Just sort of thinking out loud, but the "hashbrown" color, alot of people order pieces in a light blonde color, without double checking I think its R22, dont quote me on that tho. anyhow have them colored to match the exsisting hair they have, it is good for having invisible knots, I've noticed when ordering these pieces that as the hair color starts to fade, the blonde seems to come back thru, you can touch up the color as you need on the sides where it meets your own hair if it gets too light and go from there? just my 2 cents. and good luck on your journey.
