I'm talking about the clip in pieces by jessica simpson/ken paves for anyone not familiar with them
http://www.hairuwear.com/ - http://www.hairuwear.com/
I was unimpressed when I first heard about these.Sounded just like the revolution and other various peices.But I took a look at the site,and I'm really sold.They are pretty genius.Apparently alot of people are having trouble with the clips breaking(which toupee clips are notorious for anyhow).Thats an easy fix a trip to a BSS could solve.And some people with extra small heads cant seem to wear them.Wont be a problem here
 .I'm curious if anyone else has one or is getting one.I'll definitely come and show it off when I get it. P.S-I'm getting the short curly one. -------------

i have one. bought it tried it on never wore it. my hair is thin so you could see were it attached too much, and it just did not fit right... i was not impressed too. i think they are great for people new to extentions, but if you are used to custom hair extentions for yourself... forget it.... i also bought the short curly one... i never considered my head small but it really did not fit right. i could just be spoiled though from other types of extentions. it really just did not look right or bled.
i am sure if your hair is thinker and longer than mine on top that it would look great. ------------- |

well crap.Others complained about the same things.My hair is neither thick or long.But I had good luck with an easy weave,so I think i might try it out anyhow.ITs either this or a mini lace.I'm in a hair rut.And I'm hoping this will work for me. Besides I'm just looking to pop on and off when I run out. I was gonna make some clip-ins myself,but I have made lots of sets and decided to just buy something this time. -------------

i am sorry longhair dreams... did not want to disappoint you. it may wok for you... how long is your hair? mine is baby fine and light blonde so it showed. if your hair is like your pic and dark it may blend more. i think dark hair usally hides extentions more(my opion) i think if you hair on top was a good 6 inches it would be fine. ------------- |

Longhairdreams,
I had one in the 23" synth wavy before I went back to microbraids (wanted something more permanent). I have med/dark brown hair that is quite thin and it worked fine for just the quick day wear. I think my head is avg. size and I found it to be a little large, but it stayed in and looked good/natural. My daughter took it to college with her and she wears it all the time, in fact she just asked if I'd spring for the new 18" length because she loves it so much. If you buy online, find a site that will give a full refund and not a store credit if you try and don't like.

Yeah,I'm looking for new things.I've given up heat and anything else that might damage my hair.So this definitely seems like something good to try.I do like the idea of being able to return it.To be honest I'm the type to tweak it and make it work.
I read in alot of reviews about people having problems with it being too large.I guess I'll just have to wait and see. -------------

Hey longhairdreams, is there any place local that sells it? Usually they will have one out for you to try on.

Yeah, that would be good if you can return it. I have a feeling you'll like it!!! I want to try one too. I haven't had a chance. Are you getting human hair or synthetic?

The thing they may not tell you about it when you order is that being synth, the curl is baked in so you can't use heat on it. Also, use wig shampoo and conditioner, and a wig brush (looper one for extensions if you have it). Also, hair products will shorten the life it (ie. hairspray, gel, etc.). I hope this helps you stretch your dollar if you decide to try it.

I've owned quite a few "baked in hairstyle" hairpeices and wigs before.I actually like that the style is set.If I like it I'll get the straight style too. -------------
