Almost immediately upon offering and test marketing my hair extension system, inquiry of the product hit these boards so not many have heard about it and can describe, or offer advice as to its use.  We have had a few snags along the way with understanding how the product is used and the process achieved by some first time users, but I believe this can be expected and we have done everything possible to keep the same error from happening twice.  We make every attempt to make sure all our users have had a satisfactory experience.  (We would encourage anyone who has issues with the system to contact us so we can work correct it.)

Since that time I am happy to report great reviews have been pouring in as to the comfortable wear of my bond as opposed to other strand methods such as fusion, rings, etc.  (One user wrote saying this saved her $1000!  Now that is a TON of $$ and I was speechless!)  Actual email feedback can be read on, http://www.tiffanytwist.com/hair/raves.htm

My method wasn't intended to compete with other methods, just to solve a few issues I had with hair extension methods that were expensive and damaging to hair.

The product was immediately inquired of and requests for video came in.  There was an urgency and, although I wanted to show the product being applied, I didn’t want to remove all my extension hair to do it, (bad idea) thus the fact I had a foot and a 1/2 of hair on top of my head, caused this to look very “messy” even though the hair certainly was combed and parted neatly at the application point but very hard to see.

Since then, and when I removed the extensions 8 weeks later, to care for my hair and change the attachment point, I put up new video that gives a better perspective and I am so glad I read your point on that matter.

Of course a neat application is VERY important, not only for the safety of the hair, but also for comfort.  I have read many DIY-er’s hair extension nightmares before becoming one myself.  And this was part of creating the product I did with this system.  Both secure and gentle.  I can actually remove a stray hair from the bond without harming either! Wow!

You ask.  “And how secure are these bonds if you can remove them just by bending back and forth a few times and they break?

All I can answer is, they are.  But it’s about 5 to 7 times of bending back and forth to “crack” the bond from its top to its bottom.  This turns the bond to dust and allows you to remove the extension hair without it gripping at, and pulling out, your own hair!  You see it with your own eyes in the removal video on,  http://www.tiffanytwist.com/hair/hair_extension_removal.htm (I have cracked the bond a time or 2 and it still holds for weeks, its not like an accidental break will cause you to lose your extension.)

Actually, anyone who has watched me perform this removal of my secure extension hair stands with their jaw dropped, as if a magician has just made an elephant disappear!  So for, “exactly what is the glue/bond/resin/product that is being used?"  Well, a true magician will never tell, will he!!

But I can, and am proud to, say the products I use are either safe, natural, non-toxic, cosmetic grade, or all 4. Which is far better than those awful chemicals we tend to use on our head, wouldn’t you agree!

I would be pleased to answer any questions someone may have on this system.  Not every method is for everyone and whatever I can do to help someone pinpoint why this system may, or may not, be right for them, I would be happy to do.  For a little more basic explanation on the system, please read, http://www.tiffanytwist.com/hair/tiffany_press.htm
