How I did it
How to get loc extensions
It took me
60 days
It made me
smart

How I did it: It is expensive to do this in a salon - $500 to $1,000. I reasearched and even picked out an hairdresser, but the money! So I found out the hair they use, bought it and practiced on my own. When I thought I got the method down (youtube is good for videos), I did it myself. Worth it! Read how I did it…

Needs

I am not looking for any sophisticated systems. My research reveals that one can spend a fortune on these things.

My aim: To have meditative/elevator music throughout the day and night. I think this will help with my mental health.

Here are the features I need:

- speakers for the living room, bedroom & kitchen
- bass not important as I am playing meditative music
- works with the existing technologies. No need to get bluetooth devices, iTouch or iPads.
- ideally works with my existing Logitec dock
- easy to setup!
- not expensive!

So far I have looked at the Jawbone Jambox, Creative D100 and Logitech Z5575. However they are all complicated or require bluetooth. The winner seems to be:

Cables To Go SPK-VELO-4KIT2 Premium 900MHz Wireless Indoor/Outdoor 4 Speaker System with Remote and Dual Power Transmitter. The feature I do not like is the fact that each speaker requires 4 C batteries when not plugged in. But this is not a problem for my intended STATIONARY use.

What to Do?

Turns out I passed the written test. What to do? What to do? Move on to the next stage? Not? Have I lost the initial fire that led me to start the process?
