I just ordered my UPA Ponytail!

[KnottyGurl]

It's on now! I'm just going to use it to help with my stretches. I ordered the synthetic hair. Most of you ladies ordered human. Does anyone else have synthetic? Do you like it?

Anyway, I'll try to post some pics when I get it. I'm soooo excited!

Geechy, all of mine are synthetics and they look good! Only problem is tangling on the bottom layer which touches my clothing. I shampoo them, rinse with water then swish in cream rinse before another water rinse, hang dry. I sometimes have to finger detangle but not bad at all.

Thanks for the tips! So I guess I should con-wash every 1-2 weeks to keep it from tangling. I'll probably end up cutting it to reach the bottom of my neck. I want it to look close to realistic for me. Most people know that my hair isn't APL!

UPA: Undetectable Ponytail Attachment

You put your hair in a ponytail and then attach the UPA around it. It will look like this (a couple of examples):

I have that one {2} {THE WAVE} and people at work gasped when they saw it, especially after I did one braid then attached it. I also have the LOOSE CURL and I think the other is THE DEEP FRENCH WAVE. I love them all but only wear them about three days in a row then bun or french it. Let me tell you, those tails saved my tail many a time when I screwed up my hair before an event! You'll be happy...Michelle is responsive to e-mails, problems and questions you may have.

Thanks for posting! I'm glad someone purchased the same thing I did. After reading your post, I'm looking at the Loose Curl too.

Is there a BIG difference between the human and synthetic? When I get the straight hair, I'm buying human so that I can curl/style it.

I had a human haired UPA clip:

I put it on as soon as the package came in the mail. Its not attached to my hair right (I was too excited to do so), but I posted it so you can see how well it blended in with my hair.

Thanks for posting your pic. I would have never guessed that was a UPA. It looks great. I've heard so many great things about the UPA, I can't wait to wear mine.
