Review (4/5): Great - For the Price!
This is a duplicate review of the one I left on the Red Hot Chili color...
I was looking to add a little fun and flair to my style so I bought 3 of the red (Red Hot Chili) and 3 of the purple. For $10 I got a whole lot of fun. They go in super easy and come out super easy. There are a ton of how-to videos on YouTube if you need it.
I was able to use light heat to straighten out the kinks from the packaging. One piece got a little damaged because I used a little too much heat. My fault - I know better. They are not human hair. If these were human-hair extensions they would have cost ~$20 each - and they wouldn't have as much color. You don't get the option to curl them, and they won't last as long; but if you don't wear the same ones every day they should last you a bit. Yes, a hair or 2 will fall out here and there. I probably lose 30 strands of my own hair a day so sure...why not? They are $1.50 for crying out loud.
If you want bright, punky colors, you pretty much need to go synthetic. With synthetic you know it's going to look like barbie doll hair. It's just the way it is. I used two pieces on one side of my head and one in the other, and it blended in well enough that my husband and a friend both thought I had dyed my hair. If it was a whole wig of hair it would be more noticeable. But a little piece here and there looks great.
Definitely by the end of the day the clips started to make my scalp a little sore, hence the 4 stars vs. 5. I wouldn't dream of wearing them for more than a day, or sleeping in them <shudder>. They go in and out so easy, who cares? Just remember to be very careful brushing your hair or even running your fingers through it. When you tug on the extension your whole head goes with it. ouch!
Yes, they're long...just cut them. I'm going to order more and make different lengths for fun styles. I'm also getting more colors. What a truly inexpensive way to change your look up, and with no damage to your hair whatsoever
Mine shipped from overseas so expect a bit of lead time on the shipment. At this price, whatever!
