finshed plastikhaar result

ok, well Im done installing the plastikhaar. I used an obscene amount haha, 4 1/2 packs.

the violet is underneath so you cant see it from this view, but the hair is layered, and I wanted diffrent color blonds in it.... but well... **** happens.

the hair itself is wonderful.



(edited cause I can never get pics right the first time)

by the way, I do feel obligated to comment on the fact that those are just pajama pants, haha.

OH MY GOD that is freakin GORGEOUS!

Absolutely amazing girl!

by the way are those pinchbraids?

WOW that is some seriously gorgeous hair, gooooood job !!!

Oh my God! It's gorgeous. That's exactly how I want my hair!!! I love it!

How long did you leave it at it's longest point, and how many layers did you do? Did you braid them in, or use shrinkies?

This gives me hope--yippie!!!!!!!!!!!!

:)

I am so excited! And kinda bummed too, I just redid mine today with my regular fusionwand/human hair just cause Im not ready yet for the synthetic and shrinkies Im still experimenting with! Although I did get some shrinkies on my head today for testing!

One more question: How many bags did you use?

:)

Duh. You already said 4 1/2 packs. Got it! :)

that is beautiful : ) How did you layer it by the way? did you cut different lengths before you put it in i take it?

my bad, I used shrinkies, well my boyfriend put them in for me (isnt he the best?) - and I cut them diffrent lenghts before I put them in. How I did thaw was take the strand I Was gonna use, then take 1/2 of that and cut approx 1/4 to 1/3 off. its hard to explain so I'll show you...



thats one piece.

that way, everythings cut before its put in, and when you move from the bottem of your head to the top, the layers just move with you, so by the end result, it looks like layers are all over the place, its because it was cut before it was put in, it has a very gradual effect. :)

ugh, sorry, more info. I need to read everything before I anwser.

the longest pieces are about 28", I just folded the plastikharr over so one side was a bit longer then the other

I imagine your bf is pretty proud of himself ! He should be! I just cant get over how incredible it looks....Im eager now to get my plastikhaar on my head! SH*T I thought my new extensions looked good but yours ROCK!

question...did you pretip the hair?

lol, hes funny. He is very proud of himself, but because of his "manhood" he doesnt want me to tell anyone he did it, lmao! Although he doesnt care if I tell people online cause he doesnt know them, but he doesnt wanna get teased. well... anymore then I already teased him.

"Oh Jonathan, your so wonderful! It's like we're sisters!"

"...shut up"

lmao

thank you so much for the explanation : )! I just ordered my plastikhaar today so now i'll know how to layer it in

LOL Kalika thats too funny!

yes I pretipped the hair, thats what I was showing in the previous picture :)

Wow, that looks fantastic! I *really* can't wait to try extensions now!

oh.. gotcha!

OHMYGOD KALIKA! I bet women want to KILL you when they see you on the street! They must think "Oh that lucky b@#%* to have such gorgeous hair." It looks absolutely beautiful. Way to go! And don't worry - nobody's looking at your pajamas.
This synth thing is rocking my world.

What a great layering idea...I gotta jot that one down, thanks Kalika

Girl, that is off the hook!

I can see the violet layer on the bottom.

You are sex on a stick. Amazing job!

Now here's an idea...

Using your photo as a reference...



Since we're not dealing with cuticles here, let's say you don't cut it into different lengths and you take a strand and fold it with one side trailing down about 25" and the other side about 10" or 15" and then stick the looped top through the shrinkie and then seal it? The strand will basically remain the 40" some odd inches and you can have double the hair in one shrinkie? (Wouldn't work with microrings because the strand would be too thick.)

Anyone know what I mean? Wouldn't this technique result in almost zero shedding and eliminate making tips altogether, too?

do you mean kind of like the double ended dread method?

I would think it would be hard for the hair to lay right if its loose. maybe someone can do a couple test shrinkies?
