Hi again

I feel like im spamming your board with all the questions i have lol
just dont want to make the same expensive mistake i made last month [:
s]

Is there anyone on this board that knows anyone who creates wefts or
does single strand tips from bulk hair? Preferably a professional or
someone who has had alot of experience with this.

Many thanks
Hayley :)

Creating wefts no, pretipping bulk hair & wefts yes. What's your question (s) ?

Hi neosoulsenhora :)

Thanks for your reply!

Im looking at buying some bulk hair-pretty much as it would be cut
straight off the head (not hand tied). Id like to know if i could pay
someone to pre-tip the hair for me? (at the moment im looking at using
shrinkies as my install method). I would do it myself but its not cheap hair
and afraid i would ruin it

Do you do tipping as well? or just wefts? Im thinking ill probably go with
single strands (because i wear my hair up alot).

This forum is what made me become a professional pretipper and practice. For bulk hair girl all you need is some liquid gold glue, a blending board, nail glue, and go to your local BSS ( beauty supply store ) to purchase a cheap pack of bulk hair like FreeTress. I wouldn’t mind doing it for you, as I am on bed rest so I do a lot of pretipping hair bulk & weft. Just let me know.

 

Pretip Tutorial:

Blending Board:

http://www.superhairfactory.com/shop/index.php?main_page=pro duct_info&cPath=5_16&products_id=42&zenid=f17da6 6ebb8001fecac524d4e9582786

 
Now you can also pretip using keratin glue instead of LG using the same technique: http://talk.hairboutique.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=20506 &KW=pre+tipping+hair

 
** The nail glue is used once you have completed making the tips & cut off the top of the tip like Gina did in the last link. You then add nail glue at the top of the hair extension tip to reinforce the bonding to help prevent shedding

No problem 222chik222, It's nothing serious just the good and the bad of a women's body who's 8 months pregnant & already carrying a 5lb baby!
