Quote Your contributions to this board are unparalleled! Your in depth research, experiments, amazing photo documentation...legendary. You've unearthed sources from god knows where and made hair supplies available we could only have imagined getting a year ago. You've raised the bar for online hair resources so far, people copy you just to keep up.
 
 Both of you ladies have taught me so much, given me encouragement, humor a great new hobby!
 
I remember when I first came to this board how in awe I was of all the new lingo and methods of hair extensions.It took me a few months before I could figure out how to put a ring on a threader and I still can't get a picture of myself with two mirrors for the life of me!
 
 I wondered if and when that time would come when I had  enough knowledge to pass on what I learned on this forum. It's because of you both and others like Sherrie that took the time to explain everything over and over that I can help along the next newbies!

Oh girl please! Your contributions to this board are unparalleled! Your in depth research, experiments, amazing photo documentation...legendary. You've unearthed sources from god knows where and made hair supplies available we could only have imagined getting a year ago. You've raised the bar for online hair resources so far, people copy you just to keep up. From pretipping to Plastikhaar, shrinkies, thermofiber, to high quality human hair...all of it was really fun! You made it fun and affordable.

Amm, you deserve all the success you get and more. No one puts their money where their mouth is like you do.

Thank you! And thank YOU, Elvira, my fellow scientist & researcher.

*Somehow* I'm still managing my fulltime career AND the soaping AND the extensions so I'm still hanging in there with everything. My friends think my days have 48 hours in them. LOL! :)

Thanks again everyone for being part of this great forum and sharing all your valuable insight on hair!

I really have learned so much from Amm since I first came to this board over a year ago. Her attention to detail is remarkable.

Thanks Amm for all you have shared and I'm glad that you didn't give up selling hair extension supplies! The newbies need people like you!

I'd definitely recommend Amm's soap to anyone and everyone- I've tried about 5 different kinds of their soap and loved it all. :) I have super-sensitive dry skin, and handmade soap is the only way to go.

Sorry chick, if i come across another source i will let you know.  Cant believe the price difference in quotes.  They seemed very friendly but it took 3 emails to get the answers to my questions and with what you have said i think i will give them a miss. 

Imagine switching the hair quality with your next order, thats very sneeky and bad business.  They say their hair is the best in the world but i guess in general that a supplier selling hair described as supreme quality etc is only the finest in their experience / dealings and doesnt mean it is actually the best ( i have a list of many suppliers as examples of this  but im saying nothing)

Thank you for the address, I already know this supplier. I bought the first shrinkies from him, and they cost 7 Euro per 225 pieces. So you got a different price?! But he has only the short ones, and I loooove the extended length.

Also he sells microrings with the silicone ring inside, 500 pieces 25 Euros (yes, he charges Euros!)....

At all he is very expensive, but the dumbwordthings are really great (but so short)....

For the hair: I ordered 25 kg with a friend from him. The first order was great, fine hair and felt also great after few times washing. The second order we did, the hair was sh*t, crap. It tangled after 3 weeks of wearing and he only said: mmh, maybe we got also a bad delivery...grrrrr... never order hair from him, but will ask for the dumbwordthings if he has them in a longer size...

Thanx Chick!

try http://www.fortune21c.com/hairexpert.htm for the adhesive lined s*****ies.  I havent used this supplier but they say they have them.  Their prices are $10 per jar of 450 pieces.  The pictures they sent me could be of the longer length ones but it's hard to say as the pictures not very clear.  Either way i would recommed getting a sample off them first.

Where can we find the shrinkies?
I pay for 800 pieces (the long ones) now 42 Euros.
Can I get them anywhere cheaper?

I have found a UK manufacturer who has sent me a sample and he stated that quite a few hair extension companies have contacted him over this product.

Congradulations on your contracts Amm.  It's a shame your site has to go as it was really successful but goodluck on the new venture.

 

www.drlocks.net do a salon sized jar of shrinkies (with approx 1350 tubes) for $39.99.  They have the adhesive in them too.

Heres a couple of links I found with a quick search:

this one says they have the adhesive lining
http://www.shearessenceproducts.com/100extu.html

this one doesnt say anything about a lining, but it does say youll need to
remove residue from your hair... so i'm guessing they have it
