QuoteReplyTopic: Dlux/Pro-tape install Posted: August 12 2006 at 4:34pm
I did this install almost a week ago. I used 22 and 18 inch Dlux hair. And the Pro-tape rolls. I installed an INSANE amount of hair for this install! LOL
I was a little out of my mind when I installed this hair. I installed 7 rows all double wefted. 1 short row above the top row on each side of my head, then to boot I installed 3 rows (single wefts)across the top/back of the horseshoe area....for a total of 12 ounces of hair....WHOA. Its alot of hair. I 'thought' this hair wouldnt have much volume, but it has alot more than I thought it would! But I love it, and I love how this install hides my shorter natural layers on the top. It appears that I have one long layer.
heres a picture that shows what I mean by the 3 rows across the top
I havent had this hair in long enough to give a good opinion or review. But I will tell you one good thing and one bad thing. The good thing is it takes curl and holds curl EXCELLENT, probably BETTER than any hair Ive ever used. The bad thing is it SHEDS like a BIG DOG.
I have done absolutely NO cutting and blending on this install nor do I need to, to make it blend. The rows across the top back have solved this issue for me! I might do a little layering at the front, but I wouldnt have to.
looks so beautiful!! Looks so natural!! My dlux did hold curl for days and days, normally I can't get it hair to hold curl at all, but sadly, it's like my pretips and shed like crazy! =(
It looks amazing, let us know how it holds up!!

LOL...I am used to wearing 8 ounces, my last install was 9, so this really doesnt 'feel' like alot more. I could tell a difference for a day or two but not now!
Holy Moly that's a ton of hair Sherrie! It looks awesome! This hair holds a curl better than any other I've tried. I recently installed a new full head of hair on myself with our newest shippment to check for shedding. As always feedback is much appreciated so I can make improvements where needed
p.s. I'll make a new thread with some pictures of my newest install.
12ounces!!! OMG!!! Where do you put it?? I can barely get 4 on my head, if I put 12 on I would have to have a roller cart just to hold my head up, you must have great neck muscles!!!
