QuoteReplyTopic: Hair piggy strikes again Posted: August 22 2005 at 3:07am
I really should change my screen name to hairpiggy! I just bought some of that REALHair and then I go and pay for some more.
ANyway, my friend and hairdresser and a few women she does all went in and order a few Kilograms of SKMHair after I told them about indian hair bought straight from the supplier--and of course I had to snag a few of the curly bundles.
Here's my review on it. Some of it is REALLY nice. They ordered a bunch of wavy and that stuff was really pretty and soft and shiny. There was also some curly in the order, but the curly wasn't very curly. All of it was nicer than indian hairs. Here's the bundles I nabbed.
The bunches were funny sizes that would be hard to sell, ranging from 3 oz to 4.3 oz. Strange enough, the curly didn't have any split ends but the many of the straighter bunches had had tiny little splits. We didn't get as many bunches as planned when we ordered. We had it all added up how many 4 oz bunches we should get but it seemed we were way off. This might have had to do with the strange size of the bunches. Don't ask for lighter brown hair. It seemed all the lighter brown hair had those little strange split ends. Although some had split ends, you can't really see them in pictures or even when you look at it, only when you hold it to light and see this pinsized different colored hair at the bottom. Also I found some nits and grey hairs. But the hair is exceptionally more beautiful and snaggle free than indian hairs and had less dead frizzy ends.
Even though the split ends were really short because the hair is single drawn they are difficult to trim because the split ends are at different levels. Most of the hair was really beautiful and no tangling at all. Some of the silkiest prettiest bunches would be so beautiful and then have those little binky split ends. It was strange. Although the hair was very clean and fresh smelling, some had nits. ANother annoying thing about the nitshells is that they just handtied them right in, so there would be nits handtied up near the weft and hard to get out. The hair was all zigzag hand tied. It didnt shed much but the weft was all one long weft. You would have to cut it, which means you have to seal all the ends yourself and if you don't, they really unravel super easily.
Buying in bulk is a pain in the butt. Now I understand why people jack up the prices.
There isn't much of the hair left. There are a few packs of the silkier ones I was talking about with the tiny little split ends that I could sell if anyone is interested. Most of it is all pretty long. I have photos of 2 packs of the hair that I'm looking to sell really cheap. (Maybe $40 or something--it's 24 inches long.) It's really pretty, but like I said it has these little split ends at the bottom that take forever to snip off. I think there is also a nice deep wavy package left that nobody wanted cuz it had nit shells and all of us are WAY sick of picking out nitshells.
Here's an example of the silkier wavy I was talking about.
Anyway SKM is nice hair and the price not bad if you buy bulk. I would watch out about ordering it because if you have a lot leftover you can't use, it might be hard to get rid of on ebay because of the size of the packs varying so much. There was enough of us to split the hair up so it wasnt a problem.
They say their minimum is 5Kg but another woman here says she ordered 1 or 2 kg. He went down to 3KG. I don't know if it has to do with what mood his is in or what. No credit cards you have to western union them the money.
hey the number three pic of for sale stuff looks like it might be the
right wave for me. Is it 24" after wefting? and have you
washed it yet? Cause if not it's likely it would get curlier and
that would be no good for me.
So far I only have pics of 2 of the packs available. All the picture on the link I posted were of the same bundle. Its after washing but I also brushed it out a bit.
I'm only selling a few packs of it. There really isn't much left.
Oh I like REAL Hair a lot more. SKM isnt curly enough for my liking and the hairs are bigger around. Real hair is more like nature girl. SKM is more like getting a bunch of indianhairs.com best batch of hair. REALHair didn't seem as "indian" SKM hair looks and feels very indian. REalHair also seems like somebody really went through and pick out the ultimate hair and prepared it. SKM has some greys, nits and occasional split ends. But RealHair had prices like naturegirl and SKM had prices closer to IndianHairs.com
hi im new posting on this board, but I do post on BHM...
Cherry the hair that your selling how much is it in ounces? Is this also the hair with the nits still in it? Also when u order in the bulk w/others how much are you paying....I would like to be able to do that because it would save me money since i am a college student...
Im not sure how much it was an ounce. They price it buy KILOGram. When we figured it out we thought that the 24 inch was going to be around $35 a pack. But it was more than that because we did get less bundles. Not sure how much, need to do the math. Probably somewhere around $45. They ordered some 18 too but I can't remember how much that was because I wasn't interested in it. Some of the hair has nits in it. Some of it doesn't. Some had absolutely no nits, some had 1 or 2 and a few had a lot that were a pain in the butt. When you order bulk you'll probably have to come up with a lot of money at first. I think our order was around $1000. Like I said, the hair was a lot nicer than indian hairs even with the occasional greys and nits. I believe a lot of indianhairs hair has nits on it it too.

ok well being that I suck big time in math..kilograms is how many pounds? Was it a lot of yall I mean if its a lot of people then its really not that bad. I wish I could afford NG, BLISS or EP but right now imma have to go with what I can afford..lol it seems many ladies on this board and BHM have a sh*tload of money to spend on hair, and I just dont have that right now, but instead of my spending 60+ a pack on BSS hair I might as well get something atleast a TAD bit better then that. I was wearing platinum milky way and it was good for a little while..then u know what happens next, so I feel that I can keep a weave longer if I get some type of indian hair. How long is the hair that your selling, because u said it has some bad ends then that means it would have to be cut....
Ok Cherry, call me Hairpiggy #2. Just placed my order with Real hair.
Hope it comes quick! like Friday!! I ended up ordering 6 of the Curly and just 2
of the curly kinky wefts. So hopefully I didn't mess up, hope the curly
is truly curly. I was a lil scared to order too much curly kinky
because that one looked kinda big on website. Tho yours looked nice in
longer lengths. But the other pix u posted of shorter curly kinky
looked frizzy. Maybe i can do a mix of curly and curly kinky/.. hope so
Kilogram is a bit over 3 lbs I believe. The hair is 24 inches. I think most of the 18 inch ones are gone now. Have to double check.
haha Koffee. I was worried the curly wouldnt be curly enough, especially in longer lengths. I really love the kinky. Did you get a receipt? I didn't when I reordered more. They haven't answered my email for a few days. But I did get that first order in a timely manner.

o ok well, thanks for the info, that is ok I will just browse around and see if anyone would like to sell me any "good" hair, since I know u said on the other board u really dont like to "part" with your hair..but um thanks anyway.

No receipt yet? didn't you say you emailed someone and they told you
when your order was shipped? If so, what was that email addy, because I
would like to followup on my order too. Even tho my credit card will
protect me , I'd like some kinda confirmation that they have my
$$ . And I'm worried the curly
won't be curly enough either.. but i had to try it. I got some
kinky mixed in w/ the order, so if i hate the curly and can't
mix, I'll order more kinky i guess.
Girlnextdoor, What kind of texture are you looking for? There are a few bundles left that nobody claims that we were hoping to sell. Let me know what type of hair you were looking for and I'll see what there is left.
yes the first time I received no receipt and emailed them and they promptly answered and send me a receipt and told me when to expect the hair. The second order I am still waiting for them to answer.
