Ok I cant take pictures right now but here is a picture I found online of clips like I use.Stich your thread through the holes around a secure peice of weft. I put Clips on the ends and middle for peices starting at five inches.If your want you can add a drop of glue(nail,latex,hot) over the finished thread to make it extra secure.But the thread hold really good if you weave it through the hole a few times.Hope this helps

yeah i got those clips from sally's. the damn weaving needle i got
doesn't fit through the metal-lined holes tho. (the 2 holes at the
bottom) i just need to see how the thread is woven thru the holes and
around the weft. gah! and on many clip in pics, it looks like 3 wefts are sewn into one.... |

You don't sew through the bottom metal lined holes, just the other holes. It's like sewing on a button. Just make sure you knot off your thread really good. ------------- http://www.Godiva-Hair.com - http://www.Godiva-Hair.com http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com - http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com |

| those dont look like they would stay in - i thought the clip ins used some sort of a snap lock clip that just looks like it would slide in (and straight back out?) |

If you mean mine .Yeah they are snap lock.Just bend at the middle and the fold back in the other direction.They work extremely well.If your not talking to me then forget all that,lol. -------------
