Yeah with an undercut (how high is it?) I would guess 4 would be a closer bet.

How many colors are you using?

when I did shrinkies I used 4.5 bags of hair and it was UBER thick, next install will be at least a  bag less and it will still be thick, and with your undercut you should be at about 3, but it also depends on how big your head is and how thick your hair is, how thick you want it to be, etc.  My best guess would be 3 bags, but I would order 4.  I always order a little more then I think i'll use, cause I end up f'n something up and need the extra

but everyones diffrent.  thick to me may be normal to someone else.  *shrug*  but either way, order at least a bag more then you think you'll need.

Doing full length with them just folded over in the center I used 4.5

If I were doing it over I'd probably do smaller sections on my head and slightly less hair per braid.  I had ~130.

I'd say 5
