I just installed this yesterday. I was so nice when I got it, smooth and silky. Then I washed the top of my head.  I brushed it and even put some straightening balm in. Maybe it's supposed to look like this? ( I am so used to super straight synthetic hair!) Anyways, it about 7-8oz with #1b ~ #2 and a little #4 in 18". Oh, and the shedding. I decided to re-tip all 400 strands I bought, they weighed about.4-.5 grams each and I like each pre-tip to be about 1g, and I did notice shedding while I was re-tipping the hair, not a TON. but enough to mention it. It seems fine now :) ------------- ^..^ |

It looks like it has a little bit of natural wave. You will probably need to flat iron it if you want it bone straight. ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |

Did you blow dry it from straight chick. I still think it looks nice and natural on you. Does it still feel silky x ------------- [URL=http://www.hairextensionsbyamanda.co.uk]www.hairextensionsbyamanda.co.uk[/URL] |

It feels alot better now that its fully dry, it also looks more full, and wavy ( , I really want bone stright) It feels silky, and it doesn't tangle.I re-tipped by using a fushion iron I bought off ebay, I just melted 2 tips together. I put nail glue on a few I didn't tip, but since my micro-rings are 4.00mm they are sliding out. And I made my husband do most of the back, and I also had a hand mirror hanging from my shower curtain. It really seems like nice hair. But does super straight hair even exist??? Maybe Bohyme? I don't want it to wave at all! Even better if it can't hold a curl! I'm sure curling this will be easy! ------------- ^..^ |

Bohyme silky straight is about as straight as it gets. Its super staright if I blowdry it. But airdried it will have a tiny bit of wave. But very little.
I think your install looks very good. And if you decide to wear it with curl the Dlux does curl really well.
I am in the middle of my Dlux install right now! ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |

Silicone micro-rings  Fushion is soooooooo not for me. The ring thing is just easy to install and remove! ------------- ^..^ |
