Hey ladies,

I'm a newbie here and I have taken alot of advice and appreciate all the info and photos you ladies provide.

I ordered some bohyme hair and black shrinkies( I have jet black hair) and am preparing to do them myself.  I currently have fusion in my hair now and two self made clip on extensions at the top to hide the fusion.

My question is this: Which is the best method for around the hairline? Shrinkies, fusion, or metal linkies.  My goal is for it to be well hidden.  My hair is rather thin and I'm worried it wont cover the extensions without the clip-on wefts so I'm looking for the best method for right at the hairline and/or part down the middle.

oh great..Im glad it can be used for the hairline because i really wanted to stick to only one method.  I am practicing with the shrinkies on my wig first to make sure I get the hang of it.

And also I'm really tall so no aerial shot for anyone..

my email address is mica4_u@yahoo.com

I used shrinkies on most of my install, but they looked bulky, and felt bulky to my client around her face, so I did small fusion strands there. They seemed to lay flatter and less noticable.
