| Does any one know if there is anything to use to prevent the tips from shedding? I ordered pre-tipped hair from Rk and I really like it for myself, but I lost alot of hair from the tips shedding. I was thinking of coating them with something before putting them back in. Nail glue or latex? Do you think it will work?? |

I have never had a problem with pre tips sheding. How were they installed? I think RK has both keritn tip and silicone. The only thing I can think happened is if you ordered silicone and tryed to install that with shrinkiethingy. That would cause sheding and would not hold at all. ------------- |

| I ordered the keratin tip and I used the silicone micro rings. For the first two weeks I just kept getting a brush full of hair loose hair ...not tips coming out of the rings. I really like the hair but I did loose like 20% of the fullness from shedding. I have a tester who is willing to try the blonde colors to test the quality of the lighter shades. But I just don't want the shedding. |

In that case I would order bulk and tip it your self because that shouldn't happen. I have used #4 Rk and once it was conditioned it was great. no one had any luck with the blond though. I wouldn't bother with that. I would maybe try d-lux once she has it in. or eaven hairpeice 909. Of course extensions plus ez tips are great! and if you have traing from another strand by strand and can faz a copy to them short2long has good hair too. ------------- |

Brush nail glue over the tip and it should work a lot better. ------------- http://www.Godiva-Hair.com - http://www.Godiva-Hair.com http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com - http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com |

Thanks for your input. I have #4 from rk in now and I do like it alot. I also order from Ep and I have 6oz of bulk coming that I have to tip I want to try D-lux I'm just waiting for Yourhairshop to get it in. Thanks again! |
but I was looking for an alternative for hair that is 22" in the blondes and pretipped, that isn't in that price range
.But still is good quality. (For my frugal Cheap friends who want good hair but don't want to pay for it)

I have never ever seen such perfect tips as the ez tips, I could see them outlasting the hair they are that good, I'd love to know what they are made from x ------------- [URL=http://www.hairextensionsbyamanda.co.uk]www.hairextensionsbyamanda.co.uk[/URL] |

Im sure Kristin said she has both tips in stock but doesnt have the I tips listed on her website, you just have to request them when you are ordering. x ------------- |
