Thanks Kristin.
I already ordered the razor from your site, so we will see. I will practice with some left over hair that I have.
And if I need to get more done then I will go to a salon.
 
Thanks!

Usually you can lightly run a razor over them yourself for a little fine tuning but if you need a more drastic cut I would recommend going to a salon. I  recommend going to a salon where they install extensions so you know that they are familiar with them. I would also make sure they know how to razor because this is best way I have found to layer them.
 
Malibu- I need a man like that!

make sure you go to a salon that is experienced in cutting hair extensions. Yes you def. cut hair extensions different than regular hair.
 
I just do some very basic razoring on my top layers of extensions to make them blend. And around my face. I use a feather razor, and some people prefer to point cut with scissors.
 
If you do a search on layering, razoring, blending or point cutting you may come up with some of the past posts. There is alot of info here on this topic, its just a matter of finding it!

Hey Everyone!

I am going to do my own install in about a week; I know every thing I need to know except on how to cut the hair! . The last time I had hair extensions I installed them and then went to a salon but they just cut it weird. I love long layers, but I know that you can’t cut the extensions the same way you cut your own hair. Can someone PLEASE explain to me how to do it with the razor?
