Record on the Russian?

That would suck. Im already in debt now due to doing GL and then Hairlocs back to back like a mad woman. One good thing is I LOVE the weave thing and that is so much more cost efficient. Yes i will say it! WEAVES are great! heheh

And wouldnt it be funny if the "Russian" all this time was genetically engineered in some lab with super squirrels? That would explain the price tag at least hahah

Hello Krimsa! Could you tell me what hairextensions do you exactly have? From where you did buy them. You can answer me on private and sorry about my bad english

MsHoney I would like to know also where to get actual virgin Indian. If I could find it and know for certain it was unprocessed Indian, I would definitely give it a shot as a layer in this weave. When i wore Indian, I liked it for about a month and then it went to hell. Thats all im saying so the virgin has to be found somewhere.

Thank you too, MsHoney

Hey Malibu. I'm not sure but I THINK some girls on BHM had some problems with them but I may be getting them mixed up with someone else. Check there. Have you searched here? The name sounds familiar.

Im stuck with that bill on plastic now! lol. I am just happy I found something that worked for me personally. Im not saying no way to Indian or Asian hair ever again also. What i was thinking i might even do at some point is maybe one weft of really nice virgin Indian if i could get my hands on some and then 2 wefts of Russian on the top levels. My thinking on that is the Indian would give it slightly more body underneath and then have the Russian layers up top. I dunno. maybe at some point.

It's always good when you find hair that works for you!

Not true at all.. Remember that there are more than just caucasian women wearing Indian hair. A quick look around BHM will confirm that for you.. I can tell you FIRST hand that women with Afro textured hair are NOT looking for Caucasian textured hair..

I said I had concluded that as I could NOT find it unprocessed. Every hair extension system I tried was using processed Indian or Asian hair. When i say processed I mean they were doing something to it. I was told its called an acid bath that strips the cuticle layer and then they use a silicone coating to replace shine and sheen. This made sense because it looked nice at first and then started to matt and tangle and this was because the silicone washes off. This was ALL I was able to find in the way of Indian hair so I became frustrated and didnt want to keep spending money on it, especially when it didnt totally match me and didnt hold up. I dont have money for that. This is all based on MY own years of wearing extensions. Its only recently that I have learned about virgin Russian hair and I read about it on the hair 101 on this site in fact.

Okay and so...whats the problem? Indian hair is Indian hair Russian hair is Russian hair. I dont even care. The word I care about is the virgin part. I dont care if the donor has had sex or not lol sorry. i mean I just want hair that was grown and cut. It could have come from a 3 eyed purple person from jupiter really.
