RemyIndianhair company

I don't think they change the price for the lighter colors.. When I was trying to place an order last week (before I realized I needed the hair sooner --I needed it in 4 days-- than Camille could get it to me), she had mentioned that she had some lighter browns in.. She didn't say the price was going to be any different.. I got the feeling the price was going to be the same.. (Since I didn't get to order, I don't know for sure if this is true)

She did say that the lighter colors go FAST when she gets them in. That's understandable since anything beyond dark brown to black colored natural Indian Hair would be a pretty uncommon find. (For me it won't matter since my stylist will be coloring the hair for me..) I want 1b with some soft brown highlights/lowlights..

Hey Diva, the blonde hair in th link at the beginning of this thread from Phil shows a picture of the blonde hair that they have for sale. Its a 4 ounce weft of 23/24 inch hair. On the forum Camille says it will go to the highest bidder. Thats why I say I wonder how much it will go for!

 

 

Diva the one I saw was posted on Tues. Feb 21st. And I read somewhere that it will stay there until sold.  I may just have to shoot her an email!

Hi again.  We just returned from our trip.

Just wanted to say that originally we found this site through searching on google for remyhairtoday.com.  Like it was said before we like to see what has been said and to respond to any comments as needed.  I tried to join back on the 14th of Feb to respond to Divavocals that I had adjusted our website in reaction to her comments.  If one person has a beef with a site then obviously others would too.

I work in IT so I'm on the computer alot even when I'm not at work. I also like to establish links and contacts so that my wife's business will grow.

We had a comment on another forum a while back that a lady said she had tried to email us but never received a reply. The problem was that my wife had replied...the lady's work email had filtered the response to a junk mail folder. By responding to her on that forum she was able to find out what happened and see that we had indeed responded.

Also my wife has found that there are alot of people; both stylists and their customers who really just do not know how to deal with hand-weft hair, or even natural remy hair because they are so used to store bought hair.

She is working on expanding what we do a little bit but wants to offer services that we can do well. The pre-tipping service is something that is done through Valencia because my wife knows Valencia and knows she does excellent work. So that is a service that my wife has provided by outsourcing it to Valencia. Trust me, we have enough work to do with just the hair alone, not to mention deal with everything else we do.  We do not just order hair and then repackage and ship it. My wife spends alot of time getting the hair ready for her customers by washing and conditioning the hair once she receives it. This helps make sure hair is in good condition plus tests the wefts for any problems.

My wife does the majority of the work and responds to 99% of the emails she receives...the other 1% I respond to (under careful dictation from her) so that her hands are free.  My mother and her mom help when they can.

As for hair colors and prices. Since the hair is natural hair we get all shades of browns and blacks. I dont know the numbers for the hair colors. Prices for the hair are determined by length, texture and format (bulk or weft). Special colors like that blonde are much harder to get so obviously they are priced according to demand.

Just remember...the hair is natural so it can be dyed to required colors very easily.

You know during my communications with your wife it became CLEAR that she really KNEW her product from a true "been there, done that" kind of perspective.. Like she was on a mission to do this out of her own quest for (as one of the members here said.. ) the "holy grail" of hair.. I could really appreciate that she knew the deal with BSS hair.. I wish you both well.. I'll be ordering soon..

I promise you that the price is worth it.. My hair lasted two years. I brought the hair home after my last takedown and re-install, and once I clean it I could actually us it again. (I'm trying out RK Hair right now) As for the sample, they took my from the back of my head just an inch above the neckline.. The sample size was large enough to match the color and texture, but small enough that my hair blended right over the spot. Think about 1/2 the size of a yellow school pencil if you were to measure around it.

malibu wrote: I noticed with EP's hair that when you run your fingers through it, it tangles at the bottom. Is that normal? I know they have excellent quality so I wasn't expecting my fingers to have to work through the bottom. BTY, what is a closure?

No hair is tangle free. Even your own natural hair will tangle. It's the degree of tangling and shedding that you should be looking at... What you don't want is for the hair to mat. Mats are tangles from HELL, and EP hair does not mat..

A closure is a piece that is bonded or sewn in to the crown area. It would have a microfilament or latex piece under the hair that looks like a natural part.. Next time you go to EP ask them to show them to you.. A few of the girls who work there wear 'em.. and TRUST me.. You would never know just looking.. They were nice enough to let me see their hair.. I really love that they stand by their products so much that the people who work there wear the hair.. Wonder if they have any part time jobs.. The employee discount must be awesome!

I got sew-in extensions.. (pics here:)

I've tried other methods (pinchbraids, fusion) But call me old school.. I have had the best results with sew-in extensions. Besides the take down process for sew-ins isn't as long, dramatic or drying to my hair as some of the strand by strand methods.. and I like the fact that I can reuse the hair.. I may look into shrinkies (sorry I used the "S" word ) The hair can be reused, but not sure how it will hold up under some of my styling products. Then again, the takedown and the removal process is somewhat of a turnoff for me..

I know sew-ins get a bad rep sometimes, but honestly I haven't had problems with bulkiness, heaviness, or blending and styling versatility.. My stylist is very good, and I can wear my hair up or in a ponytail if I choose to.. The thing is I'm pretty simple when it comes to hair styles anyway.. When I discovered drawstring ponytails, and buns, I swear I wore a variety of them nearly EVERY day for almost three years..

Yep.. I wasn't interested in the bulk hair because like I said, the shedding and takedown process of fusion extensions was a real turnoff for me.. I'll be buying the wefted hair.. (As soon as I can wrangle some free funds..) I'm wearing my RK Hair right now.. It's going on two weeks and so far so good with this hair..

Thanks.. My Jonathan is the BOMB! His work is completely natural looking and long lasting..

Yes he sizes the wefts and cuts them to fit each row as he installs.. We used the RK machine wefted hair. However, the top three tracks we used the RK handtied wefts.. RKs handtied wefts were unlike any handtied wefts I've ever seen before.. They looked more like mini versions of the machine wefts..

Camille's wefts are the "traditional" style of handtied weft, and they must be sealed when you cut them. Or buy yourself some Fray Check and seal the wefts yourself. If you've never done this use some cheap BSS hair to practice with. Camille offers a service where she will seal the wefts for you if you don't want to attempt this..

Amen!

Oh...by the way Diva, I did email Camille about that blonde hair, and waiting to hear!
