I'm counting on you guys! I seen that there are a lot of people that are confident about yourhairshop.com, so I ordered the D-LUX Silky Straight Keratin U-Tip Human Hair -- #6 in 22 inch length.
Was it a good choice? Anyone experienced problems with this hair? They say that it has been shedding, but are including extra tips!
My set that I have in now has shed so much! It was on a weft, and she cut it then used the keratin sticks. Does pretip mean better hair?
Hope this works! If it does, I will post pics!

I loved the D-LUX, I did have lots of shedding, I think whatever the glue was broke down under my microlinks, and it started really bad shedding.
Other than that, it was really good hair, it held up well to a LOT of abuse! I loved the way it held curl, and even dried naturally with some nice texture! I think you will love the hair. Since you got the U-tips are you going to do fusion for the install?? I found if you re-melt the tips, it totally helps with the shedding, so if you do fusion, it might help out with the shedding. |

Naked Eye: I did buy a fusion gun, and was planning on doing the install myself using the "purger" as I have heard it referred to.
The extensions I have had shed so bad, I thought my outside cats have more hair than me left even in the summer time LOL

Hello! Did you order the New (clear) or the Older U-Tips? The newer ones are supposed to have less of a shedding issue. If you did get the Older U-tips, please note that yourhairshop does give instructions on how to deal with the older tips to help prevent some of the shedding. There is info on the yourhairshop.com site about this... SO if you would ike to futher prevent shedding issues, check out that info..... The DLux is very nice hair, IMO. should last you well and it curls very well. Hope it works well for you! Good luck with the install.... xx ------------- |

I did get the older... I got extra keratin U-tips and my fusion wand. Should I work on them before the install. If so, any suggestions?
Also, I got the 22 length, and it had "full set" of 120 pieces, but from what I am reading on here, I should have gotten more. I don't want to look to skimpy, but don't want overload!

Yeah, that's how dlux was for me!  I felt like I was back at my parents house and they have 9 cats and 3 dogs! 
But after I re-heated and re-rolled it was fine. And it is really nice hair! I love it a lot other than that! And the price is great! So if you are doing fusion, I'm sure you will be fine! And if you have extra hair, it's not bad to do some touch ups here and there. Post picture when you get it in! I can't wait to see! |

| Using the same glue that is on the hair, you just reheated that? I think they are sending some extra tips, but not sure! |

I would order 2 sets just to be safe. I have SUPER thick hair and I need about 3 or 4 to cover my entire head.
