of times to break up the bigger bits!
