New Pinchbraid install with Bohyme

they all work for me imzadi92

Yup, I looked at your old pics. . .thanks for re-posting though!!  I'm *REALLY EXCITED* to do a human hair install with PB's. She raved about that 50% Mink hair so I'm just gonna go w/her recommendation. . .will keep you posted!! THANKS AGAIN and congrats again -- Fina

WHAT AN AWESOME JOB - you sure gave her some work to do with that short short hair!!  I can't BELIEVE what a blending job she did and the cut is gorgeous!!  This is quite a different look from your last install if I recall correctly! (I'm gonna look through your previous posts)

Your raving about Heather has convinced me. . . I've been DIY'ing with fusion since about July and am splurging and going to Heather in Atlanta in 2 weeks!!  She says she loves working with the His & Hers 50% Italian Mink (or something like that) so I'm going to use that. I need something with a little body and she says she prefers that to Bohyme. . .

aww thanks sherrie - hmmm. resizing the large head isn't really working right now lol.

for me i can see how pb's can be bulky or detectable if you don't do them super small the way heather does, particularly higher up; i think that also helps with keeping the hair from looking piecey.

i just had a pinchbraid install done with bohyme silky straight done by Heather in Atlanta at Black Cherry Salon. I found Heather through the hairpolice website and this is my third install with her - the first two were synthetic (plastikhaar). i chopped off a bunch of my hair about a month ago, so heaven help her she had little to work with:

before (sorry pics are so dark):  

after:

shann had asked earlier some questions about braid size, etc. because my hair was woefully short heather went pretty high with tiny little braids:

as this is the first time with human hair i can't really talk about slippage with the bohyme; what i can say is i did not lose 1 single braid with the synthetic on my previous 2 installs. i know a couple people had major slippage with synth and i really am not sure if it's a hair texture issue or a matter of the installer or something else. for me they work really well. typically in about 4 weeks the higher braids are harder to conceal - this time i'm likely going in for a tightening for these higher rows, then i'll just get everything tightened at 8 weeks (my hair grows really fast). these pinchbraids were done hairpolice style with string.

it took about 6 hours with blending the hair, doing the install, and some razoring. heather offered me breaks but took none herself..she's a little amazing worker bee. i really ordered colors randomly from the hairsisters site without a color ring....22" in three colors: 8, 14/24, and 10/16. heather hand blended these to match my own high and lowlights.  i have roughly a quarter and a smidge of two of the wefts left out of 3 packs.

**sorry about pic size - trying to resize them ;)
