Tape Install - Angie

I had to go on a week long sabatical from my family otherwise you would have seen video of me being dragged out of my house in handcuffs  after going on butt kicking rampage

 

And yes...we are going to keep on doing installs until our eyes cross.

 

Picture this,  Saturday night after we picked up Barbara Lhotan (my friend the hairdresser who does extensions) from the airport we went back to her hotel room.  There we were, the three or us, threading wires with silicones beads and practicing threading HH strands onto a mannequin on my tripod.  It was 11:00 at night and we were all bone tired but we kept threading until we had several rows in.  We also used pre-tipped bonded strands and a fusion tool to add some of those to the mannequin.  I still have the mannequin so Billy and I can keep practicing for doing these to Brigid and some of our other models.

 

Angie (who is already talking about her next install) is recruiting all her friends as potential extension models so hopefully we will be doing lots of new installs over the next few weeks and will try as many different tapes, glues, beads, rings, tools, types and brands of hair as possible.  And yes, we will continue to make mistakes and stub our toes but we will keep on trying. 

 

Thanks for all your help and support in our endeavors.

If I use a hair with volume like the French Refined that I am wearing now, it takes less. I am wearing about 7 ounces and has major volume, more than my average 9 ounces of straight hair.

 

I cant fit that much in without doubling or tripling the rows.

 

Are you sure it was 8 ounces? Most hair is prebundled in 4 ounce packages. I was suprised to see an 8 ounce package of hair. But I am not familiar with this brand, so maybe they package it differently than what I am used to seeing.

 

Congrats Angie! You look very cute with the long extensions or without! But the long really suits you! Have fun with the colors, I am too old for it and my work would NEVER allow it! hehehe
