    Dont leave them damp. It will start smelling bad from developing mold. And never sleep on them when they havent fully dried. Best is to at least blow dry the weave where they are sewed in.

    I live in imperial California & I paid $662 for 18 inch hair & my stylist charged me $180 for installation. It would have been $740 for 22 inches but I didn’t want my hair too long. I’m not sure what brand they are tho. Also I believe blond extensions cost more! So that’s the price for dark hair but for blond 22 inches it would have been $920. I hope this helps anyone looking into getting these ☺️

    You can’t feel it but it’s a little tight to wear a bun? It does look gorgeous. And it’s so true they get way shorter in about a month. Seriously like can end up 2 inches shorter! The lighter it is the more it breaks. And shit gets dry seriously. You have to use the whole Olaplex line. Especially # 6 and the oil on the ends. I’ve been doing extensions 23 years. That’s literally the only product that slows the breakage. You look Gorgeous all and all. 😉

      Best to research, know what's involved & plan your budget. Learn about types of hair products, how they're made, pro's vs con's & costs. Machine sewn wefts are less expensive than hand tied. If your hair is thin or fine you may want to add single sided tape ins, I-tips, or keratin tips at sides. Keratin tips can be spit in half for temple areas. Watch several stylists do the install process to see variations. Understand required maintenance, proper care & potential problems. Prices vary depending on location, like any beauty service. Chose an experienced stylist or see their work. In consultation discuss your expectations, hair texture & specific color preferences. Best wishes to you & abundant Blessings!

      Not sure if you were still needing an answer but they recommend getting them moved up every 2 months and they last about 9-12 months if you choose to keep maintaining them.
