Amazed at the quality. Couldn't be happier!
I was initially (extremely) skeptical about buying hair extensions online. I was mainly concerned about:<br />1)  Quality<br />2)  Color<br />2)  Buying blindly online, especially at this price point.<br /><br />Boy, was I surprised! They arrived on time, and in an aesthetically pleasing sealed, tamper-evident packaging, which I greatly appreciated. I will definitely order these again (and many of my friends will be soon, too)!<br /><br />I naturally have multiple hues/tones to my hair, even more after summer sun exposure. The color matched my hair EXACTLY. The company's description says something to the effect of: due to color variances on your device's screen, the hair color you receive may differ - standard verbiage and totally expected since the only way to truly color match is in person. Anyway, the color I chose based on what I saw on my screen is true to what I received - no difference at all, actually.<br /><br />I moved to a different state a few years ago. I have done a lot of research on which hair salons are best in my very large, and very popular, capital city. I have been to 3 salons here. Each one of them completely botched my easy to color, easy to cut hair. The last salon I waited over SIX weeks for the appointment, assuming that equated to a highly experienced and sought-after stylist. Nope! That stylist royally messed up my hair and created what I can only describe as a "shelf". The top/outermost layer is super thick/deep, and it's 8 inches above the next and ONLY other layer.<br /><br />Without these beautiful extensions, it looked like I was wearing an ultra-thick, short bobbed wig on top of my long hair. Horrific!<br /><br />I don't have a picture of the badly cut hair because, frankly, it was too embarrassing for me (and I don't embarrass easily). Look at the attached photo and imagine the middle layers missing - I had the top layer and the next one was the very bottom of what you see in the picture - that's it! 2 layers! I used these extensions to fill in the middle and, I must say, they look incredible!<br /><br />I refuse to spend the amount of money salons charge for extension services (especially since extensions require repeated maintenance) so I did some research and found this company on Amazon. I couldn't be more pleased with the results! A lot of jaw's dropped when I showed my friend's how much I paid for these, especially because the quality is so good. Also, the friend's of mine who forked over nearly an entire paycheck on their salon extensions are experiencing some serious buyer's remorse right now.<br /><br />The ONLY con to this product (at least the set I personally received) was that on several pieces even the smallest bit of my hair wouldn't thread through the bead. They were not salvageable. I lost about 15 pieces because the bead was too small for any amount of hair that's supposed to go through it in order to not slip off and stay in place for the maximum time. That said, considering I only needed to fill in a section of my hair, I (quite fortuitously) ended up with the exact amount of extensions I needed to fill in that area.<br /><br />The extensions have evened out my layers, and have added a lot of volume to my overall look. My hair is as full as it was when I was in my 20's! I have naturally slightly wavy hair and, though the extension hair is straight, it waves up nicely with the right curl-enhancing products to perfectly match my natural hair.<br /><br />The hair washes nicely and dries smooth and shiny - no frizz, even after heat-styling. I only use high-quality products on my hair so I can't speak to how it would react to the average drugstore brand, but it responds very well to the products I use.<br /><br />Once you get the hang of how to "install" them, they're really quite easy. I highly recommend watching videos on YT for proper/improper microbead placement. Hair extensions will show (and create other unpleasant issues) if you haven't placed them correctly. Do your research and follow the recommended instructions!<br /><br />My friend's are so envious of my hair, they've decided to order these, and plan to spend a "spa day" at my house!<br /><br />I am VERY happy I found this company, and this product. It's been a long time since my hair has been the topic of envy. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!
