| I am desperate here...I am getting all of my hair braided tomorrow and extensions sewn in. My dilemma is this...my natural color is very dark brown and the extensions are a sandy blond highlight mix, drastic, I know, but better than bleaching my own hair an risk ruining it. Anyway, I want to have a part in my hair as not to make it so fake looking. as far as I know there is NO WAY to do this since showing my scalp would mean showing my own hair color. Any suggestions please?! Even if its a not so conventional way of getting around this I am definitely open to suggestions...Is there a such thing as a skin top piece similar to what is placed on wigs to make a natural skin part?where can I get this? |

Yes there are what they called 'closure' pieces to make a fake part line in weaves. I have bought them them http://www.hisandher.com - www.hisandher.com before. Do a google search on weave closures, and I'm sure you'll get a lot of places that carry them. If your getting your hair done tomorrow, you'll need to have one overnighted to you. Show us pictures of the final result! ------------- http://www.Godiva-Hair.com - http://www.Godiva-Hair.com http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com - http://www.MetamorphosisHairDesign.com |

Here's my prospect list for closures... http://www.luxurylocs.net/Default.aspx?tabid=500575&ctl=CatalogItemDetails&mid=517783&CatalogItemID=5412&MasterCategoryID=276&SubCategoryID=899&pagenumber=0 - Luxury Locs Magic Topper http://weavemasters.easystorecreator.com/Browse_Item_Details.asp/Item_Id/48/categ_id/13/parent_ids/1/Name/Lace-Base_Closure - - London - Hair - Company - Lace Base Closure
http://www.luxehair.com/store/WsDefault.asp?Cat=LaceFrontFrontalClosure - Luxe - Hair - Lace Frontal Closure
http://www.hairfanaticonline.com/wst_page9.html - - Hair Fanatic Closure
You don't need a full 8 oz of hair when you use these closures for a full weave.. The Luxury Locs & Hair Fanatic closures can be custom made to order, and since I now have this higlighted EP hair, I might need a closure to match..  All of these closure are expected to last 3-5 years with proper care.. And all of these vendor offer repair service for pretty reasonable prices..------------- Check out the 5th So Cal offline luncheon??

I just cut the top out of wigs. For some reason its cheaper, and you can get it as long/wide as you need.
Edit: thats when I do wear closure peices, which isnt too often.
