i think u are reading too much into the thickness thing. i am sure you can get real hair euro at bigger money . but why. #1 thing you must rembemer the hair world is no exact science. 2 units are never the same.very close ,but they are handmade. if a giant hcm company cannot get you really nice consistantly .??? send john a sample. as we speck my philippine wifes best friend is a ventalor we yahoo chat. worker in factorys just build the products they dont know jack about wearing. gel could teach them alot.i used to worry about texture . if thats your worry u need to worry more about color mach/cuttins/blending. hiding the front lace/bleached knots/ attachment. best of luck. you got alot more worries then hair texture.
