Yes, I would say a #5 or #6.  Try google or yahoo for skin wefts.  I still think you'd be haapy with them.  Something else to consider would be tapes w/ hand tied wefts, like bohyme.  They are very very thin so you can double or triple the wefts in one peice of tape and still end up with a very flat effect.  Bohyme has very good quality hair, I know jetsetextension has a very small hand tied weft also...

K..I took some more dry pics.  They're still not great cuz I had to take them of myself, but hopefully it will help a little.  I posted them in a fotki album to make it easier b/c I didn't know which ones would be most helpful.

Thanks for all the help from everyone...I really appreciate it! :)

Brown???  I know...that's probably not very helpful! :)  I don't know the exact shade.  I'd say taht the pictures are pretty accurate...I'll take some more of the top dry too as soon as I get a chance.  I have trouble even knowing exactly what color my hair is now because it used to be light blonde and has darkened a lot since high school and even college.  Sorry..I'm so help! :)

I just got done reading all these posts and looking at your photos.  I think you would be happy getting some skin wefts, especially for your crown area and around your hair line.  Skin wefts = seamless.  As long as you get a color close to your own, you shouldn't have any trouble blending.  I think you could totally do this on your own too.  You would attach the wefts with tapes or with an adhesive like Liquid Gold or Vapon No Tape.  You could get away with a wave pattern too I think. 
 
Weft installs are very easy for the DIYer.  You can always have a freind or family member help you.  I'm gonna go look for a picture of an install I did w/ skin wefts....

I agree that the UPA Clip at www.laceflair.com is perfect for you.  You can contact her directly at Upaclip@laceflair.com.  She will match your hair perfectly.  There are a lot of really nice barrettes that are interchangeable some that would really dress up a ponytail for a wedding.  She has great customer service and will work with you personally.
I agree.. these look really cool.. I love phony ponies.. and the price is nice..

Thank you soooooooooooooooo much for posting all of the links...i never would've found those by myself. :)   I am goign to have a look at those over the next couple days and will get back to you with any questions, if you do'nt mind. I think I will e-mail them for information as well.  Thanks for hte warning about not committing to anything right away.  I still do'nt know if I could sit there for that long, but boy does it sound like the perfect solution!  I'll be interested to see what I find out. 
Thanks again for all of the help..I really appreciate it!!! :)
