So I had ordered from both companies in the 613. My intention
was hair for PB highlights, in addition to having hair light enough to color with Manic Panic. I didn't want to spend a fortune on it, but I wanted semi-decent HH. The Glamour Hair was the SilkyStraight Euro Remi, 22 inch length. The hair is absolutely gorgeous, actually a much better quality than I expected so I felt it was a shame to color it blue and green!! It is very fine textured and so shiny it almost looks like synth, and quite blonde but in my opinion probably not a true 613, maybe somewhere between the 22 and 613. I then ordered the H& H's Bodywave/weft in the same color, 26-28 inch length. It is lighter in color than the Glamour but definitely more gold. The texture of course is no comparison. Granted, I wasn't expecting the ponytail of a Nordic Princess, but this was the worst batch I have ever received from H & H's (and I have ordered a LOT of hair over the years, both cuticle and non) It was SO snarly (and gold) that I actually had to wash it with Shimmerlights to tone it down, and then leave Conditioning balm on it to even run my fingers through it!!! Needless to say, I will not feel the least bit "guilty" about coloring THIS hair atomic blue and spring green! ------------- 2C-Fine-Normal, 23 inches wavy Base of ponytail circumference: 4 inches Goal: BSL, Approximately 2 to 3 inches from current length |

I'm glad to hear the Glamourhair is nice; it's really too bad about the
H&H Cuticle, though. I had an amazing batch of cuticle hair from
them, but it was black and this was a while ago now. AMM actually had a
bad batch from Glamourhair recently and some really shoddy customer
service. I have to say, I really feel like the options for
HH--especially for the blondes--is dwindling down to Extensions-Plus
and Bohyme.... I would be a bit concerned about the manic panic fading and/or bleeding, but I assume you've done this before. :) |

Yes, I actually will have to remove the colored PB's before my
next wash. I am fairly decent at putting temporary ones in though, so I can always reinstall the fun colors for a weekend. It is the blonde highlights I am more concerned about staying put. And I should have added in my first post that the hair I ordered was not the Cuticle, I did not want to have to pay that much for hair that was being used for my purposes. ( if I were getting a full head it would be a different story.) I honestly believe that the cuticle hair can get even more tangly than the normal. However, my old stylist had ordered the most GORGEOUS batch of Cuticle hair from H & H, it was only 18-20 inches but it was absolutely the best shade of white blonde I have ever seen to this day in HH. It was amazingly silky and luxurious, I actually would have strangers commenting on the color of "my hair"  ------------- 2C-Fine-Normal, 23 inches wavy Base of ponytail circumference: 4 inches Goal: BSL, Approximately 2 to 3 inches from current length |

Just want to add that the H & H hair actually looks like a much
better tone now that I washed it with Shimmerlights. It also is not nearly as snarly/tangly, but it still feels like a horse's tail.  ------------- 2C-Fine-Normal, 23 inches wavy Base of ponytail circumference: 4 inches Goal: BSL, Approximately 2 to 3 inches from current length |

| Oh, you ordered the H&H regular weaving hair? That always receives bad reviews. I don't like the Italian Minx either, but some people seem to do well with it. :) |

Somewhere in the world, a ranchhand is very angry over the disappearance of his prized Palomino's tail. Hmmm......so is this where H & H gets their regular weaving hair? I have 26-28 inches of H & H Bodywave on the weft if anyone is interested in purchasing for a very reduced price. The weft is completely intact but I did wash and condition it, so right now it looks almost totally straight. ------------- 2C-Fine-Normal, 23 inches wavy Base of ponytail circumference: 4 inches Goal: BSL, Approximately 2 to 3 inches from current length |

Never had a problem with GH's silky straight. I have the color ring if you need some photos. ------------- http://shrinkies.net - Extension Supplies & Virgin Brazilian Hair |

Amm- The hair from Glamour Hair is gorgeous, truly beautiful. It is the hair from H & H I am referring to. Of course, this is my fault since I did not order the best quality I could have, but for $100 I kinda expected slightly better quality than I received. ------------- 2C-Fine-Normal, 23 inches wavy Base of ponytail circumference: 4 inches Goal: BSL, Approximately 2 to 3 inches from current length |

I have the H&H 26-28 bodywave hair as well. Never worn it. Never wanted to.
I had a few bags of the H&H cuticle brought out to me when I went to the H&H store last week. Didn't impress me at all for $300 a bag. ------------- http://shrinkies.net - Extension Supplies & Virgin Brazilian Hair |
