So my first shrinkies install was a trying one! But it's done! When I went to
put in the strands, I realized (half-way through my head of course) that
the strands were too thin, so I ended up having to melt 2 together, then it
started looking better, anyways, here's the before:

After I finished (I liked it, but it didn't blend AT ALL!!! Oh, and I just woke
up and took it out of the braids, so it looks weird haha)

So then I dyed it all darked red to help it blend and cut it, so this is the
end:

AWESOME color! Yes yes, you must tell us what hair you used! Was the
curl "built in" to the hair, or did you style it yourself? Excellent shine.

Gorgeous reds, great job picking them out!

The hair I got from ebay, it was really beautiful hair, silky and shiny, but
now I don't know what is going on, it's horribly tangled and looks dried
and bad.

The curls were just from hot rollers, it really gives it nice shine too! I also
use the biosilk, I love that stuff!

Yeah, I can never get these pics working!! Sorry!!

You did a great job.I really love those colors. Are you having any more luck with the tangles and dryness?

You know what, my last extensions I would put some leave-in
conditioner, comb them out real good and braid them at night. These, I
have just been combing it and wrapping it up in a bun. So the last few
nights I started doing the braiding them at night, and it seems like they
are better now. So maybe it was just that simple and not the hair. I'm
going to see what happens...
