Hair weaves/extensions?

I'm getting extensions tomorrow at a new place and was wondering if I should get the row-by-row weave or a full set weave?



After wearing my natural hair and letting it grow a decent length, I let someone do the fusion technique on my hair for some added thickness and it broke off badly. So, that's not an option for me anymore. I want someone to braid it and sew the wefts in, but I need it to look as natural as possible. Any suggestions on the best technique??



Also, I bought Remi Velvet hair ($69/pack in NY). Has anyone tried this hair before? Did you like it?



Thanks!



Hair weaves/extensions?

For best results go with a full weave that is sewn in. The hair should be braided in vertical rows (from ear to ear) if you choose a style with a part in it or in a circular pattern if you are going to wear bangs. For a natural look, make sure your own hair is left out around the hairline and the crown. Typically, these braid patterns will allow your weave to last for up to 2 months.



IMPORTANT: be sure your stylist is not braiding your hair too tight as this will cause breakage.



It is also important to maintain your weave by putting it up at night in a wrap style, satin rollers or by putting the hair in a few plaits before you go to bed. NEVER sleep on your weave. Wash it in the shower every 2 weeks with Soft Sheen Carson weave shampoo and conditioner. Regular shampoos tend to "eat" your weave.



Be sure to ask a lot of questions BEFORE your stylist begins.



Good Luck!

WELL I THINK YOU USED GET A ROW-BY-ROW AND DON'T WORRY ABOUT YOUR HAIR IT WILL LOOK NICE ON YOU SO JUST CHILL

Have them sewn in but ask they stylist to leave the very top or crown of head out. This will keep it looking natural cause your hair will blend in. If possible, ask her to leave a part out somewhere like the side or middle, with your hair out on the top. Its the same affect of having your tracks glued in row by row and leaving some of your hair out on each row. So just ask for the crown of ur hair out and the rest sewn in.



P.S. Remy hair is real good, and if you got 14 inches or more you got a good price.
