Answer 1

Just need a trim after hair grows,hair not extensions or have them removed

Answer 2

I am a hair dresser when they are grow out and ready to come out your hair is going to look horriable!

I recomded this:

theres a new thing out called clip ons, you can do this your self and its a lot cheaper!
at a beauty supply the longest hair you want will cost about &50.00 and then going less, depending on the lenght!

the clips cost about 25 cents. buy about 15 of them

and the sewing thred and the neddle spesially used for this about $5.00!


the process cut hair dew to the measure of your head you need 3 layers,
measure first layer:
by the top of your ears
second:
half and inch down from that
thrid:
a half of inch down frow that.

this varies, Now you will have more than enought hair! So if you want a thicker look for each layer cut two of the same peases and then sew together.

to apply the clips use five on each layer, starting one from the end and to the other end, spred them out!

sew the clips on and your done!

It costs about $100.00

I am a hair dresser, so who better to trust

good luck!

Answer 3

Hi,

Don't do it. Get clip-in ones they cost between £20-£100 and take minutes to put in. You can wash them, brush them tie them up etc just like normal hair.

It's so much cheaper and a lot kinder to your hair. Many Afro hair shops sell them in a range of colours, you can also get curled ones.

Good Luck!!!
