i love love love clip-ins! i have 3 sets...one is a brand apex (my 1st set ever) 7pcs, i also have some by lord & cliff, but my new faves are some that i made from some virgin indian hair. they are 22" wavy and blend perfectly. if you can sew on a button you can make them yourself...very easy. i just say find a texture that blends well with your own and you're good to go. it also wouldn't hurt to spring for some higher quality hair to avoid tangling issues etc. i know of some ppl that have had that problem when they made clip-ins out of cheaper bss hair.
