Hi guys, This is my fiance's friends sister who i done today.  I used bohyme 22" in colour 8 and 613.  Her hair was extremely fine and not very strong so i had to be really careful the way i was applying these.  She paid for the hair only and i done it for free! shes lovely though.  Yep i have a large trail of friends who follow for their beloved free instal. Gees im going to have to start charging soon at least alittle.  Is anyone else in this situation?  It all starts off with you doing it for one friend then so on?

before pic (top) and after (below) Nearly forgot top take the before picture as you can see.

 

comments?

xx

thanks guys.  The picture quality of the second pic isnt great and seems alittle blurry but i was so jealous that i ended up putting some extensions in myself today (pics are on other thread)

 

Candilocks - A full head takes me anything between 2 and a half - 4 hours depending on how thick / layered someone's hair is. Actually when i counted my money just now, i see she has given me £50 extra so i'll need to thank her.

It looks great shel. It seems extremely long for 22 inch. Maybe I just have an extremely long torso. But 22 inch wouldnt be nearly that length on me!

Alexia Bohyme is a brand of hair. It gets consistantly good reviews and is quite reasonably priced.

Thanks guys! yeah its fusion and i used about 4 oz of hair between 2 colours.  I think the 22" looks long on her as she is qut=uite short or maybe it was just a generous 22" as the after pic was after we trimmed the ends.

That's really good Shel, love the colours.  I'm surprised and think you were very lucky getting away with using just 4oz, I always end up using 8oz when its a 22inch install xxxxx I too am finding it difficult to fit in clients as well as friends that want refit.  I've had to rearrange one friend four times due to fitting paying clients in and she has actually fallen out with me over it, can you believe the cheek when she gets installs for free!!! xx She even said can't you tell the client that you'd booked someone in, urrrr yeah I'll lose a paying client so that I can do her hair for free.  Yes I've let her down four times but that's not the point is it, I'm trying to run a business xxx

It only took you 2.5-4 hours?  That's great time!   How many rows did you install, and about how many strands per row?  Also, did you use U shape parting (starting at the front on one side, swooping down into the back, and coming up to the front on the other side), or did you do straight rows across the back, and on the sides from front to back?

thats gorgeous, the colours are fab, i've used the bohyme a few times and find it great to work with & it always seems to wear nice. I've drawn the line now with doing freebies, I trade favours instead now, i'm owed nail extensions and a hair cut at the moment, it's good to have friends and family with a beauty trade. good stuff , do you have any more pics, i love to see other's work.
