My hair (naturally curly) is REALLY dead on the ends from bleaching, dying, straightening (my old iron killed it, now I have a CHI turbo!) etc and needs at least a few inches cut off. I was thinking of getting it cut to my shoulders and then getting extensions put in. Right now there's way to many layers from breakage and such. :( Suggestions? I'm short on funds so I was thinking of just trying something cheap for now. I was looking at: http://www.sallybeauty.com/shop/2430/123160 - http://www.sallybeauty.com/shop/2430/123160 those on Sally's. Probablly in Off Black w/mix of Auburn and Light Brown, since my hair is naturally black, but coloured an auburn colour w/ dark roots. I was thinking about getting them braided in. How many tracks would I need for a full head? Here's some pictures of my real hair currentlly. *pardon the pj's and no makeup*

you would probably need about 3 or four tracks. be careful who you have braid it and make sure it is not so tight it breaks off. oh and welcome to our lil community ps before you do anything i would do a few deep conditioning treatments

Thank you. I've been using a Queen Helen conditioning mask on it but not very often since blowdrying my hair too much kills it.

Hmm are going to weave it in? or are you going to pinchbraiding, i think maby pinchbraids would be better if you have damaged hair...^^ Good Luck ------------- 12 Inch Wawa, Installed with Protac, i love hair extensions<3
