Hair Extension Help

RachRubyD

Hi I have been wearing hair extensions for around 7 years+. I am a fan of clip in extensions. I tried sewn in extensions a year back and never again. Not only does it cost a small fortune getting them fitted but then also tighted, it also is insanely itchy all the time. Prefer being able to just put them in and out whenever I chose. Plus the hair lasts longer I feel when its just clip in as you don't need to wash it as much.

Anyway am just interested in clip in extensions. I'd prefer the DIY weft as I like to cut the hair to my own liking. I have tried FoxyLocks (didn't like it at all, felt like barbie hair), all different types of Remy and so on but mainly indian remy( don't like it at all, it goes dry, bushy and matted really easy) My last purchase was from ebay one of the trusted and highest selling extensions but after a few uses they went horrible and dry. I really like Sleek extensions think it was the european ones, but my local hair extensions shop has increased the price by alot because the shop has become popular. I use to pay around £40 for 18inch full head sleek now they telling me its £60.

There is tons of shops online that sell them. I have heard a few people recommend HeadKandy and Halo hair.

I looked at these websites HeadKandy are offering 20 inches (£4 difference between this and 18inch) which is a huge 180grams of hair for £90. These are pre-cut and clipped though. Also just says its remy hair not what remy type though like indian or european.

Halo also have 20inches of hair but only 100g but cheaper at £60 (Also pre-done for you). Same as Headkandy as it just says 100% Remy Human Hair .

Came across a website called Lushhairextensions and a full head 20inches,100grams for only £45 and this is DIY weft. Says they are Finest Quality Silky Soft European Remy Hair.

Another website I came across (a few years back it was recommended in a few magazines) is Luncinda Ellery, she sells clip in extensions online and I know she has quite a few celebrity clients.
They only sell 18 inches and its £78 but its 120g. Also pre-done with 12x clips in. Website says that the hair is premium quality Remy Cuticle hair. Still not sure what Remy it is though.

Heard a few people recommend hairtrade as well. Found I&K hair extensions here. The first wasI&K Remi Cuticle hair Weft (113g) £70 for 18 inches.

A cheaper version is the I&K Human Hair Silky Weaves which is £55 for 18inches 113g but doesnt say its remy just that its 100% human and A grade.

Anyway if someone has had experience with these websites and have loved the extensions i'd love to hear your opinions. Or even if you have another company you like to suggest be great. I can't do sythentic looks silly as the hair is really shiny and mine isn't. Plus I like to curl and straighten the extensions as my own hair is inbetween straight and curly. My budget is £100 but thats gotta be 20 inches and something super special like last a year or more.

My sleek extensions (I bought a year ago) are on their last legs and the rest I bought this year (Foxylocks and Ebay) have been terrible.

I live in Liverpool if anyone knows any good shops in this area as well.
