Finally, you can purchase the WaWa #613 bulk. I have so much left over #27 from the #613/#27 bulk because that WAS the only way to get the #613. Its about time!! I seriously think Im gonna use the WaWa my next install. I really like the idea of being able to curl it and the curl lasts through several washings. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=6786440321&category=60188&tc=photo - http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=67864 40321&category=60188&tc=photo |

Shweeeeeet. WaWa's a pretty darn good deal for a nice, wearable
thermofiber. Wish they'd expand their color line to double-digit blondes. I'd so be wearing it. The Adore Ebonyline is what I use to pretip with shrinkies when I send out the sample strands with the shrinkie instructions. I like that stuff as well. The texture is a little thicker than WaWa. Have you tried that, sherrie? ------------- http://shrinkies.net - Extension Supplies & Virgin Brazilian Hair |

| yes Ive tried it Amm, but I find that the WaWa curls easier. And holds the curl. Ebonyline, the curl will wash out just like human hair. Whereas the Wawa will hold the curl through washing. I like less work! Also I need another blonde to blend for lowlights but cant find it in Ebonyline. |

Sorry Sherrie.....got side tracked as I was about to post.....
Thanks for posting the pics Sherrie 
I was playing around last week with all the WaWa and thought what the heck I might as well make a color ring. I have been trying different glues and stuff for pretipping and the WaWa is so cheap to play around with. I didn't want to use my good remi hair for mucking around... 
Sherrie, I just sit and shuffle that hair like a deck o cards till I see something I like. BLEND,BLEND,BLEND,BLEND!! 1 part of that 3 parts of the other….what ever looks good. I blend exactly the same when blending Prohair. I blend like crazy first, so that the 22" starts getting kinda staggered and lengthening as I blend. I don't try and place the hair precisely back on top of the other with ends matching as I really want the length to increase to the point were I have almost 34". Then I cut that bundle in half, giving me 16-17" which I use for shorter layers. Then the next bundle I stagger again, then cut in half....usually another color complimentary to the one I just blended. I keep doing this until I have all the layering lengths and colors I want. For the longest length 22" is when you want to be very precise and keep the ends exactly even on both ends. I like to keep the bottom lengths more full on the ends so it doesn’t look to wispy on the bottom. I just hold the bundle dead center and fisted tight. I brush the colors on one side of my fist…then turning the hair around and blending the other side. I keep doing this until I have the color I want. If you fist the hair real tight you won’t lose any length or very little hair. The final result is a nice layering install with no cutting at all afterwards. I think it's much easier that way for a DIYer to not have to worry about putting in layers afterwards. . You can always feather around the frame of the face but very minimal cutting/razoring is needed.
Or if you have WaWa wefts...Kristin posted her technique of cutting off the lengths as she goes giving the same layered razor look. I like the 613/27 mixes the most. I could have blended more colors here but got lazy!!!

Great blending SAS. I have several shades of blonde that Ive blended too. But I never thought of doing the staggering, and 'prelayering' like this. When I blend I always try to keep the lengths even as possible. May have to give your technique a try! |

| It's absolutely ingeneous! I was wondering what you used for the ends there - guitar picks. Brilliant! Well you did a heck of a job. It's the best color ring I've ever seen, really. |

Thanks girls….
I just wanted to remind you…. for anyone interested in the darker colors…the1B and 2 are about the same exact color. My #2 was the only hair that had a “Yaki” texture. All the other colors do say Yaki but they are all Silky really. Only my #2 was a different feel from the rest. The #4 is pretty dark too. It looks almost as dark as a1B on the Bohyeme color ring. |

Hi I am new here, but I have a question about your post. I ordered wa wa hair extension wefts from vixenwigs. I can't seem to get them to curl at all. How do you do it. I used a curling iron, but it didn't phase it. The extensions are straigtht, Were your already wavy then you added curl. Please help, because I can't wear them like this.

use steam to curl them. use WET hair with curling irons, heavily misted damp hair with velvet rollers. you can also, before installing it, wind it around something round, dip into HOT HOT water. the trick is to let the hair cool in a curled pattern. the hair is basically plastic, so the heat "softens" it, then as it cools, it hardens into that shape.

O.K. I will try this. I wonder if the molecular caruso steam rollers would work. I did mist some water on them before the curling iron, but that didn't help. What would I wrap them around? Then do I just let them dry overnight or what??

co-signing with misslou. The key to curling wawa is 1: the hair has to be WET to curl with an iron. More than just a mist. 2:You have to slide the curl off the iron without letting the curl unwind and clip it in the curled position until cool. Or use steam rollers. I used velcro rollers and then steamed the rollers with a hand held clothes steamer and then let them cool. Once you figure out the key to curling it, its easy...and then you dont have to keep curling your hair after washing...the curl will stay in the wawa until you straighten it. ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |

as far as off-the-head-curling goes: anything round that can take HOT (read: steaming hot, almost boiling) will work. plastic curlers, soda cans, any tube shape.

Really, the curl stays through washings??? Also how do you straighten again, if water doesn't straighten, it then I quess you would have to use a straight iron, right???

I curled them tonight. I will let them cool, and see how it looks in the morning. Wow, I couldn't believe it even curled. I am so glad you gals are helping me.

yes, it needs to be straightened with a flatiron. Or I would use my steamer and brush.
It only takes a few minutes for the curls to cool. Like maybe 15-20 minutes. When the curls are cool you can take them out of the clips or rollers. ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |

Sherrie,
This topic was not intentially moved from Hair Extensions to Wigs. It is possible that when we updated the board software and realigned the keywords that it was moved accidentally.
It has been moved back but unforunately some of the images got lost because the links broke in the process. We will try and recover them but can't promise that we can recover them.
Our apologies. ------------- That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger or drives you totally insane. :-) |

Unfortunately when we moved the thread back the links broke and we have not been able to restore them. We are trying but no promises.
My apologies.
