The Flexi-8 / Lilla Rose Thread

[Chasemi]

Thank you for responding! Absolutely, I'm so excited and just a bit nervous

Looks like there's a Black Friday sale, if anyone's interested.

Here are the clips I ordered! The first two are the ones I selected, and the other 6 (5 medium, 1 xxs) were the surprise ones! I also got a surprise hair stick!

That's a pretty good haul for surprise Flexi's.

I agree! Very happy with it!

Chasemi, that’s a nice variety! Is there a black flexi at the bottom of the surprise ones, I am on mobile and can’t quite make it out

[Chasemi]

It's the xxs, it's dark brown and has beautiful stones throughout!

Hey all, I'm having some confusion regarding flexi clip sizes. I picked up a size M flexi clip recently. It's too small, but I'm unsure if I should size up to L or XL.

My thickness is just over 4", length is between collarbone and APL (recently cut off all my old henna). It's highly layered, layers beginning at ear level, so I have a smidge more thickness when they grow out (maybe half a dime size).

The medium barely fit a ponytail and was very difficult to fit into a tails-up, but possible (with effort).

If I want to do buns should get an XL?

In the future I'll be growing to MBL and probably longer layers, and I know for sure I'll need an XL then, but I'm not so sure about right now, at APL with layers. Just want to do a cinnamon bun style for now.

Suggestions?

I have just about HL (31”) length and probably a 3.5” ponytail with my bangs and face framing not included. My hairs are baby fine and compress quite a lot. I use the M for some center held buns (like the spock bun) and the XL more like a cage over cinnamon buns. There is a significant jump in size from the L to XL, but I have to read the clip/ inspect side by side to tell the difference between M and L. I like size L best, it seems most versatile to use for all buns, I just adjust where it’s going through the bun. It’s too loose for tails up for me.

Hope any of this is helpful for your decision!

stardust lady, I agree with @rosenester. I have KL hair 2c/F/ii and have a L and XL. As she said, there is a significant jump between these two sizes and they both work for me depending on how I'm using them. The XL works well for "chunkier" buns on me since my hair also compresses a lot. When I joined here my circumference was 3.75" but lost some due to covid. I stopped measuring the circumference. Where your hair is measurably thicker, I'd recommend the XL. If it's not the right size for you, I think Lilla Rose does size exchanges, but not positive on that.
