I just finished a hair extensions course a few months ago where I got taught using micro rings, shrink rings, fusion bonds and weaving.
Although I am not ready to start doing them professionally as I'm going back to college to train in hairdressing (Don't ask why I did it backwards lol) I've been practising on friends.
Well i'd done about 4 different people and it was going great until this one girl I did last night didn't turn out well. I got taught that if the hair was long enough to tie back into a small ponytail it was long enough for extensions. This girl had a graduated bob with the back coming to about the base of her neck and the front coming to just under her chin and the extenions just didnt seem to blend!!
The colour match was perfect but all you could see was an arch shape from where her graduated bob was, and then long extensions.
Her hair is quite thick and the bob was quite blunt, I added as many extensions as I could (safely) but it still wasn't helping.
Is a thick graduated blunt bob a massive no no for extensions?
I was using the shrink ring method if that makes a difference.
Please don't lecture me, like I said im only still learning and wouldn't dream of charging any money yet.
Practise makes perfect right?
