Hi all, I was a member here before but under another name and a different e-mail. That one got disabled so I started this one.
ANYWAY, I have had extensions twice before the 1st time I had them glued in, my hair was too short, however the girl assured me that it would work, she did them out of her own little salon in her basement. Needless to say it ended horribly.
 
Then I got them sewn in, and the were great for the 1st day, then I washed them and they felt horrible. They were real hair but obviously not remi. and whatever was in them made my face and neck itch like mad so I had to take them out.
 
and I am putting them in again, however this time I am going to DIY. I ordered the D-LUX stick hair I-tip 80 pack in M4/30 and in M4/33. I got the small threading tool and medium microrings (there were no smalls). I ordered from yourhairshop.
Now what I want to do is put them in the sides so that when I get them cut/blended I can ahve an A-Line http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Immortal2111/june051.jpg  or http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v231/Immortal2111/again003.jpg
 
Now I was hoping to get some input on how well you think this will work and any suggestions on where to place the hair, how far back and such. Thank you!!!

I had my hair like that about a year and a half ago.  I used about two rows of extensions from just above the ear to the temple.  It only took about 12 strands on each side to get enough fullness for a nice a-line bob.  It should be easy to do. 
Hair type: 1a/f/i

I love the hair in the 2nd picture...great cut and color.  Too bad it wasn't good hair.

It wont take much hair to create that look. You will have plenty of hair left over! I agree with monsterita's placement suggestion.

I will be taking before and after and then after the cut as well as some during! They shipped today so I hope they come soon!
 
Do any of you guys have some pictures of A-line styles with extensions in? If not thats ok too but I would love to see some!!
 
The lines should still be done straight across correct? For some reason I keep picturing the hair being installed in a slanted line, if that makes sense. Don't ask me why, it's the haircut not the install that makes it an A-line!! lol
