Hiya Amm,

You must have gotten my psychic message last night. . .I was laying in bed thinking about hair (as usual), and I remembered that you started this thread discussing WaWa and showing how incredible it is to work with.

We've all been so crazed by Plastik that I forgot to ask how it was holding up. I've got quite a bit of it on order but I don't know what the hold up is. I'm gonna call Hair Sisters today and find out where it is!! I am planning on doing a good deal of it in my hair.

THANKS AGAIN for posting the update!!

FinaFina

Edit later: Just spoke to Hair Sisters. Apparently they don't stock the blondes at their site in California; he said it had to be shipped "directly from New York". I'm hoping they have it there. Will advise.

I just got the package today from ebonyline. Its the thermal synthetic that weve been chatting about
http://www.ebonyline.com/goyabubrha.html

This stuff looks amazing. It is really soft, and pretty. And not even shiney. It has way less sheen than the freetress. I dont think that PH is too shiney either and this stuff is 'duller' in appearance than the PH. This is definitely difficult to tell from human hair.

The labeling on the package says "Amour' Hair Collection. New Age Fiber. And on the back of the package is the name Chade Fashions Inc.

Will try to get some pictures of it tomorrow. My daughter is gone and wont be home til late and she has the camera.

I am eager to do some playing around with this hair. It is sooooo pretty!

I looked for the thermafiber that Sally's is supposed to get today. The manager said it was in, but won't go on the shelves until next week. Boo.

You'd think, if they had a customer who was interested they would have 'at least' gotten it out for you to look at!

what is the brand name you are referring to?? I just picked some up with the name sassy's that is effing awesome, but I am new to hair, so I don't know how this holds up to long term care hair...but it too is labeled thermafiber. And claims to be able to be curled.

If you want, if this may be it, I can curl it and wash it and let y'all know.

STS, I think that's it. Was it about $14.99 or so for a weft? I just know it's in the sale ad.

Sherrie, I wasn't too sure about this lady at Sally's (I don' t know where my usual friendly salespeople were). She was apparently going to do extension for a customer, but she was telling the customer to buy the regular kanekalon wefts! This girl had wavy hair!! The girl was disappointed when she was told that you can't curl the cheap synth, but I suggested the thermofiber. The lady who was going to do the extensions (I'm betting a weave track) couldn't even get the thermofiber out for her weave customer? I don't get it.

Leia thats some pretty sad customer service! My Sallys is awesome for color products/advice/help. Ive never had a problem with them in that way. But they carry very little extension/weaving products and look at me clueless when I ask them about anything to do with extensions! They have the products on the shelf but dont have the first clue about them! Also I remember when I was looking for that velvet curling iron (that you were so helpful with Leia!), they told me they had never heard of such a thing! LOL

Oh Im telling you.... this ebonyline stuff looks so much like human hair that I could easily get it mixed up! Not one of the other synthetics look this close to human, that Ive seen so far. This stuff does not have the synthetic shine. But I dont mind the PH slight shine. At least the colors I have in PH seem ore matte than some synthetic that Ive seen.

Just to correct my post Jenny about the longest thermofiber Ive seen.

American Dream has Thermofiber on wefts or in bulk in 18 different shades in ALOT of blonde shades ( 6 or 7 shades of blonde alone.)

You can get it in 4 different textures. Some wefted, some bulk. Some dyeable, some not.

Wefted- Dyeing:
18 in 100 grams $18.83
36 in 200 grams $37.68
60 in 400 grams $62.11

Bulk- Non Dyeing:
18 in 112 grams $16.87
20 in 112 grams $20.64

Although AD is in London and Im not sure about therir shipping charges to US etc....

Yup. thats it! someone said it sucks, so i may just put it on clips so it isn't a hair I wear every day, so it can last a while without washing

Hey Sherrie -

We've been chatting about a few kinds of "thermal" fibers--I think anyway--

Is the ebonyonline stuff you just got curlable with a regular curling iron? Do you plan on putting some in ?

I'm bummed my WaWa won't be here until the 22nd! At that rate it looks like my PH will be here first! But I'm worried about not having enough wave in the PH (which you had thought was a problem since you don't like yours straight -- I don't like mine straight either cuz it doesn't blend with my hair which has a slight wave.)

Thanks! From the soap-opera lady,
Fina
