anyone know of any good links that teaches sectioning of hair and amount of rows to do about? im either going to do extendtubes or shrinkies so i dont think it would be much different either way, thanks in advance if anyone knows any!!

This picture from Boogiemama's site shows the rows...it might give you a better idea, at any rate.

LUcky something I was thinking about was not doing the sections even, but alternating them so the lines don't line up. Am I making sense? I think it looks like it is done there too, on that link. Just want to point it out, in case you didn't see it. otherwise, you may see a straight line if the wind blows right.

Thanks for starting this thread though, I have had a few questions about placement.

Also, how small of a section of hair can be used with the shrinkies?I will be likely going right to the part line, and want to make them as small as possible.

Also, shouldn't there be some of your natural hair left out inbetween the rows of extensions?
It is what it is...

You don't need to leave any natural hair in between the rows. If your hair is short, you really wouldn't want to leave much room anyway. Just make sure you start about an inch in from the hairlines and nape. Once you get up to the top part, you'll be able to see if it looks better with some top hair loose or if you need to do it all the way (about 1/4 ro 1/2 inch from) the part. :)

Put a shrinkie and 2 extendtubes in my hair today, one medium one small...all feel good tho i do think im going to do the extendtubes for my first time. Being as since im kinda learning sectioning as i go itll be easier to take out a extentube if i mess up several times *which i probably will ;p* my only concern is that you said you did see some damage with the extendtubes amm..do you think i should be concerned enough not to do them? thanks for all your help with my questions guys! the ph looks so beautiful with my hair *well the few pieces i have in* perfect match!
