    How long does it take everyone to fit a full head of extensions?

    Just curious to how long it takes you to fit a full head of bonds? It takes me around 5-6 hours and I always see people saying it takes them like 2 hours on facebook etc. I've been doing them for a year and a half nearly so it's not like I'm new I must just be really slow?[emoji30]
