for the record i will say i've been wearing bonded wefts with rk (i assume double drawn - i bought some of Amm's leftovers) in #27 and #12 and it is somewhat persnicketty hair...but i cannot emphasize that it is about 550 x better, more manageable, softer, and better looking than typical BSS crap. i'm only used to BSS crap and plastikhaar, so i was pleasantly surprised. the link about has some tips that i think have totally worked for me including don't look at it sideways when wet, let it airdry (maybe a diffuser would work also), the olive oil, i think the humidity also makes a difference. i live in humid TN and it's cuh-razy some mornings - i went to iowa recently and it was like.....where did this manageable hair come from haha?
i'm rocking a she mullet right now cuz i didn't put in quite enough. i just got a titch more so i'll post some pics later this week.
for the money, maybe i have low expectations, but i like RK. could be worse.

Hi Gina.
I bought it and wore it once. Single drawn remy, 20" #4. I didn't like it at all and took it out after 1 month - back to double drawn. The hair was not nearly as strong as either of the double drawn batches I have worn - it would break, got lots of splits, and DID tangle. But maybe it was just that particular bag. I still have 3 bags of it if anyone's interested (sure, after that review!).
This double drawn I have in now is absolutely the bomb.

amm hooked me up so i'm good now. i am good with the demis making darker, but you are right going lighter is problematic (*i stink with bleach*). in the future i have high hopes for lush on the weft...but if you ever want to order some RK together in the future i'm your girl.
i guess the secret is starting with BSS hair that feels like brillo after one wash. the rk is a dream after that haha.

I am reeeeeeeeeally happy for you blonde gals that amm seems to have the line on some great blonde hair. It's been a problem for a long time. I've been suffering right there with y'all with the bleaching/breaking/brillo problems. But I have a new appreciation for beautiful blonde hair cuz now I know how really hard it is to acquire and maintain.
And I will say that those long blonde installs are SMOKIN' HOT.

I know RK ulimately got the thumbs down. Just curious if anyone ever wore or has an opinion on the Single Drawn?
*** If it matters...If I order this will be a brown color***
I'll send you a bag if you wanna see what it's like. Like I said, I only tried one bag out of the four I bought. The others may be better. It's 20" (pretty sure) #4. If you like it, keep it. If not, send it back to me.
Hi Syren, I am interested in the 20" remy single drawn hand tied weft in #2. Do you still have it? If so, how much would you want for it? And do you have 1 or 2 packs? So many questions! Sorry x
