This install was put in on 8/21 so I guess that'll be 3 weeks this weekend that its been in. It's all in with clear standard shrinkies.

I wanted to test this first and get the hair out there to a few others to test before I said anything but suffice to say - I am totally stoked.

This hair was made to my specs for shrinkie installs. It's 100% remy with tips that are too big for almost all small microrings and most medium. There's an extra coat of keratin over the top that sets the hair very secure inside the heat shrink. Smaller tips could be made for ring installs if desired.

The hair is performing perfectly and is doing better than the Bohyme. There's no tangles, no matting and it's a breeze to straighten and curl. Curl lasts several days between washings when loosely braided for sleep. I've simply undone the braid, combed, and it's ready to wear.

I'm hoping to get some feedback if anyone would be interested in this. 30 colors are available and then there's fancy colors as well. Any and all of them can be custom blended - even fancy with the natural colors and lengths vary. I'm wearing 22" right now. I'll be ordering a lot more of this in the near future because I am sick of tipping!


Newly installed



At 2 1/2 weeks



Straightened with iron

That install is awsome as usual.But i am curious since you didnt say what brand of hair it is.It looks so shiny and pretty in the pics.So what is it? Did you dye that hair yourself or was it predyed?Either way the color is so nice.

Wow! It's beautiful.

I'd be very interested. I didn't enjoy pretipping one bit.

I believe amm is working directly with a manufacturer/supplier and having it pretipped & packaged to her specifications. If it works out well I think it would likely be packaged under her own label...doesnt this sound AWESOME!

Thank you for the positive feedback! I have spent a small fortune and have almost 2 full boxes of trial and error hair that never lasted a good week without turning into a mess. Every one of those companies told me it was good hair. NOT! Now, I think I finally hit on one that's a keeper.

To answer some of the q's out there...

It's 100% European remy. There's no brand name as it's not BSS hair and it's not sold under any label that I am aware of. Like sherrie said, this hair was made to my specs and a full head already pre-tipped cost less than a single weft of Bohyme. :)

The hair is available in 30 natural colors and about 10 or 15 fancy colors. I think they can make any fancy color I request and any color they can produce, they can blend and pre-tip it into one strand so it's already pre-blended. The most common ones would be 613/27 & 18/22 but imagine if you wanted 4/8 or 2/14. That would be possible.

I will check into wefts. I will also check into pre-blending the hair in any color combination on wefts.

No olive oil soak needed. This is not Indian hair and it is certainly not even anything close to what the pre-colored RK hair turned out to be. This hair is butter smooth.

Bodywave is available. I have some of that, too, but I consider it more of a soft french refined after it's worn. I am still trying to decide if I like it and I would have to wear a whole head of it myself to determine if it's good enough.

I don't leave any install in over 3 months.

The colors I'm wearing here are #14, #22, #10 and #6 underlayer.

That hair looks beautiful. You have all converted me to offering my clients the remi hair. I think that most of my clients just don't want to pay for it when they remove it every 2-3 months and start again. But I am going to convince them all to try this hair and the shrinkies too.

With the pre-tipped you'll be selling, will it be able to be re-used after the shrinkies are removed or will the tip melt underneath? Will you be ordering it in bulk or as people order it from you?

WOW, that looks great!!!! 

 I am new to doing extentions and this is my first post so I'm hoping someone could help me with a question.  I have done alot of reserach on the hair and i to have ordered the Remi hair to use in my hair.  I bought it on a weft but will need to pre-tip it.  I  also want to use shrinkies to put them in.  My question is, what would anyone recommend for me to use to pretip?  I have read about some many that I'm confusses.  LG, Kertien, etc.....I need help.

angelemma - I'll definitely carry it on my site and will have stock on
hand. I have been looking for months for something I am happy to
wear myself and can offer with this attachment method and this is
finally it. I have the tips coated by the supplier so that when they are
removed from the shrinkie, they are soft and pliable. They are easily
reformed into tips again right after removal or you can tap them with
the wand for a second or two and reshape them later. There's no
need to take the strands out and have to retip them again with extra
glue. They're holding up extremely well and I am having no shedding
problems so far.

Did you have to add anything to the tip's Amm, like LG?  Is this hair stick straight then? I would love some with curl because I have quite a few clients that need curl. I am very excited!!!
