Namaste Dharma and thank you for
asking. I'm glad to give back since I've taken so much information
from this board. I would call the 2nd install a success. You know,
it never fails...I buy something and the next day it goes on sale or
the new and improved or amended product is offered. I followed the
directions in my kit to the T on the first install...heater only on
the wax setting and stirring constantly ...and lost nearly every
single bond. The consistency was much like a keratin adhesive in a
melting pot so I assumed it was ok...I didn't really grasp the
"seeping" concept on the first install. I'm sure the DVD
they are now offering will help.
Here's what I love...the smell.
Keratin is stinky...there's no way around it...this has a really
pleasant scent. I like the way strand-by-strand falls as opposed to
protac wefts; However, to save time and provide thickness I am
wearing wefts in the back and the TT on the sides.
Here's what I'm adjusting to. The
bonds have a tendency to stick together after sleeping on them, but I
like to fiddle with them anyway so I am entertained by separating
them. The instructions specify dipping 1" into the
adhesive...a hard 1" bond isn't that comfortable to me...I'm
making them a little smaller next time and that should help.
I can't comment on the hair that I
ordered with the system. I used my Bohyme for the 2nd install. These bonds definitely need some time before removing easily; However, a little acetone and this stuff turns to powder with no need for pliers.
So after too much information, (aren't
you sorry you asked) I'm keeping my order...(they offered a
refund)...and I'm ordering more little "stars" to put in my
melting pot...on the high setting.
