Great! I'm getting together with a friend and we'll do each others' hair, woohoo!!
I think I'll try silicone lined rings this time, not sure though... .
The weather is up and down here and I don't mind. Israel was so hot I had to take my extensions off, so I welcome the rain and colder days...for now, hihi!

Well, I am still wearing fusion hair, so I still have some strand hanging w/ the devilish Mezzo Glue, and other strands w/ a gentle keratin glue -a bit too gentle for me- from Jet Set Extensions.
So It's a mix, but everyweek I spend 10-15 mn on a few ols strands w/ Mezzo glue to take them out. It's a lot of patience I can tell you!!
Yeah, I figured that out only last week, that the hair they had sent me months ago was not the good length!
It's ok, now I am going to work w/ Ebonyline.com.
I have found the reference of this website on this forum, thanks to Sherrie, and so far the customer service is wonderful to me, and they have reduction for returning customers!
Frenchie!
I can't wait to put some hair on my friends back in Belgium... show the salons we don't all have two left hands ...
I'd be quite upset to get shorter hair than ordered... .
Did you manage to get all that glue residue out of your hair? I'm sure that feels much better!

I got the same feeling in France, being a DIYer in hair extensions is seen as an amazing thing there!! When I used to tell people I had extensions they'd be like "really?!!noooo?...", and then I had a bigger reaction when saying I was doing it myself.
I guess France is just like Belgium, stuck on GL or salons. When I started I just couldn't afford them so the question of "Salon, not salon?" didn't even cross my mind.
I am glad I have found this forum, you guys make me feel right at my place, if it makes sense!!
I AM quite impatient regarding hair, but w/ glamourhair, I want to be polite and nice w/ the customer service, because I am just afraid that they would take my money and let me down.
I found out just last week that the last hair I had from them -very very nice though I have to say- was 18' instead of 22' that I ordered, another little disapointment, oh well!!
Wow! Waiting a month for hair to arrive! That would truly p**s me off. I'm way too impatient for that . Lucky for me I didn't have to wait long at all for the hair I ordered last time and i live in Israel for now (tomorrow going back to Belgium). It seems I HAVE to keep ordering from the States. Belgium is all stuck on GL or the other big names and as a dyi-er you're lost!
But, again, if the client service stays the way it is, I'm happy to keep ordering from the last company I got it from. It's Indian hair, European is just too expensive for me (and no guarantee for quality as we now know) though I'd loooove to try it, but only if I can personally cut it off a Russian ladies' head!

I've ordered from SKM hair many times. But, this will be my last.
I think Mr. Kumar only sells Indian hair, not sure about Asian. I wrote him and told him I would post a bad review on this site if he didn't contact me regarding my order. Then I told him I would contact the wire transfer dept. at my bank. I don't think it would have helped, but I had to try anything I could to get his ass in gear. 3 weeks is too long to wait for the hair to be shipped. All he has to do is put the hair in a bag and give it to his UPS driver. I won't use him again. PM me I will give you the name of a Indian company I trust.
I bought my first hair from remyhairtoday.com. I must say their customer service is great! And they accept paypal.
I got a sample from them... which I haven't done any thing w/ yet, quite some time ago.
Are you DIY full head install - what method ?
What kind do you order ( ", texture, qty, color ) ?
Be sure to keep me updated - I was thinking of placing an order a while back-before I purchased the wagman.... right now I am just trying to make my LB of wagman last - hopefully/doubtfully thru the end of the year

HI Mokipono you mentioned skm hair? I have been contacted by Mr Kumar from that company through the trade pages, i was thinking of placing a trial order with him as i have not used his hair before, in fact i dont usually use asian hair but if its cuticle correct and good quality im willing to give it a go!! can you recommend this company then? is there anything to look out for? Is This you first order from them? let me know whats its like and any advise would be helpfull ta x
There is one thing to remember.....this amount is for only 1 pound of hair. The price they are charging for one lb. is the same as most other Indian hair companies sell one kilo for. A kilo is 2 & 1/2 lbs. So, a kilo would cost 2 & 1/2 times the cost of 1 lb. This is kinda pricey for Indian hair, but it's worth it if they will take a credit card or Paypal. Bank transfers to the seller really suck. But unfortunately that is what all the hair companies have been doing. You can pay and wind up waiting weeks for your order, with no recourse. Once a bank transfer is put into the sellers account it is gone, no longer yours, and there is no one to complain to. Where as with Paypal their account would be frozen until problems were resolved. Similar with your credit card....the credit card company will make sure any problem is rectified or they will remove the payment to the seller.. Right now I am waiting 3 weeks and still no product from the seller of Indian hair ( Mr. Kumar)www.skmhumanhair.com the hair was a lot cheaper, but it's beginning to look like I may never receive it!
I know of a very honest indian hair company, I in no way have anything to do with this company. They are my friends, but I will not gain anything by referring you. I will give you the website as a favor if you PM me. I didn't get my last order from them because they were in Iran for one month as Christian Ministers! As I said, they are very honest people.
***update: Just heard from SKM hair. I was able to track and confirm the package with FedEx. So, I will be getting the Indian hair next week.
I just found out that some of the very light blonde indian hair colors start with gray hair. Maybe that's why you'll find a few black hairs in the middle of all the blonde. Maybe that's why some people have trouble with the lighter colors.
