looks to me as if your own hair is looped thru the extension loop and then maybe a special thread is wrapped around both strands just below the loop. the weft one looks like the sort of thing elton john used to wear which involved his own hair pulled thru a wig style weft and then tied into the weft hair.

the methos seems nice- but, the tiny little loop at the top of the strand the hair gets threaded thru that and then looped around and tied or something like that,
the thing i like is its very tiny attachment- what i dont like is that after two mths when they come in for maintance, u have to cut off the little threaded loop, then u use the strand to attach with a micro cylinder, so to me, whats the point of doing the thread if i am going to use a cylnder anyway.
so yeah, i have my kit for sale
anyone wants it pm me
