QuoteReplyTopic: Amms virgin indian hair Posted: December 29 2005 at 11:57am
Bought some a while ago and all I can say is wow! Ive worn it as wefts for a while and the other day I pretipped it and installed it as shrinkies. This hair gets better and better. I have very very fine hair (think nordic hair) and this hair is so soft and silky, and has such a beautiful wave/curl. Been wearing it almost constantly and I think Im in love. With human hair! Never would have thought .
If you were afraid of buying it before because of a texture match, seriously, the hair just gets softer and silkier. I give my two thumbs up and now I wanna get that 24" hair Ive been eyeing
P.S. It just doesnt tangle, ever!

Amm's virgin indian hair has so much body that I'm having trouble taming it. I know how to deal with very fine straight hair, but I have no idea what to do with this hair!

Aphrodite - I get a tube of E6000, cut a bit of hair off the weft, apply it and roll. Dries in no time too.
Mon - All Im using for it is tresseme moisturizing shampoo and Pantene conditioner (I use that one for the silicones in it, makes extension hair very silky). As far as the body, Im not doing anything to tame it, I LOVE how thick and full it is. But if you wanna take it down a notch I would recommend putting some mousse in it while your hair is still damp, comb it through and let air dry, and use a silicone product like frizz ease, it'll weigh it down a bit.

You can get it at your local craft/hardware store. Dries clear, waterproof, and doesnt warp under the heat from the shrinkie clamp. Its really thick and sticky, which for me makes it easier to work with, and the bits of glue you get on your fingers, just rub them together and it'll come right off in a little ball that reminds me of rubber cement.

Im about to tear my house up soon to find it though, I have some great pics of my big scary nordic friend in pigtails Im dying to show to his friends...
Either way, if I cant find it today I will find it by this weekend.

Kalika - thanks. I am awaiting my order of this hair from Amm and will be tipping it...I assume the strands will be reusable if the glue doesn't warp...is E6000 better than LG that lots of people use?

LG is a great glue for bonding, but I find it too difficult to pretip with, and some of the glue gets transferred to your own hair under the shrinkie clamp, and the tips get all out of shape once you remove them. with the e6000, the tip is pretty much going to stay the same shape forever, none of the glue will get transferred to your own hair, and you can reuse it with no problem. I used it a lot with my synth hair with no problem. I also pretipped with latex glue, liquid gold glue, and gorilla glue, and my favorite is the e6000. Everyone has their own preferance though, there is no real right or wrong when it comes to pretipping, just make sure that the glue wont melt into your hair unless its MADE for hair.

FYI- E6000 is silicone glue. I wonder if it would be good to "cushion" your hair if you went with metal locs or links, or whatever they are called? Especially if it wont melt or get funky..
I just tried frizz-ease and WOW what a difference! Who knew? It makes the hair absolutely beautiful and soft and shiny. I'm in love with this hair, too.

As promised, here is a photo of me wearing Amm's indian hair, in a soft curl pattern, 16" long. Hair was installed with extended length shrinkies, approx 4 ounces give or take. My own hair is 5" long.
I have slippery hair, regular shrinkies and glue slides out easier then "normal" hair, so the extended length give me a better hold. I hardly ever have them slide out, and in the last 4 weeks Ive only lost one.
