Review: HK Hair - Dirty Looks Hair Extensions!
Hey everyone!
So I'm back to do a review of my NEW Dirty Looks HK hair extensions! I purchased them online from the Dirty Looks website http://dirtylooks.us/ and all I have to say is I LOVE THEM!
I have purchased hair extensions and wigs in the past, but these are by far my favorite! Here is the link to the exact one's I purchased: http://dirtylooks.us/full-head-hair-extensions
I purchased the 150grams 12-14" hair extensions in the color "Spiced Auburn"
They don't match perfectly, but that is because I dye my hair to match them, and it's hard to get an exact match. Also, red hair dye fades super quick, and that sucks. BUT, you can't tell! They blend in so well with my hair its unbelievable! I have worn them straight, but I've been wearing them wavy. I have used heat on them, but what I like to do is dampen them with a spray in leave-in conditioner, braid them loosely, then leave them overnight. When I put them into my already wavy hair, they look just like my hair did when it was long!
As far as wefts, you get a lot of them! It is definitely a lot of hair, and if you have thick hair I would recommend them, because I don't have a problem blending them in, or not having enough hair to work with. For wefts you get a 3 clip weft that is actually 3 wefts of hair sewn together, so it's the thickest of the bunch. This makes it excellent for blending into your natural hair. Then you get 2 more regular 3 clip wefts, 5, 2clip wefts, and 2, 1clip wefts. For me, I use all the wefts, even though I don't really need to. I just love the full look! The clips are comfortable and have a rubber backing so they stay put in your hair. :) As far as shedding, I haven't had hardly any at all. When they first came to me, a few pieces of hair fell out, but other than that they have not shed at all, unless I pull on them hard, then a hair or two might come out.
Any complaints?
I do have one. After about 2 uses, one of the clips broke. I had to sew on another clip that I had already had from other extensions, but I'm okay with that. It does irk me a tiny bit, just because I paid so much money for them, and I didn't expect a clip to break that easily, with no extra force used. BUT, I had extra clips, so I just swapped out the broken one with a new one and they are fine now.
Overall, I HIGHLY recommend Dirty Looks extensions! Altogether with tax and what not, mine came to be around $180, but I'm not quoting that, but I think that was about right.
So if you're looking for high quality, thick, human hair extensions, check them out! They took a week to get to me, which isn't bad at all!
So I hope this helps! and here are some before and after pictures!

Back to Blonde! (kind of)
Hey everyone!
So this is going to be a short, to the point post...but I wanted to share with you that after going from black to red, I decided to go even lighter and highlight my hair. I know it was soon after but oh well, that's what I do. lol
How did I do it though? One simple easy process and that is by using the Revlon Frost and Glow highlighting kit for medium to dark brown hair.
This is what the box looks like:
You can find it at drugstores, Wal-Mart, etc. I got mine at Wal-Mart.
Anyway...I just used this kit according to the directions, left it on max time, and ended up with golden blonde highlights! I plan on using a different kind of bleach and a 20 vol. developer in a month or so to go even blonder, just do some more highlights, so I'll post if and when I do that. But here are some before and after pics :)
