Can someone tell me their experience with bonding human hair to their heads?

What are the different type of ways to go about doing this?

Can I do it myself?

About how much does it cost to get it done at a salon?

I was thinking about getting it done myself.

My hair is a little less than shoulder length.

I would not suggest gettng weave bonded.  The glue breaks your hair off.  If you are to get weave, you should get them sewn in.

well actually, bonding is not using glue. its a heating process that uses a special tool to bond hair to the ends of your hair. i hear it is used a lot in hollywood for ppl like jessica simpson or jennifer aniston,yeah they are all jumping on the weave bandwagon!!! althought i were a weave, i do get sewn in and have never tried bonding. its more expensive and it does seem like it may break the ends of yur hair.
 
but there is a new style of weaving called the malasian style, ever heard of it?? well i dont really understand how it works but it uses a sinlge thread to attach hair to yur own hair, without using heat, glue, or braiding. now that sounds like a winner!Clap

Yeah I feel like anything you bond will break your hair off. 
 
Taggi, I never heard of the malasian style.  Sounds nice though, I'm going to look into that.

Weave Styles

Malaysian  style

The Malaysian style involves the formation of a single thread at your scalp to form the base. Rows of wefts are then attached evenly throughout the scalp. One good thing about this technique is that it does not use any braids, glue or resin. In addition, pressure on the scalp is evenly distributed so there is full integration between your hair and the weave.

The Malaysian style produces a flat, "natural," smooth look. It also allows your hair and scalp to breathe and can be shampooed, conditioned and styled as you normally would. Because the weave is anchored so well, you don't have to be as delicate in styling as with other methods because it's harder to pull out the weave. The Malaysian works best on hair that is relaxed or pressed straight. For those into natural stylings, the Malaysian can be used to supplement afro weaves.

This style doesn't take as much time as some of the others so you don't have to plan your week around getting it done. The Malaysian takes about three hours to complete.
