I always debate what color hair I want to have, lol! Right now I am mainly brunette with highlights (blonde). I ordered my extension hair in #4 though, so I will defintly be going back to full brunette.
I think I will end up putting in some highlights again though. I feel like my face really brightens up with blonde highlights, I just HAVE TO HAVE some form of blonde in my hair! LOL!
I feel like when I am a complete brunette my face gets lost in my hair, lol. I have like the olive type skintone, not really pale, so brown is supposed to match me, lol.

My natural hair didn't even look good in a ponytail! Aside from it being super thin and fine, it was also very dead from when I was constantly bleaching it blonde, lol!
Many years later, it has taken havoc and I am going back to natural brown so I can give it a chance to get healthy again!
Ga, the things we do for our hair!
I always used to hear the saying, "A women's hair is her crowning glory!" I never believed it b/c I had such crappy hair, but now with extensions, I do!

I find, the ppl that I know, when I tell them about having extensions reaction is always the same: Well what does your real hair look like, Is it like two inches long? LOL!
They always think I have no natural hair! It is down past my shoulders, just baby fine and gross looking!
It is true, times have changed! If we were in LA then this would not be a big deal at all!

Same for me, before living in Paris, I was living in a smaller town in France, and having hair extensions is still hard to believe over there!!
But a few years ago I bet this forum didn't exist, so times change fortunately!
I think most people have mixed reactions about hair extensions at first (at least in France!) because they think you just shaved the hair on some poor indian woman's head yourself!!

I did order from Ebonyline, I thought I remembered hearing only good things about them! I will let you know how it holds up for me!
I agree about sometimes it is just better to pay alittle more. I have tried to buy hair that I thought was a bargain, it turned out to be a disaster! lol!

Bohyme is sold at very good price on Ebonyline and a bit cheaper on Esthersonline.com.
There's not a big difference of price in the end between Jet Set hair and Bohyme, maybe $20 or $30, but maybe prices varies + w/ curly textures (I only try silky straight).
I know it feels good to change but maybe it's better to pay a little more and get good quality stuff?..

I used Jetset beore and have no complaints about their customer service, it was fine and my order arrived quickly.
I wouldnt buy their hair again though, I ordered a 613 and a dark brown, I forget the shade and both were easily as bad as any bss hair I've bought. After a couple of weeks of wear I was ready to rip it off my head it was so bad, it was a snarled mess 10 minutes after brushing... just awful.
It seems from what people are saying it's hit and miss with them, some people love it, others had a really bad time with it.

I realized that page was down on Kristins site, I need to order before she gets it back up, otherwise I prolly would have just ordered D*Lux again.
I had looked at her bohyme, but she didn't have very many color choices by the pics. On Ebony line they had a lot more color choices.
That is nice to know about the body wave. My hair has a slight wave to it but I always end up straightening it. Now at least I know I can get body wave and it'll still be striaght!

I wanted to try D-Lux this time, but Kristin isn't selling the wefted hair til she gets to the bottom of the shedding problem, which is fine. I'll try it eventually, I'm sure.
Meanwhile, doesn't Kristin sell Bohyme also? Why not buy it from her? If it's a matter of body wave over silky straight, Bohyme body wave is wavy in name only - one wash and it's completely straight (but about 2" longer!!).
