WOW!  That is absolutely amazing!

My bf has a little round balding spot in the back of his head.  I wonder if this would work for him.  Did you use the shrinkies.net shrinkies and just cut them in thirds?

Isn't that awesome? And his big, happy smile shows just how much he loves your work, Amanda! You did such a fantastic job. I still can't get over the transformation.

Amanda, that's incredible!

So, did you cut the shrinkies in half or thirds!

My husband needs this, LOL!  He had hair all the way down his back when I met him, and not he's showing quite a bit of forehead....

So, can you take an up close photo?  Are these undectable?

Great work, you hair extension pioneer!

Wow that's awesome! I guess there is hope for my father! Haha... poor guy (my dad that is)...

I've never been daring to try something like this. How do you think it will hold being that he doesn't have much hair to begin with? It seems like it would be a similar job you might be able to do an a cancer patient... let us know how it holds up Amanda. Great job.

Thanks guys

Metal - I cut the shrinkies into thirds.  You couldn't see anything apart from at the crown area but he is going to use some sort of fibre and a spray around that area because its so pink, but we are only talk about a tiny circle.

Kristen - this will hold fine as I only put around 20 extension hairs to his two or three so there isn't a lot of weight on his hair.

Rz - yes it took 20 hours.  I charged him $800

Good thinking! I bet that guy is stoked! How did you get a guy to be interested in extensions for that particular situation? I've seen some model guys add extensions to give them a little length or color but I've never seen it for building a new head of hair. It looks great.

Well,  I can't wait for an answer about the burnt fingers question, but I have to chime in and say you are truly DIY, seriously I compliment you on your innovations as an extensionist.  That rocks.  Cheers.
