I really wish I would have found this board sooner!  I just got my extensions on Saturday.  The installer used what she said is eurolocks but she used hair glue to install them.  There were no metal rings.  She claimed that this method isnt as damaging as the great lengths because the bond is easier to disolve.  When she put the hair in it looked good... the hair was in good condition.  I have had them 3 days and I can not get it smooth.  I have been using goldwell shampoo and conditioner and chi smoothing oil.  The hair is real clumpy too.  It seems to section off easily.  It feels really coarse and dry.  Should I change my products?  My mom has her hair done by the same lady and her hair looks good. 

Also how damaging is this installation method.  I got the extensions for my upcoming wedding (in April).  I don't plan on wearing them after that. 

Now I am starting to regret my decision.  I called the installer today the soonest she can see me is saturday. 

 

Opinions?  Suggestions?

Sounds like she didn't use the best quality hair if it feels dry only after a few days.

Do you mean the hair is stringy looking?  I find that happens when the extensionist doesn't install enough hair.

Some people love fusion and some people hate it.  If the extensionist installed it properly ( clean sections, not too much weight per extension) and she uses extreme care to remove them, than you should be ok, most likely.

eurolocs is the same as hairlocs, there is NO glue-

ask her what it is she did and why, as metal said, you may be fine- i would just question why she changed her method on u
