Ok my turn-

i installed about 10 individual strands of LUSH hair into my own head,i think about one mth ago, they are still going strong, no shedding no tangleing and i havent lost one yet,

TOday..... i just received my order of lush hair to install and offer to my clients, OMG-

first off~ the Hair- indivdial strands is what i got- is GEORGOUS

$econdly~ the Co$t is   MAGNIFICENT

and thirdly~ the Customer Service is    SUPERB

no messed up order, no late shipping for some crazy reason and best of all, it came packaged with No bend or crimps. The packaging is  really wonderful.

the hair feels so soft and silky i just want to rub my face in it!

Cant wait to install it this week! and of course some will go in my head too!!!

Thanks AMM you ROCK!!! 4Star!!!

Alrighty girls...heres my final review.  10 weeks today with the Bohyme/Lush/Hair21 bonded wefts using LG! With shrinkied on highlight and lowlights.

Wow I cant believe I pushed this install this long. The Lg gold bonds were pretty well shot 2 weeks ago...and I just didnt have time for a new install. I took out my bottom row about 2 weeks ago, but everything else was still secure other than the next to bottom row was starting to loosen.

The Bohyme performed well....so long as I didnt try to put tighter spiral curls...I just felt like it looked frizzy. As long as I used a 3/4 barrel curling iron or larger or wore it straight it looked wonderful. The ends were fried and breaking, but I could trim about 2/3 inches off this hair and re-use it again another time.

The Lush*Hair and Hair21 hair performed about equal. The strands all look good upon removal and very little breakage or fried ends. The only difference between the two is that the Lush pretips are still intact upon removal. The hair21 pretips tend to come apart.

Overall I think the Bohyme and the Lush hair held up wonderful considering the amount of torture that I put my hair through on a daily basis. I wash, blowdry and curl everyday...and if ANY blonde hair can make it 3 months under those conditions its a WINNER in my book!

So yes I would definitely use Bohyme or Lush again...the only thing I would do diferently would be to use Bohyme bodywave instead of the silky straight since the Bohyme silky straight is a very sleek straight hair and I prefer more volume.

The lush hair has more body to it. It blows out straight, but has more volume.

I think thats it....dont think I forgot anything??

Erin girl

EP is great...love em

The Softwear line does come pretipped. It's a silicone tip(for rings or shrinkies) They're pretty thin so you'd probably want to double them up.

Now, EP does offer nail hair (for fusion)to professionals only. For 70 pieces, 18" Silky straight dark colors, it's $168 and $178 for lights.

Never tried Euro or Italian, I always stick with Softwear, but the samples I have are beautiful!

*Oh yeah...Lush is pretipped for all methods. Though I use fusion and will give my tips an extra dip next install.

envious - I did go and have a look.  I bought some gorgeous italian hair that has the  most adorable soft curl and body to it.  I'm loving it and having NONE of the matting issues I had with the his and her hair.  I've had it in about 3 weeks now.

tangles - I'm in sherman oaks.  :-)  I'd love to try the lush hair as well.  in fact, I'm ready to try individuals (shrinkies) at this point I think.  I love my wefts, but no matter what bonding I use - I've used both chrissyv and liquid gold - I think I may get a more secure hold with the links.  I'm a total newbie at this, so it'll be an experiment for sure!

does the lush hair come in pre-tipped strands?  I guess I can just go have a little look-see on the website myself.  heh.  :-)  if not, I may try some bohyme or get pre tipped from EP if they sell it.  EP is pretty pricey, but the quality is fantastic.

Erin girl,

www.extensions-plus.com Has very nice wefts. They're very thin w/o the shedding.

thanks gina.  I'm not sure I'm up for the challenge yet of doing DIY shrinkies (although I'm considering it), so I guess I'll keep on the search for  better quality wefts than the ones I'm wearing now.  the lush hair sounds gorgeous though!

I've worn silky straigt Bohyme curled with medium size hot rollers, and I never had a frizz problem- just my 2 cents worth!

Erin girl,  www.Shrinkies.net

Though the Lush hair is due in late Oct. This Lush hair is pretipped for strand by strand rather than glued/sewn wefts

hi sherrie - may I ask where you buy the Lush Hair?  I went with his and  her for wefts for glue bonding, and at week 3 now the hair is constantly matting up at the back and its driving me batty.  I'd love to find something new.  thanks for the review!

Kristen the silky straight Bohyme has been like that from the beginning. I just dont think its meant to be in tighter curls and possibly the body wave would work better for that purpose, but for the curls that I normally wear, the silky straight Bohyme just doesnt perform for me. The Bohyme is not fried by any means, and it looks wonderful straight, wavy or in a big loose curl

Hmmm...Sherrie  Very odd. I'm stumped on that one!

Amm...I hate to hear that. Can you put your proflex to use?
