I'm nearing four weeks with this install...it's still going strong. Had some troubles in the beginning with the one's I split. But, now I've learned the fine art of 3 day hair...thanks to velcro's, a flat iron, and the right shampoo.
Here I am.............

In this pic I'm trying to hold up my shortest layer to give some perspective! Though in that first pic you can see the really short blonde piece, too!

That is really nice, I like mine a similar length and am thinking of doing choppy layers around the front and adding a splash of colour also. So this is lush hair, it looks great, does it hold up and where can you obtain it from.

remi, I'm the Lush Hair person. I'm waiting on the shipment now
that's due in 2 weeks. It held up very well and I was real pleased
with its performance. It is a silky straight that falls into a very loose
texture when air dry and has lots of body. I've got 2 salons here
locally that are completely committed to it.
I have over 95% of the order done in pretips and the rest is wefts
that I was able to squeeze in just 2 days ago to see how they do with
putting this hair on a weft. The tips are done similar to the very very
expensive Extensions Plus tips in that they do not need to be redone
for another application - simply respin them while warm after a take
down and they're ready to reapply again.
If one typically uses 6-8 oz for an install, Lush hair is about 4 oz for a
full install, imo.

I'd second that. You definitely only need 4oz, its really really big hair. And those tips came out as they went in, absolutely brilliant in my opinion! x

I can't wait to see the colors your getting. I never know what I will need because you don't know who will walk in the door. I know it will take a while for you to get a full color range but I'm sure you covered the basics with this order. Any mixes Amm?

OK, ready? About 22 colors or so are coming. Something like that. I have the option of hundreds when the blending is factored in. The selection of graduating colors between blonde and brown is mind-boggling. I got a couple popular blends like 18/22 & 613/27 on the wefts but here's the deal -- since I changed the tip number from 100 up to 200, blending your own is going to be easy. The tips are already set up for pre-blending. Take two colors, tap them under a fusion wand and spin. Instant blending. Or "chunking" or what have you. Blending two colors would take maybe 30 minutes for 6oz I would think.
remi, here's just a few of my install pics of it curled and then straightened --

Thanks for showing that to me amm, it looks beautiful, really thick and full of body. As I am afro carribean though, maybe it would be a bit too silky, how much does 4oz usually cost if you don't mind telling me.

It would be perfect for you chick, its not silky at all, its big hair, it would be far more suitable to you than any of the bohyme textures x

oh my gosh, that's soo beautiful and natural looking (if by natural, i mean that anyone could actually have such gorgeous hair grow out of their own head ) ... i love the color, too. how many inches did you use to achieve this look?
