QuoteReplyTopic: Ebonyline Curls **PICTURE** Posted: April 05 2005 at 9:29am
Just want to verify what Sherrie (you know, the one who is indistinguishable from me and all , btw Sherrie, what size are your fake boobies? Maybe mine are the same ) said about the EbonyOnline (and HotStuff) thermal: It DEFINITELY starts behaving more like HH over time. Go figure!!
Hot rollers RULE! And to think of all the Big Hair they gave us back in the day. I STILL have a setof Clairol Kindness hot rollers (velvet covered, cutting edge at the time) I got in about 1980 when I was 5 (just kidding) - they still work, they get nice and hot, and they curl that WaWa like nobody's business! They work better and get hotter than the new Conair ones I just bought.
Thanks for the update on the Ebonyline. I thought I read Sherrie said it's just like HSF in texture and behavior - good to know since I have gobs of HSF ready to go in.
You hit the nail on the hot roller top. One of the things we go through almost every single day at HB.com on the phone is trying to explain to callers that the 2005 versions of hot rollers do not get even 50% as hot as the 1980s version. Of course it has to do with a variety of factors including the fact that consumers had a tendency to get nasty burns on their fingertips and scalps and the appliance companies were not keen on getting sued plus they took the manufacturing offshore and hot is different overseas than in the US. :-)
I still have my original Kindness hot rollers w/out the velvet. So I am really aging myself now.
That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger or drives you totally insane. :-)
delin - the loose curl was made with a standard barrel curling iron. I dampened the hair and it smoked in the iron just like it was supposed to. It wasn't what I was going for but I thought it looked just like the 50mm.

Syren...the hotstuff is the only one I havent tried yet or seen so I dont know about how the texture compares or behavior.....sheesh we are giving our hair human characteristics.....whats that word called(when you give human characteristics to non living objects!) time for bed Im thinking too much!LOL
It's called 'anthropomorphizing.'
You're welcome!
Hey wait. Sherrie, didn't you say that Ebonyline was exactly the same texture, color, behaviour, etc. as the HSF only in a totally different package? No? Then maybe it was Fina. Yeah, it was Fina. Sorry. You blondes all look alike! You know I'm kidding. You're gorgeous.

Amm... the ebonyline thermal also gets easier to curl after wearing it for a little while. Mine was more stubborn to curl at first, but now it curls the same as my human extensions. I am at 5 weeks with the ebonyline thermal and its still holding up pretty well. Looks better straight right now than curled though. The ends are a bit fried ( about the bottem 1/8 of an inch) it smooth out straight but looks a little more frazzled when curled. I suppose I could just trime the ends, just havent done it yet!
Looks "H-O-T, HOT Once you start you just can't stop! It's HOT! HEY, HEY, It's HOT!" Sorry...I just reverted to my HS cheerleading days! And don't pass judgement...I was a "bad" cheerleader
As always...thanks for your updates!
Yeah, Eisblau is great. I'm dyin to get my hands on Turkis!
Thank you to Jenny who sent me this Ebonyline Adore Thermal. This is the #613 and it's very pretty.
The hair is unwashed and still banded. I was able to get two distinct looks out of it. The top curl I believe is the twin sister curl to the 50mm PH. The bottom is from a flocked roller. The middle is of course how the hair is naturall; smooth and straight. Pardon the ends, I was in a hurry and didn't take the best care in rolling.
Ebonyline is a touch coarser than WaWa. When you rub it between your thumb and forefinger, it has a slight different feel but almost not even enough to mention. It's amazingly soft.
I don't find it as easy to curl as the WaWa with an iron but the flocked roller kicks butt on it.
Jenny also sent me some swatches of PH colors in Barbie Pink (yow!) Burgundy Rot which is awesome, Kirschrot which has to be seen to be believed (take it out into the sun and look at those amazing strands shine!) and what has fast become my favorite though I wouldn't know how to wear - the Eisblau which is the rockinest look of shimmery silvery soft blue and turquoise. I can't stop staring at it. THANK YOU JENNY!!!
