there's been discussion on it over at diyextension's forum. those that have done installs, had some success, but some strands coming out. I have the system also, yet have only been practicing on a mannequin, trying different size bonds, and getting comfortable with it before installing on myself. (i haven't installed anything on my head before but clip ins!)
I strongly suggest NOT waiting to install the TT just before your Vegas trip. It seems there is alot of trial and error with this system. I would hate to hear that you've installed it, then say, the next day arrive in vegas, and they're loosening up and falling out! I would try it at home first, and see how your technique holds with the bonds. If it doesn't, at least you won't be taking time out of your trip to 'redo' anything. the best thing with this method is that the take down is quick and easy, but would hate for you to have to deal with it on your trip.
the most common error I've heard is not using enough of your own hair to attach the bond and extension strand.
Virgin? Oh helll no. It tangled and matted. I had a blend of remy and non remy in the install. Blonde hair always craps out quicker than darker hair because of the decolorizing process. I have 5 oz of virgin blonde on the way for my next install!

I went on vacation with mine in and the hair itself literally died from swimming in the pool! The bonds held up fine.
Thanks pooks11!!! Excellent to hear at least the TT bonds survived, as there was still some concern over that, especially since it's summer Alot of us still question how the TT bonds might hold up in the ocean, if anyone can testify on that scenerio?
My condolences on the death of your hair. that's a sad loss. Have you at least tried to resuscitate(sp?) the Remy hair in an overnight oil/deep conditioner bath? I've heard of some girls doing that, and it working.
Where did you get the virgin blonde, if I might ask? (i'm a blonde family member) thanks!
I did a Redken CAT treatment, an overnight soak in some BES Midopla, this hair was D-E-A-D! I got the virgin blonde from this link: http://www.hairwork.com/bidhere.htm

? You can't fix it? I thought it was virgin hair? I'm glad the bonds survived.
