OMG I have so many questions and the more I read here, the more I come up with!

What is EP hair??

I scheduled an appt for pinchbraids (hairpolice) and when I told her the hair I normally get is His and Hers cuticle, she said to just get that. Now I'm reading here that the 50% mink is preferred?

And also cuticle hair? Not good for pinchbraids? Because of the folding over and little pieces of hair close to the weft? I don't understand what cuticle hair means, but I know I like it best for my cornrow weaves! But pinchbraiding is new to me....can anyone help clear any of this up?

Thanks!

HC...EP is extensions plus http://www.extensions-plus.com/ - http://www.extensions-plus.com/

I cant speak for the his and hers...as I havent used it. But cuticle hair is where the hair still has the cuticle and they are aligned all in the same direction to prevent tangling. Cuticle hair is fine to use for pinchbraids so long as just the top inch or so is folding over and braided. If you were folding over the entire length then it would be a problem!

Thank you Sherrie215! I'm sorry if some of my questions are silly! So now I am on that website and have to ask...what are people ordering?! I'm guessing I would want the Ready Made Products - Hair SoftWear micro bond? The thread I was reading was ranting that this hair did not have those little pokey hairs near the weft and that sounds good to me!

Hair crazed...You heard right. The Softwear micro wefts have none of those little "pokey" hairs. If you're getting pinchbraids that won't matter. You'll want to order bulk.

Hmmm....this is definately a learning process! Ok, I ordered on the weft and they said they will just cut it off...but I saw the bulk hair on that site too-but after I ordered  I'm sure it will all work out but next time I see I have more options and probably better ones thanks to you guys
