Sherrie you know how you findt he wawa 613 too platinum I also have some AD that is too light and need more a 22. I don’t have any shrinkie materials so do you think if I liquid golded some blended streaks onto the weft as lowlights  ths would work the same as how you shrinkied lowlights on your wawa? I also want to do the sandwich wefts.

kirsty Ive never found the LG to work well to do strand bonding. What about keratin sticks or micro-rings do you have any of those? Those would work equally as well as shrinkies.

what about looping or hanging the lowlights over the weft and liquid golding it on either side to the weft as opposed to gluing it to the hair itself? that way the strands would be sandwiched between the weft and your head as opposed to individual hair strands?

not sure if that would work - but it might keep the weft thin and you wouldn't have to worry about the glue bond pulling off?

i'm actually in the process of shrinkie-ing some hi and lowlights to a weft by doing the loop over the weft and putting the shrinkie over both of the synth strands. it may make the weft bumpy on your head, though.

yeah ccross I did think about that...its just that lg is so thiick I thought that the extra glue might make it bulky. But it would be worth a try...cant hurt to try it!

Yes shrinkies on the weft does make it a little bulkier, but no bulkier that a head full of shrinkies or any other method. I little bulky has never really bothered me, sewn in with a cornrow might be the only way that might be to bulky for me
