I havent posted an install over here in ages!
 
This is my newest install that I did last sunday.
 
3.5 ounces of an indian remy hair (handtied) and 2.5 ounces of Jack Sun Skin wefts. Installed with TB tape and LG. The length is 18 inches and color is #613. Sorry about the poor quality pictures, as I have yet to figure out how to take a picture and get the colors true to life!
 
This is at the beginning of the day
 
 
The rest are 9 hours later after getting home from work. The hair holds curl very well.

Wow that is so beautiful. How do you get the curl to hold so well? I am hoping to eventually get a method like great lengths- maybe the wavy type hair they hair. My own natural hair is so fine and doesn't hold a curl well at all. Also- I've never been very good at getting it to curl. I was thinking of trying that "boinking" method I saw on shrinkies.net to give it waviness (since I am not good at curling). Do you think all hair holds that well? Do you have any types? I am not great with a curling iron... but I might get better with practice. I really need someone that is great with hair to live with me and curl it every morning!! LOL.

thank you so much ladies!
 
Hairnewb this hair takes curl very easy and very fast, so its not difficult at all. No tricks to get and keep the curl with this hair.
 
divinediva, yes this is shorter for me! My last couple of installs have been 18 inch rather than my usual 22 inch. Im forcing myself to go a little shorter.....very very hard for a length whore such as myself to do!yes
 
DanaCO, so far I like the Jack Sun skin wefts, but I will be able to give a better opinion in a few more weeks. Keeping my fingers crossed!
 
Tangles and Poose..thank you . That means alot coming from long time members as yourselves!

Thank you, Sherrie! Definitely keep us updated on the skin wefts. I may go ahead and order some from him too. I will be ready for a new install in about a month. The last time I had something made in China, it took about three weeks to get it, so I better get on it. How fast was his turnaround time?

DanaCo, there is about a 18-21 day processing time on skin wefts or custom orders from Jack Sun. Shipping is super fast which only takes about 3 days. A bunch of us did a group order awhile back to save on shipping, and to meet the minimum order requirements. I think we waited 24 days in all.

Hi Sherrie!  Glad to see you here too!  Looks great!  The blend with the longer bangs looks great!  I love the platium with a hint of gold...took me a while to get to get to that level safely...gosh I wish I was a real blonde! lol  Looks great!
