$33 U.S. for priority or CHF? I thought it was a lot cheaper than that. :)

Great! I got one pack, but if its 40 inches, I plan on cutting it in half prior to tipping.

Now, to wait..

I have no patience but couldn't justify 33.00 for priority.

Rose: now that I've got your picture in front of me, your hair looks very similar to Fichte.

Rose: You might also want to ask Sara about sample packs. She mentioned that she wanted to offer them a while ago, but I haven't heard an update. It might be a great solution for people who want a few streaks in lots of different colors. :)

Dang, I saw this after I made the purchase.

Does anyone else have trouble with the currency staying in US? Mine kept going back to Francs and so I ended up using a currency converter as once it got to the paypal checkout I couldn't understand a word and it was in Francs.

How many times can I say Francs in a post? Many, I guess.

I started worrying about the cost so I just got:

1 x kirschrot () = 16.50SFr
	 
1 x chilli () = 16.50SFr
	 
1 x fichte () = 16.50SFr
	 
1 x haselnuss () = 16.50SFr

I then emailed Sara and asked if I could have a sample of hell rosa, rosa and vampire violet if she had any lying around.

I wonder if there is any interested in a synth hair trades thread? Until I get the PH, which Im sure I wont use all of, I have a packet of 613/27 or whatever that is from vixenwings, a coupla #27's and 2.5 #30's.

I'd love to have a few streaks of blondes, reds, pinks, purples, blues, well I guess all of them.

I'll start one and see..Cant hurt, eh?

Yeah, it's strange isn't it? When the light hits it, it's pretty incredible. I think it'd be great blended--really well blended--with another color. :)

I'm seconding the Bronze idea from Jenny.   I was thinking it could be amazing on you before I got to her suggestion about the metallicity...

You're welcome. I hope it helps.

Do let us know what you end up going with.

By the way, the Bronze color almost seems to have a metallic sheen to it; I've never seen anything quite like it. Has anyone else who has the PH rings noticed this?

Hey Rose,

I would definitely recommend getting the 28mm, too. Fina was able to preserve that wave for awhile, so you might want to pick her brain about it. Be careful with the curling iron, though; you can use one, but be sure to do plenty of strand tests beforehand, and you may want to use perm papers on the ends to protect them a bit. Hot rollers are really better for the hair.

Kirschrot is one of my favorites, by the way. It's just a beautiful color.

I think the color mix you have now is this (keep in mind that some of these have flash and others don't):



Here are some other reds, too:

Rose, don't worry that the 28mm will wash out...my experience is that it may, but not right away that is for sure. And from the two bags I have looking at me, its texture does match your own.

I am trying to decide on fun accent colours. I am having a heck of a time trying to get some rockin' reds. Anyone have kirschrot?

So far in my cart I have: haselnuss, fichte, chili and hell rosa

Does anyone with the ring (my precious! my precious!) have any other red - auburn/copper PH colour ideas?

Have we decided that 28mm is not the way to go? I want curly but if its going to wash out immediately, I will just curl it with an iron.

Ok, Thanks,

Rose
