Thanks Gina - after I posted that info I got the "wholesale" prices and I was like, oh woo-hoo. By the time you get it shipped from one place to another there goes your "discount". Oh well. But yes, isn't that strange about the ring??
Just to let you all know...don't get too excited. The price break is not that substancial.(I know it's better than nothing...but I guess I was hoping for more)This is for natural micro weft:
Length
All Colors Excluding blondes and frosted
Colors: 22,24,613,618, frosted (2 tone)
14"
$43
$51.50
18"
$76.00
$90.00
22"
$110.50
$130.00
14"-$39,18"-$69,22"-$100.50
Hope that gives you a little insight. I haven't yet ordered form them to know if you get a better deal on a larger order. I do plan on using their hair very soon.
I findit very intersting they will sell the general public the hair ut not the ring? It just doesn't make sense.

Did you know that Extensions-Plus offers WHOLESALE pricing to licensed hairdressers? AND that they don't want to sell you a color ring without such license?
I called today to order the color ring and she asked if I would fax over my license. I hemmed, hawed, and made up all kinds of stories and she's sending it anyway. However be prepared. They will ask you for your license (or maybe I just got lucky?) if you want a ring. However they will sell hair to anyone.
She said, "Well be sure to fax over your license so you can get the hair at the wholesale prices."
Hmmmm. . . any of you licensed gals out there interested in helping out here??
cuti weave 22 is the hair I purchased online. And I don't know if I want to put it in myself. I would like hair that will stay in and I don't have to worry about. I would really like to find someone honest and with good hair quality at a reasonable cost. I don't know how to go about this in Dallas.
thank you all for your help and info. if you have any more please let me know since I am desputing this w/the credit card company as misleading bad services. I need everything I can get. I know I'm right and not crazy not that makes this just more difficult to handle. I even purchased some hair on internet and colored it even before I put it in to see if I could do my own hair and had no trouble w/it; it was beautiful; just not as thick or staying in since I'm not a professional. And the cost on it was $100 for 6 bundles of very long hair.
Can anyone tell me the best hair to get put in? I like it wavy and mid back w/a style/cut.

I just had my hand made weft from EP sewn in last Friday. I sent them a
swatch of my hair and they matched it. I ordered it l8 inches, 50% thicker
than standard, european hair with a slight wave (one step up from stick
straight). It cost $323. It is beautiful. It has not tangled once, nor shed.
I am in heaven. I only have one thick weft sewn in. It is a tad longer than
my own hair. It dries beautifully, and I try to let it dry by itself, but
haven't had it in very long yet, and am still experimenting with styling. I
have been using a diffuser after it dries mostly by itself, and it waves up
very naturally. Tried some mouse on it the other day, it worked well but
got kindof crunchy. I have some bumble and bumble styling/finishing
spray that is very light and brushable I've been using. It's so awesome,
it's not like other hair I've had. IT DOESN'T TANGLE you don't have to
brush it all day to avoid matting. It is low maintenance. I'm trying to just
leave it alone and not mess with it too much to make it last, plus it's just
so pretty on its own. I have to style my own hair much more than my
extension hair. the hand wefts DO NOT SHED. No hair on the floor. The
l8 inches was way generous in length. I didn't need to order that long,
and ended up cutting quite a bit. The ends on what I ordered looked
pretty good, really. I talked to a lady named Cheyne. She was kindof
hard to get on the phone, but reallly really knew her stuff. That's the
scoop. i'll defnately use them again. I might would consider next time
one step curlier/wavier, also, highlights or a mixture of some lighter
within the weft would have been nice. I just highlight slightly my own
hair all around it and it's fine. Love it, love it, love it.

I seriously doubt this is Extensions-Plus hair, as it's one of the few
brands that has received excellent reviews here. It sounds like some
crappy BSS hair, and you have my sympathies because it's clear your
stylist is simply outright lying about the quality and price.
I doubt you can complain to anyone but the actual stylist about this, since she didn't say it was GLs hair.
Your stylist is certainly not being too helpful to you, is she (or he)?
I don't know if 'extend plus' is the same as Extensions Plus, but I can tell you that I have put Extensions Plus hair on over 100 clients and only 1 had tangle/ matting issues.
I use the Mark Barrington Shrink Link method, and actually he buys the Extension Plus hair, makes them into perma plugs and then resells it to me to use with his shrink link system. So in the case of the client who got the bad batch of hair, I reported it right away to Mark, and he replaced it (6 ounces of 20" blond- not cheap) right away, no questions asked. I then removed the crappy extension hair from the client and reapplied the new hair, at no additional cost to my client.
Your stylist should be more willing to help you and especially for $1800! I guess I just live in the wrong place or something, because after the client purchases the hair (at cost- no mark up) I am only charging $300-$500 for the application! Damn, how do so many stylists get away with over charging their clients, doing a sh*tty job, not guaranteeing their work, and still remain in business?!
I color extensions with demi color all the time, and it shouldn't be a problem. I wouldn't try to lift the color though, too tricky and risky.
Good luck, and keep bugging your extensionist, she needs to stand behind her work!
What hair should I ask for?? I will color my hair w/a no deposit demi-semi perm. color and some warn not to do this and braid your hair, conditioner before/after; tangling problems. I just don't want to deal w/any of this and it to be pretty and not pull on my hair. I expect it to only last about 3-4 months but w/out these issues.
is this hair extend plus as she called it the extensions plus hair?
Who can I report her to? She's not w/great lengths; she just said it was the same quality hair. Which obviously is not the same at all. The great lengths hair was great, I had no problems w/it. It was a little more difficult to take out since the tips are hard and stay so well but otherwise I had no problems and no concerns. Just thick beautiful healthy hair and I used to be blond. I'm very scared to use any other brand after this experience.

Oh thats horrible.She could get into alot of trouble.I've heard GL has strict policy on using hair other than what they are supposed too.If she doesnt give you your money back you should report her.I cant believe she charged $1,800.Thats ridiculous.Sounds like she used regular Beauty supply store hair.Which I have had better results with than what your talking about.She probably only spent $100 on hair. It doesnt make any sense.GL was the first extensions I checked into or even knew of in my area.The girl who offered them actually seemed very honest.Except sadly misinformed about length of wear.She had let clients wear there hair foreight months and who knows how long.Anywhooo....She only wanted to charge me $800 for everything.Thats $400 for haIR,AND $400 for application.I'm just curious is this closer to the actual amount the hair costs.I know you can buy good cuticle hair(hisandhers) for $500.How much extra are they charging people.
I have had great lengths extensions for over 2 1/2 years and recently changed to someone else that uses another hair company she said was the same hair as g.l. But I am having extreme rats nest, parched, poofy, tangled hair that looks like doll hair for the same cost. She finally told me it was Extend Plus hair and that I need to pay for the hair since she admitted it was overprocessed. I did color it with a deposit color only the day of the extension application since she told me to do so and that it was ok to do that day. It is starting to pull out my own hair and acting like a poofy sponge in the shower. This hair has only been trouble getting worse and its been a month. I've tried all the conditioners, detanglers, before/after shampoo. I can only put it in a braid. She gave me no take home info since I did the great lengths but obviously this is not the same since I had no problems at all w/that hair even swimming, sleeping.
Can someone tell me if this is the extensions-plus company and if they have had these problems. please!!!
She told me to color it and if I'm not happy and scared to get in the shower I think I need a refund for her misrepresenting the hair and for her not willing to see me and/or not willing to replace at her cost the damaged hair (she admitted it was). I'm soo desprite for help after spending $1,800.
