Hi everyone, haven't been on here in a long time, just thought I'd post some pictures, sorry if they come out huge!
Here is my hair I put in last night, I used remy indian hair which is one of the best quality hair I've used, it's so silky and shiney!
18" colour #4 underneath and colour #4/27 piano blend on top.
 
 
Here are the pre tipped strands I used:
 
And here is my friends hair I done last week, colour #1B:

I love your install, the colour mix is very interesting! The little highlights definitely give that natural look to your color, great choice of colors, and it matches you hair perfectly! Tongue

How much hair did you use (in oz) and which brand is it?

Thank you!
Well my hairdresser didn't dye my hair the exact colour I wanted, I wanted it dark chocolate brown with really chunky highlights, so I ended up just working with what I had! lol It still came out ok.
I think I must have used about 8 oz of hair (I like it thick!) and the hair is called Roxys, it's what I sell to other extentionists, so this install I wanted to test a full head of the hair, so far so good! :-)

I agree, the mixture of high and lowlights is VERY believable and it looks like your natural hair. I would be fooled.

It does look very full!
Please keep us posted on how the hair behaves after a month & more, I am always curious to hear about new hair brands!

Thank you everyone!
I think intalls on myself usually take about 4 - 4.5 hours since I have to make dinner in between etc! lol I don't think I could wear hair any longer, it was 18"but I cut it to roughly 16" :-)

Thank you! Pburgh, you should just go for it! I mean as long as your hair is a couple of inches to hide the bonds, it will be fine! I've seen a few men installs now, so post pics if you get it done! :-)

I def will post pics :) My hair is currently like 3 inches long so I may need to let it grow a little more before the instalation. Id like to be able to at least get it in a ponytial after I get the extensions added. How did the men installs go that uve seen? whats the longest extensions u could get and what would u recommend for length?

I know this post is a little old but I really love your hair. I believe i am going to try to get my hair back to it's natural shade of brown and it looks close to the color you have now and  was wondering if you could tell me the brand of hair it is because i love it. I would like a little more blonde in mine though. But i love it on you and the hair looks really great. I am not a professional stylist though so i understand i cant buy some products but if that is available to the public please tell me the brand because it looks fabulous.
