Sorry for the recent posts, but I have a question for all of you, do you have a company you recommend where I can purchase I-tips/shoelace tips etc, that come in ethnic textures like Yaki, or deep wave etc?
I have no trouble finding these in pre-glued/u-tip form but Im struggling to find these textures in 1-tip for locs/shrinks. Has anyone tried hair laboratories http://www.hairlaboratories.com/hair.htm - http://www.hairlaboratories.com/hair.htm ? They seem to offer Yaki, and some other kind, but I want to make sure that the quality of the hair is decent and does not matt or tangle.
I know a lot you girls buy wefts, or bulk hair and turn them into i-tips , I dont know how you do it, you girls are awesome
 , but unfortunately, thats just not an option for me, so if you can recommend a reliable good supplier, Id appreciate it . |

Hi I didn't see it listed but I think REMYHAIRTODAY.COM still does all textures and pre-tips but I don't know what they charge. Contact Camille at mailto:SALES@REMYHAIRTODAY.COM - SALES@REMYHAIRTODAY.COM .

Wow. Hairlaboratories didn't offer Yaki before..at least not on their website. I would be interested in obtaining a sample to see the quality of their hair. It is difficult to find Yaki hair in I-tips.
I obtained a sample of of the Yaki pre-tips from Sexy Hair for you ( http://www.sexyhairforyou.com - www.sexyhairforyou.com ). I had Shiry (she is on the boards) look at the hair and she liked the texture. It is a little pricey though. ------------- Htowngirl |

Thanks Ladies for all of your advice, especially for the link for Sexy Hair. If Shiry thinks ok, thats good enough for me. As you know the better the hair quality the less hassles with clients. And even though they are a little pricy, if their hair is as good as they claim it to be, then it would be worth it. If anyone else has any referrals please post. Thanks  p.s is the Pre-tip Yaki at Your Hair Shop advertised on their web? I could not find it.  |

Kristin sent me a sample, and it was pretty nice yaki hair. Extension plus can also do I-tipped hair in yaki. You have to request it.
