MicroLinks / CyberHair - I need your advice/testimonials - Go, No Go ?

Hello to every awesome & beautiful people here !

I have androgenetic alopecia and I have procrastinated big time on solutions thinking any hair extensions would ruin what I was trying to keep...
But I looked carefully at a many microlinks solutions (cyberhair) and it looks nice...BUT as anyone here knows, your/my hair is very fragile...so I wouldn't want to try if you guys have had a bad experience.
Do you recommend ?
Does it pulls on hair ?
Does it slides off ?
How long does it last ?
$$ ?????

Thanks a lot for sharing your experience.

p.s: I have used Rogaine for ever( on & off since 16 ) now but without seeing any improvement lately I have stopped. Actually, I feel like it got worse reaching 40 !

important note : I am north european with very thin & fine blonde hair.

I can't tell you about MicroLinks, but I've had two Amy's Presence Cyberhair Wigs (now called "Private Issue" wigs).  I thought the hair was amazing.  Quite natural, although by the end of the day, the hair in the back got clumpy and needed a good comb out - no big deal, though, so does regular hair.  Beautiful colors.  The absolute best was that it required almost no maintenance.  You can wash it and it goes right back to its original shape, just by air drying.  My only complaint was that the cap structure was not quite to my liking in comparison to my human hair wigs - it was a little a bulky.  But this was several years ago and I expect that it's been refined since then or that the wig cap can be custom made now.  

I have androgenic alopecia too.  Everyone's different, so I can't really tell you do or don't try extensions.  For me, I felt it wasn't the right choice - my hair was already short and I didn't think extensions would look quite right on me, and I also felt pretty strongly about just moving on into wig wearing.  

Re more hair falling: If you've got androgenic alopecia...what's the worst that could happen by trying extensions for a bit?  Maybe more hair falls out - it probably would no matter what you do.

Cost: I don't know how much the micro linking costs.  I would guess that it's over $1000, but that's just an educated guess.

Cyberhair longevity: I don't know about the micro linking, but each of my Cyberhair wigs lasted about 2 years. The hair was still lovely; the cap had stretched out - which is typical for any wig.  I don't think extensions of any type would last that long.

Thanks a lot for your time in answering me. 

I am not ready yet for wigs but it's good to know what other people like.

( my scalp is very sensitive so any clip thing pulls way to much, is very uncomfortable  ) 

I look forward to getting more testimonials on micro-links !! 

have a great day !
