Want another weft row - too many?

Okay, I may officially by an "extension addict!"  I had four rows of Russion hand tied wefts installed about 3 months ago and have had them re-positioned and love them!!  When I just wash, condition and air dry my hair has the beach look - when I flat iron it has the nice sleel look.  My own hair is shoulder length, fine and highlighted.  I would love to add a fifth row in the fall, is that too much?  Let me know what you sew-in experts think.  Thanks!!

pictures???!?! 

What's "normal" depends on your desired look.. I wear a full sew in now with a closure. When I wore a partial sew-in I would put in anywhere from 2 to 6 rows depending on the look I was trying to achieve.. So it's entirely up to you as to how many rows you put in..

Again everyone is different.. I have people ask me all the time if the closure is "hot" when I wear it.. I live in the San Fernando valley and it gets hot as HECK here in the summer time.. To tell you the truth, I don't feel any hotter in this full weave and closure than I do just wearing my own natural hair.. One thing that's is true about me and heat is I hate hair on my neck and back when I'm hot.. But that's true whether I'm wearing a weave or not.. I personally think it's the "perception" some folks have about having something on your head making you feel "hotter"..
