enough hair?

Post by iddylove » Mon Dec 27, 2010 4:07 am

ok so after i take my dreads out i want to do sew in extensions. ive done this plenty of thimes, but never with my hair this short. it about 2 inches above my shoulder and fine. i have ordered one 105g pack of 18in human hair from blackngold, and now im wondering it it will be enough since my hair is short? im not worried about it blending as im planning on cutting it into a heavily textured style anyhow, but will it be to thin looking? 105g is a pretty decent amount of hair, but like i said ive never tried it with such short hair.
thanks in advance for your input :)

You may find that you will have to cut into the hair a bit in order to make it believable. Or style it more like a fashion mullet. Style is really key when there is that much difference in length. My hair is about the same length and I usually stick with 14'' hair because I don't like having to put a lot of time into styling it everyday. When I took mine out I threw dreads in so I wouldn't have to style at all for awhile.

That's a cute cut! You should be able to get that style very easily, and I love color accents :)

My hair is about 5/6 inches long. I have glue in tracks so a different method but all the same.
These are what mine look like:

Not the best angle but you get the idea (:
I think it will be fine.
