how do you sleep and 'do it' in your exte

Just wondering,

do other members plait their extension hair when they go to sleep in it? what else can you do to minimuse tangles when you are sleeping in your hair


also when you do the wild thing - do you leave your hair out, or plait it

Im especially interested in how ppl avoid tangling synthetic extensions?

I used to braid my hair at night but then I stopped and it's fine.

I agree.. and I don't do anything terribly elaborate when I do tie my hair down.. I simply use my Silky the Cap™ to keep my hair smooth and in order..

Generally if I am wrapping or covering my hair at night I do it "after" sex.. I find my hair is in MUCH better shape in the morning when I "organize" it at night. Usually NO combing of any kind is required.. Usually I take my hair down and it's shake and go.. (I love those mornings!)

Glad to hear it..

If anyone is interested, you can buy the Silky the Cap™ caps (my preferred sleep cap) from Sherrie's store.. The woman who created these caps is a small business woman here in Los Anglese. These caps used to be available only locally in the Los Angeles area (through a small number of local businesses & salons).. However, the owner's starting to branch out and I suspect they will be available from more vendors soon (I was lucky.. I got to buy mine DIRECTLY from the source!) I am VERY bullish on the product ever since meeting the owner and seeing the product in action through my own usage.. In the meantime, you can check out Silky the Cap™ by clicking here.

Ummm since I don't OWN Silky the Cap™ or HE101 and since I actually participate and contribute to this forum, I don't see where the comparison between me and Zephyr comes from.. On the other hand Zephyr actually OWNS a hair extensions and hair supply business.. If I recall her ONLY contribution around this forum was advertising for her business..

Last I heard around this camp (and others like it..) there were no issues with members making recommendations about products we like and where others can get 'em from..

Mean?? I didn't realize that my post had a second meaning.. I wrote exactly what I meant.. I buy products from LOTS of vendors including Sherrie.. I talk about ALL of the vendors I do business with.. Is there a point to this??

Personally, I don't mind advertising, so it is a moot point for me.

People are free to make that ASSumption all they want, but to ASSume that is to ASSume that somehow Sherrie is ASKING me to advertise for her, and that I am getting something in return for my endorsement. Now if someone were to actually make THAT accusation DIRECTLY to me, I'm not sure I should bother dignifying that kind of foolish accusation with a response. I post based on my OWN feelings about the products/vendors I like PERIOD.. If anyone feels that my recommendations have an ulterior motive, then they need to ask me DIRECTLY about my alleged motives versus making an ASSumption..

For the record helping Sherrie out on her site is no different than what I do for A LOT OF my friend's who also own small businesses.. Helping Sherrie doesn't make Sherrie's business MY business. If that was the truth, then it did it would mean that helping my friends Donna, Kim, and Richard with IT issues and such in their businesses makes me a principal or an owner of their respective businesses as well.. Now that is a silly ASSumption since clearly helping someone out with their business doesn't automatically assign that person an owner's share in ANY business... If we used this logic, most of us (who are not self employed) would OWN the companies we work for, and we all KNOW that's not true don't we??

I've become friends with A LOT of the vendors I do business with.. Many of my friends became my clients, and many of my clients also became friends.. BIG DEAL!!!

Great!!! On these points we agree.. (Although anything we post here is still ultimately at the discretion of the forum administrators -- they are free to disallow ANY postings they deem unwanted on their forums)

However, you made an accusation that I was doing something other than sharing my opinion (i.e the comparison to Zephyr )

I'm not sure you do.. I didn't like when you made the comparison because there is no real similarity there, and it's NOT the truth..

I totally agree with you Kristie M!! I love hearing reccomendations, exchanging info on what works and what doesn't. It helps us all to save money and avoid hair disasters.I have learnt so much from reading these forums, its been a real life saver!!
