Short Hair Set

My short hair set is actually a combination of two sets of hair. I wanted my hair to be thick so I bought two sets. Since I bought the sets, I've done a lot of modifications to them to make them work better for me. But here is some of the original information before my modifications.


Original Set (this is per set)


Length: 15 inches
Weight: 70g - 80g
Pieces: 7 pieces
Texture: Straight
Color: #1B
Material/type: remy human hair
Price: $49.95
Purchased from: Hair Extension Sale


Keep in mind, I bought two sets. So my total expense was $99.90 for 140g-160g and 14 pieces of 15inch hair. As nice and thick as it is, it is just way too expensive to get more. And this is only for 15 inches of hair! That's not exactly very long. The price just deterred me from purchasing from there again. And the price doesn't include shipping, so you have to pay extra for shipping. Although I did get a small discount when I purchased them, and they came with a free set of short feather extensions, I still paid about $100 for everything. That, to me, was just way too much.


Since then, I have made a lot of modifications to the set because there were still a lot of things I didn't like about it. It did not match the color of my hair, so I had to dye it darker to a jet black. The ends were very thin and it just did not blend well with the blunt ends of my own hair. I trimmed it to make it look thicker and blend better. I have a bob so my ends are quite thick and blunt. Also, I thought 14 pieces were just way too much and it's uncomfortable having so many clips on your head. This was my very first set so I wasn't used to having so many clips in. I ended up combining some of the pieces because the single pieces were just thin and it didn't make sense to have such thin pieces. So after all these modifications, the set was quite different from what it was before. Here is the set now:

Current set


Length: 14 inches
Weight: unknown (about 140g?)
Pieces: 7 pieces
Texture: Straight
Color: #01
Material/type: Remy human hair








One 9 inch piece with 4 clips







Two 6 inch pieces with 3 clips each








Two 4 inch pieces with 2 clips each




















Two 2 inch pieces with 1 clip each



















So I've made it quite a thick set in just a few pieces. To be honest, I like it that way. Not only does it have more hair in less pieces, but it lets me have more space on my head to put on more hair extensions! I just love having super thick hair but who doesn't?


As you can see, it isn't very long but it is quite thick. I made where my hair ends obvious so you can see where my hair stops and where the extensions start.
