Micro loop extensions!

 

I bought these off of EBay because I didn't want to spend a fortune on something I wasn't sure was going to work out. They were super cheap, is cost me $30 CAD for 200 strands that were 16 inches and 0.4 grams each. 

The installation is really simple, you pull your hair through the loop and use a pair of pliers to close the bead and secure your hair in place. It took me about 3 hours to put in about 175 strands (with the help of my Mom)

The Verdict: They were really cute but I just couldn't get the back to cooperate! 

My own hair in the back just wouldn't stay where I wanted which resulted in Me having to wear a hat the whole time!

The hair was super nice and soft when I received it, but after the first wash it got quite ratty. Not a big deal though cause it matched my over processed hair! Haha

For anyone wanting to buy these for length, I'd recommend spending the money and getting the strands that are 1g a piece because even with almost 200 strands, this was pretty thin!!

I wore these for about a week and then took them out because I got tired of constantly wearing a hat out in public! Haha

Overall it wasn't a bad experience, I think when my hair gets a little longer I'll go with this method again, I like that they're more permanent than clip-ins but still easy to remove when wanted!!

Irresistible Me!

So as you know I am attempting to grow my hair long once again. I've always always always wanted hair extensions and I have no clue where the obsession came from because I wanted them even when my own hair was 20" long... So basically I had some extra moola and decided they would be a Christmas present to myself (I buy Christmas presents for myself all year round...) I said "eff it, I'm totally doing it". I've been hearing about Irresistible Me extensions a lot lately so I wanted to try them out, I decided on 140 grams of hair in 20" length. The colour I chose was #613 'Silky Platinum Blonde' because my hair is bright red and they would need to be coloured.

 

 

 The price came to $125 plus $10 for shipping. I used a black Friday coupon and got 25 dollars off. They're still having the sale until Saturday at Midnight with coupon BLACK25 for 25% off. I ordered them on Sunday November 17th and they got to me on Friday the 22nd. So six days in total from when I ordered to when I got them. That's insane!! The shipping you pay for is flat rate and it says it will get to you in 2-4 days. So they were very true to what they said.

You get 10 pieces. 2-1 clips, 5-2 clips, 2-3 clips and 1 for clip.

This is the biggest weft and it's actually 3 sewn together to make it super thick!

I really just wanted to try them on haha you can see how much shorter my real hair is. Ps. don't mind the face.

I was really sad that I had to dye them because I loved the blonde colour and also they were soooooo soft and I didn't want them to get ruined! haha but you gotta do what you gotta do.

I use ION brilliance Brights in Red.

The larges weft was so hard to colour cause you had to separate all the layers.

BAM. With the bad boys in, I absolutely love them!

I tried to do an Ariana Grande look. It was my first time and I've never had
extensions before so It needs a little work but it looks cute!

Sorry this post was a million years long. I'm done now! Friday or Saturday I'm probably going to post an update on my hair using the horse shampoo, so check that shit out.
