QuoteReplyTopic: How dark is Plastikhaar's Dunkelbraun?? Posted: September 18 2006 at 11:32am
I recently put an order with Plastikhaar for 3 Dunkelbraun and one manogany weft and I wondered if anayone could tell me how dark it actually is as the pictures on the site are hard to tell. My hair is deffinately a dark brown almost black in some places and I wondered how closly this would match..anyone??
Here ya go, hun. Here's a photo of the two Plastikhaar colors for you. Comparing to an hh color ring, Dunkelbraun (top) is #33 & Mahaghoni (bottom) is #2.
I ordered the dunkel brown and when it arrived I thought it looked copper brown, in low light it looks dark, but in high light or sun light I think its quite copper brown.
Amm, can you tell us about the quality of the plastikhaar? How does it feel? After some washes? Does it stay shiny? Is it soft?
Would you recommend it or is thermofibre better?
Many questions, I know..., but I feel safe asking you...

I adore Plastikhaar! PH feels typically synthetic when wet (as does thermo). It's coarse and then when it starts to dry it completely changes to very soft, silky hair. Some say it's too shiny, some say it's just right. I feel it's just right for my own hair so it's a good match for me personally. Even up close people didn't realize it wasn't my hair.
Thermofiber vs PH. Hmmm. I like both equally. And, not many people think so but PH *can* be curled with a curling iron when the hair is damp. Just like thermo can! It holds the curl through washings as well.
When I wore PH, I twisted it into a side bun at night when I slept. Jenny RR introduced this procedure to us as "boinking." My PH was permanently waved by this boinking and I never had to style it. I released the boink, fingercombed and out the door I went.
For loose extensions...
Every day styling with hot tools and blending challenges, I'd choose thermo. For incredible color selection, length, and a wash & go lifestyle, PH all the way.
"Boinking"; sounds funny but interesting. I'm guessing it creates that luscious waves you see on famous people?
Anyway, sounds like I should give PH a try... can it be used with fusion? What system would be best?
Thanks for answering!

Oh yeah, I looove the styles PH does with their extensions. I'd love to learn.
I'm moving to South Africa in a few months and would like to do things like that over there.

Aww thanx Amm xx. I actually received the 4 wefts this morning and they are perfect, The dunkelbraun is perfect colour match although the mahogany looks alot lighter than I thought but it'll still work... they feel just like human hair:). When installed I rekon they will be around waist length which is perect, I'll keep ya'll updated on how it goes and try post a pic.
Amm, Did you use the straight or wavy hair? My own hair is a little wavy.
I see they have amazing lengths!
Ok, I'll (probably) get off your case after this
