I just installed this yesterday.
I was so nice when I got it, smooth and silky.
Then I washed the top of my head.

I brushed it and even put some straightening balm in.
Maybe it's supposed to look like this? ( I am so used to super straight synthetic hair!)
Anyways, it about 7-8oz with #1b ~ #2 and a little #4 in 18".


Oh, and the shedding.
I decided to re-tip all 400 strands I bought, they weighed about.4-.5 grams each and I like each pre-tip to be about 1g, and I did notice shedding while I was re-tipping the hair, not a TON. but enough to mention it.
It seems fine now :)

It looks like it has a little bit of natural wave. You will probably need to flat iron it if you want it bone straight.

Did you blow dry it from straight chick.  I still think it looks nice and natural on you.  Does it still feel silky x

It feels alot better now that its fully dry, it also looks more full, and wavy (Cry, I really want bone stright) It feels silky, and it doesn't tangle.


I re-tipped by using a fushion iron I bought off ebay, I just melted 2 tips together.
 I put nail glue on a few I didn't tip, but since my micro-rings are 4.00mm they are sliding out. And I made my husband do most of the back, and I also had a hand mirror hanging from my shower curtain.
It really seems like nice hair.
But does super straight hair even exist???
Maybe Bohyme? I don't want it to wave at all! Even better if it can't hold a curl!
I'm sure curling this will be easy!

Bohyme silky straight is about as straight as it gets. Its super staright if I blowdry it. But airdried it will have a tiny bit of wave. But very little.
 
I think your install looks very good. And if you decide to wear it with curl the Dlux does curl really well.
 
I am in the middle of my Dlux install right now!

Well then next time it's www.hairextensions101.com for me, and I'll just tip with hair myself (unless you sell it tipped?)!
Good luck with your install! Big%20smile

Silicone micro-rings Smile
Fushion is soooooooo not for me.
The ring thing is just easy to install and remove!
