i have to apply a hair dryer to my hair because its frizzy/curly. i made the pretips to big and some of them stick out from the top and i dont know if they are sliding around. if thats possible. so should i take them out and pretip them again or buy more hair or try micro rings.

 

i just cant get to my scalp to dry my hair straight. how far down should they be from the scalp?

please help

By too big, do you mean the diameter? If the tips are too thick for
shrinkies, they won't fit into a microring. If you mean they're too
long, you'll have to snip them back so they're shorter.

Tips should never stick out from the top - your brush will catch on
that and bend your hair strand sideways or backwards when you're
brushing your hair. I know if I get one like that, the Fiddle Factor is
tenfold and I play with that strand constantly until I eventually work it
out.

Shrinkies, like microrings, should have a little wiggle room between
the bond and your scalp. Your head will be unbearably sore if they're
too tight.

I don't understand the "can't dry my hair straight" comment. Are you
saying you think it's because of an application problem or a problem
with the hair you're using.
