QuoteReplyTopic: Mixing Up Synth Posted: February 08 2005 at 6:18am
I think it's 'cause there are so many colors? I have rings from other synth and human systems, and yeah, they were $20ish each, but there's only like 10-20 colors on them. PH, on the other hand, has 70+ rainbow colors and 40+ natural ones.
ahhhh I just remembered something. (scarey, I know!) If anyone is interested in a PH color ring we should all get together on it somehow, and place an order. I remember Sara saying in a post that if enough people were interested she may be able to give a better price on the rings.
How is the Plastikhair holding up? Anyone know? I would love to know how this type washes; such as do you use conditioner on it? Shampoo? Does it tangle in a big ball when wearing it? The Med. brown that Sara sent me was too dark for my hair though. I would buy it if I could get a color match. I sent her a sample of my hair and she sent back the best match I guess.
Jenny, I did just order a natural color ring, but I think I messed up my order! I emailed Sara to find out what bufoonery I've caused. I don't understand why the color rings are so expensive. Any other company they are $20 for ALL the colors. Ah well.
I can't order any hair without seeing an accurate representation, so I have to get one.
Coolio! Thanks, girls. I think I've covered all possible bases now.
Bridget, here's the link to the wave patterns too (it's kinda hard to find on the site): http://www.plastikhaar.ch/bilder/curls.jpg I think Sara mostly stocks 28mm and 50mm, but she can get the others. Also, she can do wefts by request; otherwise, it's standard bulk.
Also--and you probably already know this--but if you're planning to order from PH, just make sure to order a color ring first or check with Sara about the colors (they're very different in person than on screen). Rae's a ring-keeper too and is always helping us out.
It'll be fine. Hey Jenn, I had found a link to the Plastkhaar store somewhere on here but lost it. When I go to the site I can't find the link to the synth hair. If you have it can you post it?
I've only had experience mixing synths in falls, but I don't see why it would matter if the textures are similar. It's not like you're going to have cuticles that catch or anything. You might want to take a small pinch of each and mix them together just to see what it looks like before you install.
So I'm getting my first synth ever this weekend (I know I've mentioned this a million times now). Anyway, I'm planning to use half Dome, half PlastikHaar (primarily because I like the PlastikHaar length and texture better, but Dome has a lighter color that I need to add to the mix).
Does anyone see any potential pitfalls with mixing brands? Should I keep all the PH on the lower half, for example, and just use the Dome above that, or can I alternate freely strand by strand? Can I actually mix the hair within the strands themselves, or is that just asking for trouble?
