Do you have Sally's over there? I got the Satin Strands, it's real human hair, and they are about $80, but if you buy their Sally card $5 you get some % off, I forget how much but it's more than the $5 the card costs. The hair comes on one long weft and you cut it to the width of your head and you sew in hair ext clips. (about 3 -5 clips per strip). I use about 5 strips across the back of my head, stopping just above the ears, and then cut small pieces (just wide enough to fit on one clip) and clip those above my ears near the temples.

I've had them since 2006 and they still look really good. I mostly wear them a few times a year to halloween and various costume events. You can curl them with a curling iron and they look great. No split ends on them either.
