That answered two questions right away. I can do the shrinkies with it. COOL!
That curl link is awesome. I'm bookmarking that...it's just what I was wanting. That's the cool thing about this synth, what you see is what you get and it seems to be the same all the time and not all these variations like "human" hair. Don't you hate that about some of these hair sites? They all use the same photos and they're selling it with different types of hair.
I'm sure I'll be trying this. Now it's just a matter of deciding what kind, where to get it and maybe hookin' up with ya'all and seeing if you wanna do a group thing for cheaper shipping?
oh....if you look at plastikhaar website (not her online store) look under the hair extensions category...traditional and tied in techniques youll see pictures of some of the different curls...unfortunately theres no description of what size curl is in each picture. But I ll bet if you emailed her she'd tell you. Here is that link: http://www.plastikhaar.ch/flash/index.php?lan=en
That link is so helpful, Sherrie--thank you, thank you! I had no idea there were that many textures available. I'm having a hard time envisioning how they'd look on a whole head, though--need to give that more thought.
I hear you ladies...Ive been wearing human hair extensions for about 4 years now and it seems like an ongoing quest to find good hair. It would be great to say bye bye to the human hair frustrations and the COST! Ive been a poster on the quinnster board for a long time & Ive been eyeballing the synthetic for some time now but just in the past few weeks my curiosity is peaking! Im trying to find some of the same answers... as far as textures & curls, how the different brands compare, if you can blowdry curl etc.... if I find any info I will post it here. Here is something about the plastikhaar curl patterns that you may be interested in. Look further down the post and there is a picture of the different curls. http://p080.ezboard.com/fhair18356frm10.showMessage?topicID=2746.topic
I'm obsessed, too. Gotta find out a little more about the length, textures, and such, but I'd be so happy to kiss the human-hair saga good-bye once and for all.
What I need to figure out are the styling issues. People have mentioned "steaming" or using a steamer to touch up the ends when they get ratty. Do you have any idea what this involves? I also understand it can be blow-dried into shape, but you have to know what you're doing (still confused about this point).
I'm fairly certain you can use synth hair with Shrinkies though. Has anyone mentioned this on Quinnster's?
OK, is it just me or is anyone else dying to have this? Is Plastikhaar comparable?
::wringing hands:: Who here among us will be the first to get it? Mwahahahaha!
The colors they offer totally rock. What is the length? Does it come in a weft? Can you make strands out of it? Can you shrinkie it? How much is it in US dollars because I don't know francs from shinola? What's a 25mm wave and what's a 50mm wave? How come I am dying to know all this all the time?
