How do you remove sew-in extensions?

[whosthatgurl]

I got these done for prom, and the braids are really loose. I'm kepping these in until Graduation, which is on the 14th.

Just cut the thread and the tracks will slide out. Be careful not to cut your hair though.

Whenever i would get a sew-in in the past, I would let someone else cut it out for me..... either a girlfriend or the stylist. There is NO WAY i would have attempted to cut it out myself. THe thread is black, so i couldnt distinguish it from my own hair. Plus, i just cant see on the top/sides of my hair, even if the thread was bright yellow. I would have DEFINITELY ended up cutting some of my own hair out with the track.

My suggestion is that u find a girlfriend who is patient..... get some tiny little scissors and/or thread ripper........ and let her spend the afternoon taking the tracks out. Make sure you sit in good lighting.

Umm...what she said. I use the small scissors like the the ones for your cuticles. I take my sew-ins down and install them myself. I have experience installing as well as taking them down. Find some one to help you!!!

I cut them out my self. just run ur finger under the track. as soon as you hit a bump or something that stops your finger, its the thread. I would lift up the track and cut the string CAREFULLY or half your progress with be on the floor

Yeah... I can usually feel the thread since it's thicker than my hair.
