Thought I'd share a picture of my latest install. It's mostly D-Lux hair, plus some misc pieces I had "in my hair drawer (bin!)" mixed in. 
Some stick, some fusion and I also made a mixed color from dk red & auburn wefts by pretipping w/keratin chips. Hope the link works!

Thank you all so much for the compliments!! I appreciate it and have to give Kristin credit too w/r/t the color. We had a bunch of emails and pictures back & forth to come up w/the best matches.
Erica - I'd say it's probably close to 200 strands. It's difficult to say for sure because I pre-tipped a bunch off the wefts & didn't count those before I started installing.
I have more hair coming so I'm not quite finished. I have to confess, I'm still living in the 80's as far as hair goes...the more/bigger, the better! I do refrain from the sprayed so they don't move bangs, perms, and feathering. Hi, my name is Beth & I'm addicted to big hair...
Oh - I did take the stick hair and make 2 strands 1 before installing those w/shrinkies. My hair is so fine that I need the bulk. Worked out really well.

Thank you! It's jet black underneath and the rest is burgundy, natural burgundy/auburn (D-Lux #35), a mix of med auburn & dark red, and some lighter auburn/copper strands (only about 10 or so of these around my face). Most of what you see in the picture is from the burgundy.It's very rocker-ish w/attitude which I LOVE! So much fun. Everyone's been touching it and commenting how cool the colors are. I put it up in a HUGE high ponytail today so you can really see all of the colors. :)
It's silky straight & I curled it w/a 1" curling iron. The black was 22in but the way I decided to install I cut it to 18in to match the rest. I've only trimmed enough off the ends to shape it a little bit.
