I appreciate your response.

Aphrodite & all others,

May I please ask that you take any further questions you have for Mark offline?  He has a Bmail account like everyone here.

I have been bombarded with complaints about this topic and I have attempted to stop it 3x now.  I please ask that you honor this moratorium and ask any further questions or make other comments privately.

I understand that Mark and others all have their own points of view but they have been discussed and posted.  Please move any further comments offline.

I am going to close yet another thread because of this ongoing determination to keep this topic open which is causing lots of problems.

Thank you very much for your help in this matter.
Karen

 I got some samples with the hair, a blonde, black and brown out of all of them black felt the worst, the blonde colour was a bit flat not so many tones as the brown.  The brown I ordered came up very light I seem to have trouble in getting a natural light brown without very red or blonde tones in it.

yeah, mark, geez...

enough already. we get your point - please stop, it only makes you look histrionic. i stayed away from the drama too so stop flooding the other threads.

p.s. you seem to be very well respected as an extensionist with tons of experience, there are loads of other questions on here in regards to that or hair quality, etc. it would be great and awesome if you wanted to contribute in that capacity.

When it comes to product pictures you should take your own or use the ones from your distributer otherwise you are misrepresenting your products. They are the ones who look dumb for doing it

 

 



Let's not jump to conclusions now. Maybe they just happened to position their shinkies the exact way you positioned yours. Ya neva know!
Just kidding, I'm in a very silly mood today.

I have ordered some hair 26" in medium brown, it arrived this morning I can't see any root bulbs on the ends usually a give away to upside down hair,there are some shorter hairs in it. I have washed it prior to install it seems ok,I have ordered another weft though as I don't think it will be enough for a full install. I will report on condition when I install it, as thats the only way you can really tell how its going to stand up to wear and tear!

I found this website a couple of days ago and contacted them via phone they said that the wefts are 42" in width, she is sending me out some samples of the hair which I will report back on what its like.  She assured me that the hair can be delivered next day for a charge of �3.75 orders must be in before 3pm previous day.  She stocks 24 inch and 26 inch hair in all the time.  The other longer lengths she orders and it takes two weeks for the delivery time to her.

Not sure if this is a new company or not as a child answered when I rang but the lady who spoke to me was pleasant on the phone and very informative.

Look forward to receiving the samples
