Obviously its the way we are treating the hair with the curling irons and such.....
Amm......Exactly ....step by step  what do you do to that hair and it still looks good on the ends?
I like the hair otherwise.....I just can't figure out what I'm doing that causes it to fry the ends and make it itchy to the skin.....maybe my curling iron is too hot......I'm wetting the hair 1st.  Do you spray anything on you thermo..other than water.....before you curl? What size iron are you using? What brand is it....cause if it can keep your thermo in such good shape....I can only imagine that its better for ones own natural hair....whats the brand chic? LOL
Hey I'm willing to buy a new flat iron or curling iron if it means I can stop frying the ends and such.....cause the hair is cheap enough and I like new hair every month anyway......so if I can get 4-5 weeks of good wear....I'll keep ordering this hair.
Heyyyyyy....... Maybe you (Amm ) can make a DVD or how you curl and style this hair and sell it on your site.....with the hair.....just a thought.
I mean you and Sherrie are the hair goddesses oh and Kristen...and....well the list is too long to go through...but some of you gals could put these together cheap enough...don't you think....or better yet......flim it and put it on "my tube" like that girl did.....you know the funny chic putting in extentions....god that was funny....but you gals would be great in it.  
Thanks,
JeepGirl

Wow that looks great AMM, what are you doing with it???   I thought that I tried everything, but I couldnt get it to match the texture of my natural hair, and it seemed to get "piecey" on me.

Amm, your hair is stunning, so shiny, so sexy, the color is amazing too!!!!

That reminds me of the model...forget her name...the brazilian one...with Di Caprio for a while....I am sure you see who I mean, she has that exact same hair color that is so gorgeous

Gorgeous Amm! You must be doing something right, lol. I think the color match is great on you...I guess I just needed something more "ashy." It might have blended better.

Daaaaang! Here's mine after almost a month. This is the install I did at the beginning of October with the extended strands. Still rockin' it! And a biggie close up of the bottom which shows the texture at this point.

I had a very similar experience with the elite thermo, and my natural hair is pretty similar to yours....although it's a little shorter. I didn't keep it in as long, just a couple days, but it just never seemed to blend right. I think it'd be great at just adding thickness if you already had the ideal length, though. The upkeep is too much for me, too.

The thermofiber or wawa is so cheap....you really should try it.
I agree with GSmilie....it is alot of work to get this hair curled....but I have my elite thermo mixed with some jetset human hair.....don't  like the fried ends after several curlings....... but with this hair being mixed, may be why I'm having better luck.... I've gotten my to hold curl better the last two weeks....now I have some Wawa coming so I can try that....I got a month so far out of this hair....I am going to give it another week or two and then switch to the wawa.
Thanks,
JeepGirl

What a shame! I was so ready to try some synthetic hair after reading so many good things. Now I'm really not so sure anymore... .
Thanks for your pictures and everything, Gsmilie!

I found that at first it was way shinner than my natural hair.  But my natural hair is kinda frizzy and fried on the ends, so it seemed like there was quite a bit of contrast.  After I shampoed it a couple of times it seemed to be less shiny, but it still does have shine.  The overall feel of the hair is good, but the ends do tend to get very dry feeling, that is where it is right now.  I am going to take it out tommorrow and put some more Wagman in.  I have found the Indian hair to match my texture better, and it seems to just get softer over time.
 
I think that for clip in's it would work out good.  I would probably wash it a couple of times if you think that it is too shiny for your hair texture.

Sorry it didn't work for ya
How would you say the hair was in terms of shininess compared to your own and compared to Boyhme or Wagman?

thank you so much for your honest review gsmilie! it really helps to see it all in the pics, i know a lot of people love the synth and thermofibers but i agree with you: it takes just a bit more work than im willing to give
