When should you not use a reciprocating saw?

Before using, inspect the tool cord for damage; if any are found, do not use the tool. Put on personal safety gear.Your hair should be at least 4 to 6 inches long for results that are subtle and natural. This enables the clips and bonds of your extensions to be covered by your natural hair.
