Don't feel deflated chick just cos someone asks you if you have extensions, it doesn't necessarily mean they look bad or detectable its usually because they are such nice and natural hair usually isn't that nice LOL xx ------------- [URL=http://www.hairextensionsbyamanda.co.uk]www.hairextensionsbyamanda.co.uk[/URL] |

I agree with Amanda....don't let it get to you. She probubly only asked coz she was jelous her hair wasn't as long and natural looking. x ------------- It doesn't have to be natural to be fabulous!!!/ |

ooooowee, I like it, I like it. I love to see the back, but from the front it looks cool! I think people might assume someone has extensions because it's super long, but it's not necessarily beacause the hair itself looks fake.

 I think that looks really nice chick, have you used two colours, it looks two toned slightly. I'd just put a few layers in the front starting from just underneath yours chick, that's all it needs, but apart from that its gorgeous x------------- [URL=http://www.hairextensionsbyamanda.co.uk]www.hairextensionsbyamanda.co.uk[/URL] |

Oh to be seventeen again I agree with Amanda some layers front and back too would make a world of diferance. Maybe a few shrinkys in the back underneeth in your darker color would look nice and blend those short ones away.

It looks very very pretty!! You look like a doll. Maybe a little layering, but the colors are perfect and the length looks great.
Oh are you concerned about that short bit at the bottom of your ears/at your neck? Mine does that too. Marie's idea of some shrinkies in there to blend that part in with the rest of the long hair is a great suggestion. (i'm gonna do the same! thanks!) You look darling, Kirsty. You did a great job. |

Looks fantastic to me. I would kill for that hair. *Sigh* I think they asked you if it was extensions because it looks so friggin' good. (Real hair rarely, if ever, looks that long and lush.) So take it as a compliment, and wear it with pride!!! xoxox |

aw thanks guys! its just i ran out of hair i used a full bag of bohym and ill need to get some more is that normal? ye marie bit at my neck i think i just need a wee bit there towards my neck. its also quite annoying cos my hair is short at top but its down my back underneath - but i didnt wanna get all my hair dyed. and sometimes the darker colours pock thru. maybe next time it would be better to do a darker colour even just for one row. i dont have any shrinkies but ciuld maybe try micro links? but i did take the wefts up quite high is that ok? does any1 know where shell is she was means to get me some bohyme butshes disappeared so u think th colour is ok?.. i think my hair is awee bit darker but when the wefts are higher up you dont notice so bad, i think it would be difficult to get a better match on a weft without doing blending!
oh and how many micro links do you think il need iv hardly got any left? |

I think what ever you have eaven if its just 10. Just some dark at the botom will look nice. Yes your micro links will work just fine. If you cant get the hair in that color you could snip a bit from the weft thats in and color it dark and tip it. Quick fix |

LOL! Daintier, prettier, and with far fewer miles. Putting the wefts high up is a great way to minimize the shorter hair (as you found out)- there is no 'rule' about where to place your wefts, really. Do what works best for your head and experimenting like you have is the best way to find out. From your pictures, I think your install looks fab - colors, length, everything. Really great job especially for your first time! |

| I think you did an excellent job on your install. Id just add some individuals around the face near the hair line. Then lightly razor in some face framing layers to blend and close the gap between your natural hair length and extension length. Sometimes the only layering I do is just around the face. |
