Hello, I'm am fairly new to the extension world, but am getting really into it and loving it. My mother wants me to do her hair using the shrinkie method but I have some major concerns. First of all her hair is short and she does'nt reaaly want to add length but mainly volume. Her hair is 3-4 inches.
Secondly she has extreme fine hair and some thinning especially around the crown. What I had thought of was putting the shrinkies well way from the thin spots but leave the hair long enough to cover or at least minimize those areas. I haven't used shrinkies yet but I'm thinking that I can cut very small strands and pretip myself and the shrinkie will shrink enough to fit the hair and not be too bulky. Maybe I can put enough small ones to give her the volume she's wanting. I so badly want to do this for her. She's always hated her hair and I think this would make her feel so much better. Any advice and/or opinions would really be apprecited.
Thanks in advance!!
