I've nevered ordered the D-lux hair before, so I would like to hear from people who have worn it for a while for their opinion. 

How does it hold up?
 
Shedding?
 
Tangles?
 
Thanks!

I've worn D-lux for my last 3 or 4 installs and think it's really great, especially for the value.  I'd used Unique Wiiv and His & Her hair before so that's my basis for comparison.
 
I've used everything from black to every shade of auburn, dark red, burgundy, and my current install is the 1st experience w/blondes.  I don't know why...I haven't changed a thing i.e. styling products, irons, hairdryer, etc, but I swear that the blonde holds a curl longer - even without any spray at all.  The darker colors held well too, but there is a marked difference at least in my experience.  It's actually the opposite of what I'd expect since blonde would have been processed more...  Has anyone else experienced this?
 
Now that I think about it, I've used all types...the individual clip in pieces (for highlights/dramatic effect), stick hair, keratip, and wefts.  No complaints.  When I install fusion or stick I usually use 2 strands because I love me some BIG hair!  But that's personal preference not because the strands aren't thick enough.
 
No more shedding than to be expected, there's a note on the website re: the lighter blondes keratip pieces & they give you fusion chips, at least there was last time I checked.  But great customer svce too. 
 
I usually change after 8wks or so...short attention span LOL, but the hair is still in good enough shape that I could reuse it if I wanted to.  Usually don't want to because I'm already set on something new, but I could.
 
Hope it's helpful!  Smile

The "silky straight" gets wavy. Shedding is noticeable but not horrible.
Otherwise its nice.

Edit, the Bohyme is much better.

I wore just a few strands of the u-tip silky straight for added thickness for about 6 weeks with no problems at all.

My client is having major problems with shedding with the light blondes, but the site did comment on it, of course I noticed it after I already ordered and put it in...

I just receive my hair order today and I have to say the colors look beautiful.  I plan to melt the keratin and make it into 'stick hair' and apply it with a shrink link.  I hope if I do all that, then I won't have the shedding.

Yeah, I did have lots of shedding.

I love the hair though, the curl it held like none other.

After melting a few strands together and adding some extra keratin for the second install of the hair, it was fine, so the shedding will prob be fine for you metal.
