you don't need an extensionist if you're just cutting it to even up the ends. Call around and see how much they charge to come to your house.

Well first off my hubby tried to cut the extensions with scissors straight across the hair, at first it lookes fine than we look again it was real choppy, and i turned my head then it looked uneven. I think needs to be thinned out at the ends. I have a razor and thinning shears but have no clue how to use them..... I live in southwest michigan and I doubt theres anyone aroun who even does extensions, its a small farm area.

well that would depend on what you're looking to achieve. If you just want to even out the bottom or a part that's longer than your own hair then that shouldn't be a problem. Where do you live? You may be able to find a stylist that will come to your house.
Kudos to your husband for installing your extensions. I'm impressed.

are you sure you don't want a stylist who's worked with fusion to do that for you? You could cut your own hair and it would look terrible when you take the fusion out.
