Just thought of something. . . I mentioned that I have an import business. I get *great* rates on incoming international shipments. . . I have things shipped to me internationally *ALL THE TIME* via FedEx and UPS, and it takes about 4 days. I know how to clear customs in a hearbeat (as well as the tariffs/codes for everything which I'm sure Sara knows too).
There is absolutely NO REASON why we should have to wait 3 weeks or even 2 weeks for anything from Sara!!
I'm going to let her know that and see if she'll ship using my FedEx number. Are you interested??
OK, I'll see what I come up with today, and I'll let them know the order is coming from you for a zillion color rings, and they can use my FedEx Number. . .

Hi there - I'd also like a natural color ring, please, and i also use paypal.
p.s. i ordered some plastikhaar a week or so ago....love love love it. my conservative friends and family were shocked it wasn't "real"; better than any human hair (particularly for the cost) i've had...i have a mullet thing happening right now as i'm doing it little by little with shrinkies, but when all's done i'll post a pic.

I just ordered 6 bags of hair from Sara (guessed on the colors, what the heck. I ordered several shades of light brown, and 3 blondes).
Sara said that yes she can ship FedEx using my number and use the tariff code I gave her (there is no tariff on synthetic hair but customs wants to know and it speeds up getting the product.)
YIPPEEEEEE!! THANKS y'all. I just looked through the thread that Kalika did on her AMAZING hair and I am really really excited to do this with shrinkies!!!
Amm, I told Sara that when she received an order from "Anna" in the USA for about 30 color rings, to ship using my FedEx number. The order will be to you in about 3 or 4 days.
Today's the last day to put yourself down for color rings and then I will ask for PayPal and snail mail payments. Please don't send money now or email me yet. ALL payments will be due and/or in my possession by next Friday and then we will order. Any $ not here by Friday will not get in on the order. Sorry but we all want our rings asap! Thanks!
I'm pretty certain I've converted. Not to get political or pedantic her WHATSOEVER, but I really agree with what Sara says on her website (posted below). Every time I had human hair put on my head I really wondered about the woman it came from. Believe me this NEVER stopped me from using human hair and I don't have any judgments about it. But this really speaks to me:
"I work exclusively with synthetic hair, because of ethical reasons! There are many facts and ideologies to underline this. I wrote my diploma work about hair and therefore I’m quite knowledgeable about our hair, its meaning and the stories it tells us. 60 cm of real hair lives about 10 years around and with a person. Hair is always with us. Even years later it is still possible to tell how we felt, what we consumed (drugs) and a lot of other biological facts are also still visible.
Apart from that it plays a significant role in black and white magic and in the voodoo cult. Genuine hair is available in various qualities, which can be divided into different regions, European and various Asian hair. Unfortunately trade with genuine hair is often unfair, you never know where it comes from. There are rumours that it is stolen from temples where it was used as a sacrificial offering.
Sometimes it comes from prisons and war camps, sometimes even from dead people. Hair is a dead material, dead human horn, like our fingernails. I would like to make people aware of the fact that wearing genuine hair from other people means to adorn oneself with borrowed plumes, as well as wearing somebody else’s memories. I support synthetic hair ! No it is not real and you may see this. Hair is a personal thing and not a second hand product.
You don’t pluck out a peacocks feathers!"

Ditto. I wore human extensions for a few years, so I'm not at all judging anyone who does, but the more I read about it, the more uncomfortable I became with the idea. There's a real imperialism about the trade--i.e., women from third-world countries selling their hair for pennies or nothing so that U.S. and European women can wear it--that leaves a bad taste in my mouth. I hope this synth switch will be permanent, because I really don't want to contribute to that sort of thing, either. :)
