Well, the 50mm stays pretty silky, imo. I'm not sure the straight would
ultimately be silkier, but there may be other advantages to using the
straight, as it's probably easier to handle in terms of blending, etc.
I like using the 50mm because I can rock that initial wave for the
first five days or so, then rock the loosened wave after another 5
days, so I've got 10 days of no styling at the beginning. But after
that, I always do have to reset it. I may try the straight at some
point, too. :)
I've wondered the same thing myself (about the silky PH vs wavy). If it's a blonde moment we're all having one, lol. For what it's worth my wawa feels softest right after I steam it totally straight, but crunchier after it's waved - even if I do it with steam. So curling silky PH may do the same thing. Just a guess, though.
Well I was just thinking....that if it goes straight anyway, wouldnt we be better off to start with a silkier PH to start with? Would it stay silkier and nicer, longer? Or would 'setting' a wave in the straight "F" up the soft and silkier straight hair? Am I having blonde moments here or does anyone follow my train of thought here.......
Good one Sherrie - that's something to think about.
When I get my PH, I have to razor cut it, right? How do you do this? Remember I only wear one piece on the bottom of my head and I usually cut my pieces straight across. What do I do with the PH?

ok....I have a question. Mochachip says the PH straight is silkier than the wavy. And I already knew that the 50mm felt better than the 28mm in softness. Since the wavy goes straight anyway, and then everyone 'resets' their curl by either rollers, boinks, braids etc..... would we be better off just using the straight PH?
I've definitely noticed that the superlong PH can tangle when you're
blending it, or even separating a chunk from the rubber band. But in
terms of wearing it, I have very little tangling, and my hair's quite
long, like 30 inches.
I've had much more tangling with human hair actually, and human-hair
tangles are different than synth ones, imo. With human, it takes a long
time to carefully detangle the hair and not damage it. With synth, I
find that it doesn't really tangle per se; it just bunches up a bit
every so often, so I spray it with the Dome Care, and use a wide tooth
comb, and it's tangle-free in no time. I find synth a lot easier to
care for. :)
I've been using PH on my clients for a couple of months now. No complaints from them at all.
I do notice that it tangles quite easy due to the length of it, so I
usually cut about 4-5" off which makes it more managable when blending.
My clients aren't really "butt length" types anyway.
I'm in the process of installing my own first set with PH, so we'll see how that goes.
I've had every brand of good synth hair so far.
Synth never feels like human hair at all but looks much better in my opinion.
Plus with the color options, you can't beat it.
my hair is stick straight.It looks like what others have to use a straight iron to get.Except I hate it and love curly hair,lol.You always want what you dont have.
I don't think it's scratchy, but that's because I only wear synth (and
for a while, I wore lower-quality synth than PH). I will say I don't
think it's so much "scratchy" as it is "stiff". If you compare PH to
cheap human that's been washed a few times and frizzed up, then the
human will definitely feel like steel wool, but PH will just feel a
little heavy. So, you know, good synth is definitely better than bad
human.
I'll readily admit that it doesn't feel quite the same as human, but
it's still worth a try. Doing some highlights in PH is a great idea;
you'll only have to buy one bag's worth, so it's no big loss if you
don't like it.
that was pretty brave of her to tell you so.I would have been so mad. If your hair isnt looking up to par you dont want strangers pointing it out,lol.And $70 for any of the clip on pony's is crazy.There either made from crappy bss human,or crappy synth. I did once experience synth wet once.Believe me it was an experience.I was wearing a wig cause I shaved my head(STUPID HOME BLEACH).So anyhow I went swimming.I love swimming,But there was no way I was going bald.So dummy me went with the wig on.It felt like seaweed as soon as it got wet.And it never got better after drying.It was a cheap wig to begin with.I guess I was just hoping that maybe the better synth would be different.
