Hi, get your practice head out and practice loads ,
get plenty of firm backcombing in at the root for your base , lightly mist the roots with a decent hold laquer ,
this will give a good firm base for the clips
take your time to get the base right and plan your hair out in pieces , like cake portions
so you wont be left short of hair to work with ,

do a step by step plan on paper and take it with you , this will help you over come your nerves if you forget anything (it looks professional too ) and they will know you care , take all you need clips combs brushes capes, specially your tongs and extension lead
(make a list)
I like to glam things up too sometimes with plaits or curls made from extension hair and intertwined with those little thin silvery strands looks nice :hug: x minky

Hi, Oh cezziebear , I dont know what to say except I realize it will be a good practice run for you ,

but...the thing is though.... if I were that broke I would do my own hair or get one of the family to do it for me instead ,

( I hope she is getting her own clips hair ornaments and hairspray ect...lol x )

I really do hope they appreciate what you are doing for them

let us know how you get on :hug: x minky
