I had more hair added over the weekend and one of the bonds (keratin) really is in a strange position and shows it is to close to the hair line and I don't have enough hair to cover it unless I put it behind my ear. I don't want to go through the hassle to go the salon...not that close.
Is there a way to take this one out myself at home?
Thanks

Sure you can take it out at home. All you need is a drop of acetone (used for removing artifical nails, can be found in the nail section of the BSS, or even in walmart, etc) and a pair of pliers. Use a cotton ball and dab a little acetone on the bond and then crunch it with the pliers. The bond should crumble and the extension hair should slide right out.  ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |

You can also use keratin remover. It can be found here.

| Sultry hair has had lots of negative reviews on Black Hair Media. I would proceed with caution. |

I believe most keratin removers are acetone based. Nearly 100% acetone with a few inert ingredients. So...I opt for pure professional acetone, and its usually cheaper than the removers. Some bonds (like great lengths or maybe so-cap ? cant remember) use a high % alcohol for removal. ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |
