Hello Ladies...First of I would like to say that I bow down to all you DIYers...you are truely amazing with your constant new posts and new pics...it is so incredible for a newbie like me to see that...so THANKS!!
I have been snooping around on your site for quite some time now and have finally decided to join on the fun...
I was on here awhile back and due to some economic issues as well as my fear of destroying my hair, I never actually got around to doing any installs....But now I have found the courage (and the $ ) as well as a friend who just has a natural talent to do hair, who is willing to help me out with my first install.
I want to use the French Refined, I have seen it on a few of you girls and I must say it looks incredible, plus I think it will be a great match with my hair.
Now here is my final question: what kind of French Refined is good...but not too expensive? Also, I have reddishh auburn hair which is typically pretty hard to match...would I be able to dye the extensions?
Thanks in advance girls!

well your timing is impeccable :) i just installed Bohyme french refined this past weekend, my pic is posted here: http://hairextensions101.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1619 - http://hairextensions101.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1619 if your hair color is hard to match, one of the good points about sherrie's store is that you can buy several shades of auburn to get a perfect match (i have to have more than 3 shades for my own hi/lowlighted hair......and YAY for you for finally taking the leap! |

Thanks Nursie! Well I must be lucky!!! I have a question though, is the French Refined typically so curly? I saw it on other girls and it did not look as kinky. ------------- "Measure life by not how many breaths you take in a moment but by how many moments take your breath away." |

i dont think it is typically supposed to be this curly, thats what prompted me to post the pic....i had a pack of this hair a year ago installed and it really became a lazy wave, like a spiral perm several months old...this one looks like a NEW spiral perm and its kinda driving me crazy!! i do love the curls but gee whiz i wasnt expecting it to not loosen up
i do remember one girl that posted pics of two pack of french refined she bought and held them up to each other and they really looked like two different textures....i guess maybe it cant be completely controlled how tight the curl will turn out? |
