at Melasti. my hair is/was very short, had 7 packs just past shoulder length, straight not braided, I will have it styled now I'm back in New Zealand. Cost $550 per pack for top quality black hair, 12" long. I chose Melasti Spa in Legian after researching forum. My hair was very short, crop above ears and a wee bit longer at the back. Took 4 hours and should last 4 months according to the hairdresser. She was extremely good and I was so happy I tipped her an extra 150,000! Have had the hair tied up for the rest of holiday(14 days) and washed, brushed treated it as my own since it was done.The joins(glue) are a bit visible, probably because I've tied the hair up on top of my head,but if I can get past the growing out stage I'll be happy. Also doesn't help that my hair is black, if you're brown or blonde it won't be so noticeable. A lot of places will do the braided extensions, but be careful if you don't want braids, I believe you'll get what you pay for! There are various qualities of hair available, check them out first!
