I'm gonna get a sew-in done with Outre Batik hair & I was wonderin' how much heat can be used with it, if at all...I've heard that some heat can be used, but not too sure. I'm wondering because I kno tha girl I go to, uses heat, least she did when she did my 1st eva install with human hair I believe, can't for tha life of me rememba tha name (but I loved tha hair so that sucks)..I know she knows what shes doin' but I'm jus curious about tha hair & heat in general.
Any & all comments about this hair in general are greatly appreciated. TIA
(I put this in this section thinkin' I'd get a betta response vs. otha threads...)

You might want to be careful because one of my clients had brought that synthetic hair that can be curled and girl it was . You have to use water on the hair first and then curl it to control the heat. I did not like.------------- Public.fotki.com/1marilyn1 (Check out my work) |

I know this reply is mad late, but I ended up not using that hair, I still did synthetic and wore Kanubia Free Wave, which I loved and matched my own hair, and I had it in over 1 month. It stayed soft, shed very lil..easy to manage n maintain, loved how tha hair looks when wet, my stylist was even surprised with how the hair looked n felt after I told her it was synthetic. ------------- |

Do you have a picture?
I wore a synthetic weave a few times. The last time, that weaved made my scalp itch so bad, people thought I caught the Holy Ghost in church. I was sitting there slapping myself in the head, eventually and literally, I ran out had to go home to take that junk out! ------------- Natural BC May 9, 2004 |

 - That pic was taken with tha hair in for a month..
Tha only thing that was driving me crazy was tha net my stylist used, it drove my scalp crazy, I had to take scissors n cut inbetween the tracks and cut out tha parts of tha net that touched my scalp. ------------- |

I posted some good info on the Outre' Pro10 along with instructional videos and can be found here: http://soulfulbeauty.com/article.php?n=21 - http://soulfulbeauty.com/article.php?n=21 A lot of people seem to reference it as synthetic but it's actually a new science and considered "organic"
