Same color chart and same color ring as the Dlux. The colors of the hair for sale are the same as what was listed with the Dlux. Honestly, to me, it looks like Dlux with a printed paper wrapper on the front.
Apparently 'Tease' is a better quality of hair. From speaking by email with Kristin back in January she said that she was putting all the d-lux on sale to make room for the new hair.I personally liked the d-lux becuase of the good value for money and never really had problems with this hair. I always bought the I-tip hair which I coated with nail glue as reccommended. Maybe we should ask for samples to try first

did anyone try the new ones from yourhairshop.com called tease hair extensions????
I have just ordered D-Lux a few weeks ago. So it will be a while before I order again. Nonetheless, I'm very curious about the hair, just to see how the hair compares to the D-Lux.
Again, the price of the Tease product is great!

Prices are very reasonable, hope the hair works out. Im sure Kristen worked hard to find a better alternative to the Dlux. I think the Dlux started out well and then there were some issues with inconsistany, which ultimately made her decide to make changes.
As promised Kristen sent me out samples and i told her my hair color but what she sent was extemely blonde maybe a 613. The hair seems nice and the bonds are smaller than the D-lUX SO I WILL BE PUTTING IN MY HAIR THE 20 PRE-TIPS she sent. I also ordered her color ring thinking maybe the hair colors were different then Bohyme and D-Lux now i find out they are the same. Oh well. Any one needing a comparison when i get the ring in and need to know what color in D-Lux i would be more then happy to help out.
In a way, I don't blame her for starting fresh. Even if this is, in essence, the same HAIR as DLUX, there's nothing wrong with her going for a new look & brand. I am guessing (JUST speculation) that she addressed some of the issues with the hair (i.e shedding bonds, shedding wefts, etc.) and has a product now that is made of the same hair, yet constructed in a way that she feels more confident and comfortable selling; hence the new name. Again, JUST speculation. But If I were in her shoes, that is probably what I would do. She knew there were some issues with the construction of the product; yet virtually none regarding the quality of the hair. So- keep the hair yet have it manufactured in a more solid fashion. That's probably why the color ring is the same. I've always liked DLUX and thought that Kristin and her company have provided a good product & good service. I will look forward to trying her new line- be it the same or not........
I will be installing some blonds on a client on Saturday and some darker colors on another client on Tuesday. If hair is going to go bad, it usually takes a week or two of wear, so I'll report back in a few weeks.
i wore dlux for about 3 months and was impressed with the qulaity of hair. there was an issue with sheding as im sure most people were aware. hopefully this new hair has resolved this.

I had purchased the Dlux back when it was only 25% off. There has been alot more postive than negative regarding the hair's quality. I wasn't concerned with any shedding issue, as I was using the Tiffany Twist. I've used the 8A/14b, 18/22, and some 613 for highlights. I installed it last friday.
After the first shampoo/cond (using Pureology) I realized I didn't care for the 613...the strands were too light for a match to my highlights. When I removed them, the some of the strands were all frazzled....like the texture of a perm gone bad. That was one wash! I've replaced those areas with the 18/22. A total of 3 washings later, I see a bunch of, what I've referred to, as wacked out broomstick warped hair. It's itchy on my skin. I'm trying to use a leave in product for softness, but it's just not helping. This texture is not a match for me. I'm looking forward to replacing it soon with some unprocessed hair, as I've learned that Indian hair processed for texture is not a match for me, and don't want to waste anymore money trying it out.
I am assuming that, as I've read of it happening with vendors, that I just was one that perhaps got a 'bad batch'?? I am jealous of those that have had great success with the longevity of the DLux!!
I have a second bundle of the Dlux, never used, that feels so much more silky than the first batch I used. I will list under the trade/links threads if anyone is interested.....

I think I did get a bad batch of the Dlux. I had ordered a clearance weft (price is right for a friend that just wants to try out extensions for fun and let me practice the Tiffany Twist on her) Well, the weft arrived yesterday, and I must say, silky silky silky! Huge difference from the batch I installed on my head. But then again, we'll see how it goes the first week or two of her washing the weft.
Even tho I have a new pack of the 18/22 leftover that feels silky, I'm still going to try and sell it, as I'm going to tweak down the blonde come fall.

I loved the D-lux too, but I think I got a bad batch but it was only partial. I had ordered many colors and all the super light blonde lasted forever, but a darker brown color which I only ordered 20 pieces of was terrible. It tangled immediately after washing and after two washes you couldn't get a comb through it. I took it out and the hair and the other 100 pieces lasted forever, so I was mostly thrilled with the hair with the exception of the darker brown.
Wearing 22" 8oz Tease I tips installed with silicone microrings.

Have all of you gals bought these bad batches from the same vendor, the same one you're planning on buying the Tease from ?
I know, right? I must admit though, that the latest pretipped fusion hair extension, meaning the ones with the clear glue are not shedding at all which is still the D-lux that she has on sale.
I think it really depends on what batch you are getting, kinda like playing Russian Roulette
Like I said before, I like her price on the pretips since I don't have the time to start pretipping myself. If I find a vendor that beats her price I probably will give it a try.
I'm sure Kristen is not selling bad hair on purpose. It's so hard to know as a vendor (or consumer) if the hair will be good. It always feels silky out of the package. The real test comes after it's installed for a week or two.

Normally I would agree, (y'all shut up) but it seems to me that after several complaints from girls here about the d-lux and who knows how many other customers, that she's dumping the bad hair before everyone stops buying it to cut her losses instead of eating the loss her self.
