Hi Maui:
I have used the thermo on and off for about two months. It has pros and cons in my opinion.
Pros: Holds curl great if you figure out how to get it to curl
Stays shiny
Dries ultra quickly
doesn't look fake
cheap
Wonderful micro wefts that have enough size to really hang on but
are nondetectable
no beard
Cons: Can get frizzy or tangled ends with average wear although
some will deny this
Kind of has a peculiar way of separating like you need to
run a brush through it to neaten it up a bit
Not a very large selection of blonde colors
Just my opinions sorry to offend but these are my thoughts

Pros: Inexpensive Hygienic Can be bone straight or curly (curl while damp and then clip the curl until it cools down all the way) Shiny Durable Cons: Colors are a bit different than the standard- they run darker IMHO Separates oddly from time to time, just brush to reset ------------- Current install: European Naturals in colors #12, #613 and #22 with Keratin Fusion Wefted Application 12oz total! http://www.Beebeebee.etsy.com - http://www.Beebeebee.etsy.com |

Oh thanx ! I wrote this question before I reall went thru and read 100 of the 180 or so pages of this forum!  Suffice to say that this question has been asked before! LOL Thanks for not ripping my head off like some other forums do!  Just another reason why this forum is great! But back to the topic . . . I guess for the price it's go'n for I can just go and try it for my self huh? I was gonna go with F/R from extn.101 for my first DIY instal but with the nerves of just the DIY I rather not add to it by try'n on quality hair that cost me a pretty penny!
and if by any chance amm
 graces us with her expertise on this thread I was wondering on your site you have SILICON K NEW LIFE and NEUTROGENA DAILY DEEP CONDITIONER do you use both and just alternate? or use either or?Also when people say they "steamed" the end to make them like new, what do you use to steam? Maybe this is a way stupid question?

| It's a steam hair setter (like caruso) but running the hair through it instead of placing the curlers on it and brushing. I also find for the plastikhaar dipping the ends in boiling water and brushing immediately removes any frizzies. You would need to do a test with the elite to see if it works. |
