Yeah, tangles, maybe i need to hold it longer, also.

Dune, I do have LG on the tips I made, but are also talking about the pre-tipps I buy? I didn't even think about that. Hmmm......

For my first install I lost a lot, and then I put in about 40 as a test a couple weeks ago with a coat of LG over the top of my tips and they held great. No slipping and I've only lost one so far.

I forget who said they used LG over top of their pre-tips as a bit of extra hold, I think it may have been Amm, but whoever it was I thank you, because thats what works for me too.

They're from Amm, so I'm pretty sure they have the glue on the inside. I wish there was just a bit more glue, I guess!!!

I had a lot of shrinkies fall out too.  A lot could have contributed to my loss, though ....   I played w/the shrinkies a lot and I know this distorted them.   Keep conditioner and oily sprays away from shrinkies!

I've had a few problems with shrinkies falling out. Does anyone have any suggestions? I know using too little of a tip could cause a problem, and using too little of their own hair, also. Any other thoughts? Thanks!
