| I recently put shrinkies in my niece's hair(2 months ago). The results were great, but she is experiencing a lot of tangling. It first started happening after she washed it the second time. I was wondering what is the best type of hair to use to avoid the tangles and where do I get it from. |

LOL I think were all still searching for the best human hair! Which is partly why many of the ladies here have been switching over to synthetic! Of course opinions will vary from person to person but some of the brands that seem to get consistantly good reviews are Bohyme, Glamour hair, Hisandher cuticle hair, and Extensions-plus. There may be some others too but Im not coming up with them right now! ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |

It sounds like you have used standard human hair (which has its cuticle stripped and the roots in all directions) this hair is very cheap and easy acessable but will tangle because the roots are not in the natural growing direction and will frizz because it has possibly been put through an acid bath as part of its process. The best hair you can get is called European Remi hair and comes in all different brands. this hair is alot more expensive and not as accessible. But you wont have any trouble with tangling or as much shedding with this kind of hair.  ------------- SASHAS HAIR SHOP |

Most local beauty supply shops carry standard non-remy hair. You wont find much high quality hair in BSS but Im sure some do carry it. heres a few links to some of the better brands of hair. www.ebonyline.com www.glamourhair.com www.hisandher.com www.extensions-plus.com ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |

Sadyia, Welcome! As Sherrie said, finding good human hair is a challenge--and an expensive one at that! To a certain degree, it's also a crapshoot since the hair can vary from batch to batch and these things are somewhat subjective anyway. Extensions hair does need to be thoroughly brushed, from ends to tips, twice a day--especially if it's quite long. But if you're getting a lot of additional tangling, it's poor-quality hair. Without knowing what color, texture, and length you're looking for, I'd suggest checking out all of the ones Sherrie mentioned: Bohyme: http://ebonyline.com/ - http://ebonyline.com/ Glamourhair Remi at http://glamourhair.com - http://glamourhair.com His and Her Cuticle at http://hisandher.com - http://hisandher.com Extensions Plus at http://extensions-plus.com/ - http://extensions-plus.com/ Hairpiece's 101 and 909 have also gotten some decent reviews: http://Hairpiece.com - http://Hairpiece.com My personal favorite is His and Her Cuticle, but it's quite expensive. People have raved about both Glamourhair and Extensions-Plus. And Bohyme, imo, is more reasonably priced and probably the best value for the money. Good luck! :) ------------- http://www.beautyaddictmag.com - www.beautyaddictmag.com |

| I just went to ebonyline.com and saw some remi yaki for 60 dollars. Is that a good price. Is that a legitimate hair or am I looking at the wrong type? Help...... I'm so confused |

I don't know specifically about the yaki textures, but in general the ebonyline remi hasn't received as good a reviews as the Bohyme. :) ------------- http://www.beautyaddictmag.com - www.beautyaddictmag.com |
