I have short hair that is chin length in front and stacked shorter layers in the back. I have to be creative with putting them in and styling but it can work! I chose this color based on the recommendation from the website. It was lighter than my hair color but I decided to keep them to use for those days when I want a new color. I also just ordered a dark brown 12" seamless from a color swatch I was sent and it was an exact match!! I plan to use both sets. While they work great for my thin hair, I do find the plastic feel of the seamless to be something that has taken time for me to get use to. A small detail, but the customer service has been outstanding and I love the pink round boxes they are packaged in.
