Hiya
 
Can anyone tell me which is the best hair extensions they have used. I've been buying my extensions off ebay (different sellers) and they start tangling/matting within a week. I need some that last a bit longer! i wear them everyday.
 
if anyone has bought any off ebay and they were really good can you let me know
 
 
thanks alot :)

they are all pretty low grade from most ebay sellers unless specifically stated. The cuticle in the hair has been destoroyed to make it "suitable" for the extensions so they matt and tangle together after a few washes because all the products and sillicon [or whatever it is =X] that have coated the hair before its packaged to make it straight before it can be sold have washed off.
John Freida frizz ease can improve the texture a bit if it started getting dry and matted but you'll need to use it very often and its pretty expensive.
If you are finding it unsuitable, stop buying it from ebay and check out the link list on this forum where they sell higher grades of hair that will last for longer and probably save you a lot of money in the long run, despite them being expensive in comparison to the cheaper stuff from ebay that you are used to.

You would want Bohyme or Remy and you would want to order somewhere other than ebay.  check out the links to www.hairextensions101.com  Sherrie, is on this site and  www.shrinkies.net  Amm also on this site.  Both great sellers.   You really spend a lot risking hair with vendors you do not know, look around this site and you will see top ones ranked but there are a lot of really bad sellers on ebay and the internet.

Hi Natalee!
I use Bohyme silky straight hair, handtied. The quality is amazing, and even though it is a bit pricey at first, believe me it's worth it!
I wear blonde colors like 24, 14B and 16.
Bohyme 613 is supposed to be really nice, that is what Sherrie wears most of the time...
I buy my handtied individual wefts from her : www.hairextensions101.com
if you're looking to mix colors, that is definitely your best option!
Good luck

I have no idea what GHD means but I can tell you that after almost three month of daily washing+blowdrying+straight ironing my hair looks still great!!!

do you use the spray oil with it to proect it?
 
if you but good hair the iron wont affect it...

I got my bohyme silky straight from Sherrie's site. I've been wearing it for a while now and it is still the same as when I first bought it.

Id def. recommend the Bohyme hair for blonde. Blonde is a very difficult color to get good quality that hasnt been processed to death. Its the only blonde hair I have found that is reasonably priced and will last awhile.
