I am about to take my first adventure into the world of hair extensions. After much reading and studying, I feel the Micro-link method of attachment will probably be best. My mom is actually going to do the install for me. We have scoured the internet for how-to videos and written directions with pictures. We found some great info. The Bella Donna Milan site has a very helpful video to show how easy this extension method is. I and my mom feel very confident that this can be done. Another reason I chose Micro-link is because of how easy they are to install and remove. I know that some have had problems with them slipping. After reading a great deal, it seems that if enough hair is used in the bond, that slipping shouldn't be a problem. Can anyone confirm or deny that?
So, to get to my point of coming here, my questions are:
1. Anyone have any experience with
http://www.doctoredlocks.com/store/index.html? I am planning on ordering my hair and supplies from them in two weeks. If anyone has any bad reports on them, please let me know ASAP. I haven't seen any bad info on them but it also didn't occur to me to look until after reading through this forum for a few hours today.
2. I currently have almost chin length brown hair. I want some stupidly long hair and am planning on about 20-24 inch extensions. Obviously, I will need to get my extensions blended. I have a regular stylist I go to but I don't know if she does extensions or not. Do you guys think I need to go to a stylist that does extentions or can any stylist cut it? I mean, it's real human hair, so, as long as they are aware of the bonds and don't rip the comb through them, then it seems to me it would be the same as cutting natural hair.
Any advice or feedback would be great. I will of course come back and post pictures of the before and after.
