How to match your hair texture w/ extentions

sarahelizabeth3 wrote: Hello Again. Thanks you for all your time in helping me. I got some new hair. it worked wonderful and looked amazing for the first week. now I'm on week 2 and its starting to get really nappy feeling and I'm always brushing it. I was reading on a few posts that when u buy hair they have a type of silicone on them. Is that the reason why they feel so good at first until you wash them. Can you buy the silicone and just re-apply it on the extensions? I straighten my hair everyday and i also straighten my extensions to make everything blend a little better. Is this the reason that my hair isn't holding up. Can you buy hair that doesn't go through the chemical proses?

Not all hair is silicone coated.. You do tend to find silicone coatings applied most often to over processed cuticle stripped hair. The silicone gives the hair a cosmetically appealing look to it in the package. However, once the silicone coating wears off, the hair's true nature begins to show, and snarling and tangling will ensue.. It's really true in the extensions game that sometimes you really do get what you pay for. The general rule of thumb for me is to stay away from most brands sold at the local BSS. Look for better quality hair. The ladies here have given you some excellent vendor recommendations. I'll add three more to your recommended vendor list:

Extensions Plus
Wagman Primus
Giovanni & Sons

The website in my siggy has all of the vendor contact information for these vendors and others.. HTH
