This technique was popular in the early 90’s but something predominantly for straighter hair textures. I personally as a cosmetologist recommend that you have at least 10 inches of hair .It honestly blends better on straighter hair textures unless you use more textured weave.Also be careful using combs because you can snatch your hair straight out from the follicle by mistake.
I agree. it's not a protective style. And the hair beneath the bond area can dry out, split, rub up against the extension hair and get damaged from the friction. And then you have to constantly straighten it. I'm not even a fan of leavout and I always recommend closures to my clients.
This was also low key popular in the 60s and 70s maybe even earlier. My Dad always did my weaves braid-less and undetectable. Seeing as though he went to cosmology school in the 70s, the process has at least some time stamp🤣 They keep bringing things back like it's new🤔 But I guess that's life🤣
@@moreafterthistime I'm coming across all of my Sandy Springs and Buckgead sistas my work and home commune back in the seventies when I was representing sisterhood
I wore them. I found them very damaging, you have to straighten out your root And the hair under the tip, of you don't, it looks puffy. I would rather a braid less sew in, less constant heat on your hair
You're beautiful and that hair color suits you. Black girls can wear blond. Interested in getting it done but not sure if beauticians do it in my area. I like the way you talk. Thanks for sharing.
Omg I had them done before a trip to guam🤦🏽♀️ My hair was way to thick and I kept going into the ocean, I’m thankful they were able to get them out. My hair was so dready at the roots!
This is what I wanted so badly!!! For those reasons too but I can’t find any itip hair that matches my curly texture. In some parts it’s kinky in others it’s “wavy” and then it goes to a weird diagonal sorta kinky curl and 😭 I wanted these soo badly.
Adrian Romero after doing tons of research, I thought the same thing! After being lost for so many years, I didn’t hunk I could but I now I know how! Thank you! :)
So happy for you, but given the amount of time and money I-tips seem to require, I’m thinking it would be much easier for me to get a really great custom wig made.
@@FerrariCruz girl don’t worry about what these ppl are commenting. I live in Kentucky and I’ve only seen them on white girls, black girls are now getting into them.
You could if you leave hair out in the middle. If you get this done you can tell your hairstylist that you want that hairstyle and she’ll purposely leave hair out in the middle to cover the iTIps.
Faith Morris I saw some this morning on IG. Mahariraw.com. They come in different textures. I’m going to Atl in a couple of months to get mine done. Hope this helps.
