“I quite like the quality of the hair extensions that I ordered (Bellisima, #6). I find that the extensions are incredibly natural looking. The color is very much off from my natural hair color, I wish that there was a color available that was between Chocolate Brown and Chestnut Brown. Prior to purchasing I considered it quite likely that I would have to color the extensions to receive a more “matching†shade and this was an accurate prediction. I also would love to see Bellami produce extensions that are of 230 gram volume and 26†in length. I should have purchased the 24†for the length, because after layering the extensions to blend with my natural hair I have lost some of the length that I had wanted. Furthermore, I have not experienced substantial shedding with these extensions, though I have only owned them for less than one month. I found Bellami’s extensions to be somewhat frizzier/ more static than expected, though this can be fixed with a silk infusion product applied to the hair. The extensions have very high quality clips and are both comfortable and easy to apply. I have very fine, “baby†hair that is almost 18†long. The clips hold the extensions on to my head easily, I do not tease my hair and find that after wearing the extensions for an hour or so I no longer realize that I am wearing them. One issue I faced is that because my hair is fine, the rows of extensions can be somewhat seen on the back of my head. The hair of the extension covers the clips so that the clips are not seen but if my hair is not styled in some way then bumps can be seen on my scalp of where the extensions are clipped in. The extensions are covered by my hair but my hair is not thick enough for a natural look. To combat this I use a volumizing powder, this increases the volume of my hair and prevents the extensions from being noticeable. The hair is consistent in volume from the clip of the weft to the very ends of the hair. I find that if the thickness of the hair was exactly the same for the entire length, then this would be almost unnatural since natural hair does not grow in such a form of thickness.
Recommendations to future people considering purchasing…
• Purchase a longer set than desired to provide the desired length after layering.
• Have a beautician style the extensions when clipped in with natural hair to receive the most natural look or blend.
• Use a heat protection spray on the extensions, the hair is real and can be damaged by heat products.”
“The color from the Internet was completely off from my hair color. My daughter accidentally opened the wrong side of the package so I couldn't return them for a color that was closer. I haven't been able to use them because I will need to have them all dyed to match my color.”
“My first time ever purchasing/wearing hair extensions & i love them!! Chestnut brown matched my hair perfectly! Super easy to clip on & style! Cant wait to wear them for by wedding!!!”
