hi sarah thanks for replying i fitted 190 once and it seemed really thick and a bit too many bonds im fairly new to this method iv been using micro loops would u fit 200 on someone with really thick hair and is that with 1 gram sorry for questions lol xx

 

[sarah_clancy]

It really depends on the texture of the clients hair i suppose...
if they had really fine hair then probably 150..
I like to fit lots if I can just to give it the nice thickness as the hair sheds.
Yeah this woukd be 1g too!

thanks alot sarah iv done quite a few now but they have all been fine/medium hair and i have someone next week who has quite thick hair so i think thats why im asking because i thought il probably be using more for this client can i be really nosey sarah and ask what hair and supplier you use and what ones to avoid i got lush last time but went very dry im that used to buying the wefts xx

 

[sarah_clancy]

no worries
I have been using LushUs..
Wasnt very happy with the fitting I had in my own hair but I put that down to just being reall processed as I am colour 60!
And the latest reviews on here havent bee too good either have they?
Im looking at using Halo for my next fitting ive got in.. were reccomended by a fellow geek yesterday!xox

 

[BEAUTY4U]

yes im the exact same colour 60 very dry and sticking together iv been finding it really hard trying to get blonde colours iv heard people rave about celeb elite but its quite expensive and bit out of range for my clients but i explain the less you pay for hair the more dry it will be i was looking at halo and all set to get it then i read some bad comments on here an dthat put me off but iv seen really good ones aswel think i might give them a try aswel thanks very much for your help sarah its much appreciated xxx

I have tried all the usual brands - Lush us, foxy, celeb elite, buy hair, additional lengths but by far Halo is the best. The website is Hair Extensions | Human and Clip In Hair Extensions | Halo | Halo | Great Hair Extensions which is there retail website but they also do wholesale prices, just call up and make your order. They have a huge huge stock, I have never found them out of stock of anything - I currently do 3 - 5 per week and they are always perfect. The guys there are so helpful especially Beth the wholesale manager. It is always next day delivery via courier, they have fab new boxes too and free gifts! When I first started they sent me free samples to check hair quality. I love Halo!

Sorry honey,
ive only just read this,
I havent used halo, no.

But know a couple of people who have, 1 like it, 1 didnt?

 

[lusciouslox]

the amount depends on the lots of factors.
firstly how much hair dose the cliente have?
is it fine or thick?
what micro ring system are you using and what thickness are the extensions?

i know this sounds like a lot of questions but i personaly use on average 80 extension but the average weight of each extension is 1.2 gram.

opsed to most people that are using 0.5 - 0.8
the less micro rings the more comfortable the result

 

[BEAUTY4U]

hiya i didnt know you get them in that gram do you mind me asking where you buy them from xx

Silicone micro rings are non evasive and not as harsh as glue. Also if the client wants the extensions out she doesn't have to come back to the salon as it's just a case of pliers at the ready. Use 200 to 240 approx

 

[longlengths]

I try and use 200 micro rings on a full head!
