Hi there....you had mentioned in another thread that you found a supplier for silicone-lined micro rings that was even less expensive than International Wig....can you share this information with us?  Thanks!

Ok, you caught me in a good mood, so I'll spill the beans here...

The supplier is Korean, and they require a purchase minimum of 2000 pieces, 500 of each color.  When I ordered them, they were selling for .05 a piece.

The man I have been dealing with is named Chris and he is very nice and good with customer service.  I received my order from Korea to CA in less than 1 week.

They only take bank transfers for payment, which seems to be the standard when dealing with merchants in Asia.

Thank You so much for posting your source. I have been searching for them for awhile. I was getting a little worried when shrinkies.net had them on sale that she wouldn't be selling them any more.

Thank You! Thank You! Thank You!!!!!!

Any good sources for the shrink tubes with adhesive?? I emailed  Henan Beauty Hair Products Hairtohair.com but I didn't get a response back yet? Any one deal with them?

Chris sent me a sample of their hair.  It looks and feels good, but you never know until it's put on someone if it's any good.  I haven't put it on anyone yet.

metalgirl - thanks for sharing the info.  I was curious of these but i still don't think i will order any.  It would work out about $100 for 2000 of them plus shipping which is still really good but i dont have anyone asking for them so probably wouldnt shift them.

I noticed the heated razor tool on their too.  Is this where amm order's hers?

oh ment to add.... gerrigirl  I have spoken to Henan before and their prices are really good.  I havent actually ordered from them though but appartently they sell products to connect 2 hair well according to mr Du Charel.

They req a minimum order of 10 per product.  If your thinking of ordering hair from them, get a sample first just incase.

Given they only accept bank wire transfers, the cost of doing that cuts into the savings a bit but it is still the least expensive I can find.  I plan on placing a large order within the next week or so...

PM me if anyone wants me to order extra for them so that there is only one wire transfer charge...PM me how many you want, your email address, which color etc.  I will then paypal invoice you and pass the cost savings along!  Shipping should be minimal...

I agree the wire transfer does make the total cost of the purchase more expensive.  My bank charges me $40 for each wire transfer I do.

I would like to, but I don´t know if the shipping to Denmark eats up the savings in the wire transfer.

I´ll lot in to the price of wire transfer at my bank.

Synne - Just let me know what you want...how many and which color.  If I post it to you regular mail it should not be very expensive.  Just give me your address and I will send them to you...I'll let you know what the postage is...

I just called my bank, and because I have homebanking on my computer wiretransfer cost $7,5, so I don´t think that ordering together will save me anything this time.

Anyway I thank you for you offer Aphrodite .

Shel -  D-Lux hair is great so far...holds a curl like you wouldn't believe!  Kristin has pics of me and I hope she posts them...she's really busy so it may take a few days...I'll bug her about it...I'll take some pics in a couple weeks to report back how it is holding up...

No dryness like the LUSH hair had...the color choices are amazing as well...

I know, I was suprices to. The last time I made a Wire Transfer I paid $40 at the bank.
Its because they save the work by an emplye when I do the transfer my self I think. 

Aphro: I am allso impaitent awaiting your pics .
