QuoteReplyTopic: Full Headed Weaves Posted: January 22 2005 at 11:38pm
Getting my license? No, I've never given it any serious thought. I love reading about extensions and learning about different techniques, but it's really more of a hobby for me. I'm far better at researching this sort of thing than I am at actually doing it. It's a lot of responsibility doing other people's hair; I can barely figure out my own, believe me!
Before I started wearing extensions and pieces, I really wasn't very interested in hair at all, to tell you the truth. My own hair is very limiting, so I always wore it in basically the same way and the same color. I was much more interested in makeup. But once I discovered extensions--even though I've been through a lot of nightmare experiences with them--I became fascinated with hair for the first time, really. All of a sudden, things were possible that weren't before, so I've become rather obsessed... :)
i know there are different ways to do them but the way i used to do it was to cornrow in a spiral then put the wrap on the head and sew the weft onto the rows.
the T-closer is awesome for speed. doesnt move well though. jenny, have you ever considered getting your license?
Kristin, i dont care if you are promoting your business here, please keep up all the valuable info you are giving, you should have your own forum....smile, i am learning alot from you experiences, and i must say that you are very helpful here, and very kind as well, Its not like you have to do this at all, you have a great site as well, and you hair....fab!!!!....Kudos to you!!!!!!!

with full headed weaves, I've seen them done with your natural hair in a wrap, then neck strips over that, then a booty cover over that, and then you just go in a circle around your head with the weave, bonded of course.
if you lay the weave horizontal, you have to brush back your bangs to cover the top track, I seen this done with more coarse hair...
It is what it is...

I dont get invloved in stuff like this but this time Im going to have my say.
I appreciate Kristin for her business experience and I appreciate Amm for her DIY experience. Its very refreshing to get both sides of the hair extension issue. Yes their veterans on here and the reason is because they know so much and are so willing to part with that knowledge. Ive been on other boards where people are not as nice or knowledgeable and Im glad I came across this board.
There Im done, thank you, now back to the thread...lol

Do you two perhaps get on this site together to promote each other????? I am just curious because on every question Kristin and Amm are always responding with each other. And are on every subject in the hair extension catagory. It almost seems like a scam to promote Kristins business. I hope you both are not trying to pull something over us. It is very obvious that you two know each other. You may be vetern but there is a reason for it. I think were all catching on. I think integrity issues need to be addressed. I come on here hoping to find some answers and all I see is Kristin and AMM responding to each other and Amm supporting Kristin and her hair business. Something is not right here! I think I will go somewhere else hopefully I will find a site that doesnt have scams like this.
Umm.. what you going on about? I'm only asking because there are alot of experienced people on here that are really helpful... anywayzzz...
i'm on about the full coverage weave. I tried doing cornrows on a dummies head that go straight back.. and sewed on the weave horizontally.. it came out fine it's just the very top (the parting) you can really see it!

Please...I'm not even in the hair business (not that AMM is either). As far as I'm concerned, they can bring it on!
I think your "jealous competitor" theory is right, by the way. A few of us already know who "Kim" is, and if she shows up again, make no mistake, we'll call her out on it. It could be a tad embarassing for a professional stylist to be caught acting like a jealous child online, but if that's what she wants, so be it!

Does anyone know how to do a full headed weave? I've looked everywhere just find out a little bit of information on patterns of the tracks and exactly how you do it but i can't find anything.. so if anyone here has some information i would be really grateful as i would love to experiment with it! Thank you!
