Review (3/5): thick and itchy...
I bought quite a few packages of these. I got brown, blonde, and platinum and teal.
CONS-First off, I didn't use the platinum because of how synthetic and plastic looking they looked to me. So I stuck to the other three colors. My hair was shoulder length at this time- (was).
After having these in my hair ONE day and working ALL day to get them in,I was woken in the middle of night by so much itching that clearly I was allergic or something to them. I had to remove them all in the middle of night, and doing so broke all the hair off on my bottom layer because of the rubber bands ripping my hair (I now have a short hairstyle).
Also, I tried all the heating tricks to get them to soften and it works for like a few hours and then once dried it goes back to being oddly stiff and weird looking, to were styling and sleeping with them in was near impossible.
PROS- they looked cool, and everyone in my family thought they were pretty cool looking. Just wish they weren't so stiff and synthetic looking.
