OK IM DONEEE I only used 6 bundles of hair and may end up adding a little more to her sides. It took five hours and i didnt finish till 11:30 last night so I wasnt seeing clearly.;p; here are her before and after pics. This was very challenging for me because her hair was sooo short in the back. I want to see it after she washes is though before I go adding more.

I use a different amount of hair with weft vs strands, sounds like youre using strands?
It also matters how long the strands are, 4.5 oz of 8" will be a lot more than 4.5oz of 18".

I always use more strand oz than weft oz.
