    Default Bonded hair extentions

    Hi guys

    Need some help on bonded hair extentions.
    I have a terrible haircut now since I am still growing my natural hair back from accidental chemical ruin about a year ago.

    I have shoulder length hair in all but the top part of my hair is cut shorter all around than the longer bottom shoulder length pieces.

    The front is short, I part my hair and the bangs hang just above my eye- and the sides are finally just covering my ears. The hair is about 6 inches all around
    on top. don't have a single hair that is cut the same length.

    When I put the extentions in, the sides, front and back all look fake because the top is 6 inches, the bottom shoulder-legnth, and I was trying to put 14 and 18 inch extentions in When I try to fill in the sides towards the front, the extentions don't hang right.

    Is there a way I can get these extentions right?

    Have you considered removing the extensions and wearing a high quality wig?

    Thanks you for the suggestion SuperStripper =)

    I've tried and seen high quality wigs with the skin part. I don't like wigs. I am not working now so I cannot go get a weave.

    Anyone have advise of the placement of hair tracks on
    short hair that is different legnths all around?

    i am black and occasionally use hair bonding glue to attach my weaving hair although that tends to pull your real hair out with too much uses.

    Do you have enough hair on top to have braided? Then the tracks can be sewn in by a professional who specializes in braids, weaves and extensions. That way your hair can grow while braided if you minimize the use of the glue to only parts of your head that are too short.

    I wouldn't try to do this yourself until your hair gets back to a uniform length. the braids and tracks will need to be tightened every few weeks by your stylist.

    My hair is very short naturally...about 4 inches all over...as in layers...growing out a pixie cute from last year....yikes!! :o
    I have ententions down to my bum...and I am 5'8 so that's about 24 inches... I don't find a problem blending the short hair at the top in anymore as I went and got "Great Lengths" extentions. They are individually attached and last up to 6 months. Real human hair, you can curl it, cut it, colour it,,,anything you would do to normal hair. Run your fingers through it and all. I used to have a weave,,,,both sewn in once and glued the other times but too much maintenance and felt like a wig on my head anyway...didn't look as natural. Check out the website, there are alot of salons that do them all over North America. I think it's Greatlengths.com,,,but I could be wrong....Try a Google search too.

    Best damn thing I ever did to my hair!

    Hope this helps!
