I recently bought hand-sewn wefts and had them sewn onto horizontal cornrows.  They look great but I have had a lot of shedding.  I bought them online and the company said they needed to be "reinforced" before they were applied.  Does anyone know what this means?  Thanks to anyone who has time to reply...

that means you either need to sew the track again or put a thin layer of glue along the track to prevent shedding. Youd think the company would reinforce them before selling them, if its necessary. But Ive never used hand sewn wefts so maybe its the norm to need reinforced...Im not sure?

Thanks Sherrie!  Yours look amazing!

The company sent the wefts without any kind of instruction, receipt, or anything - just hair folded in tissue paper.  I'd like to get them fixed since I also thought they should either have done it before shipping or at least have given the information on the web site.  If anyone else knows if this is a standard practice that my stylist should have automatically done, I would love to have your opinion...

The hair is supposed to be raw virgin hair from Siberia and I spent almost $600 for 4 wefts.  It does look great, but I'm a little peeved that they aren't holding up.
