 I think next time I will try protacs.  I am using micro-rings, silicone lined.  Hopefully I get better at this.  I am having trouble around the edges of my hair line.  How do I get my blunt cut hair to blend?  I'mj wondering if I should get some liquid gold and try to bond around the front & top??

Beyond that, I love the lush hair, and the length(20").  I dyed it, and the color is great too....

I tried a few shrink***, and I just can't get the hang of them.  I end up with glue all over the place and a crappy looking bond.

When youre done with your install, razoring around your hairline will help a
lot with belending. My hair never looks any good till I have at it with my
razor, and mine is a pretty blunt cut too.

You razor it yourself?  Wow, bravery!!  I think I had best leave that to the pros!  I wonder if any stylist can do that, or do I need to find a "specialist"??  Will I still have the same blending problem with the protacs I wonder??

Thanks for getting back to me...I was panicing a little

Amanda, make sure you have someone cut it that has experience with cutting extensions. If someone cuts your extensions hair with regular cutting techniques it will end up very blunt and choppy. Really its not that hard to add a few face framing layers, you just need to use a very light hand with the razor!
