 Well the shrinky's From IM were realy bad as we expected. I will save you all from wasting your money. The black ones were realy bad they felt diferent and stayed in OH 5 min!!! the clear ones lasted 24 hours. I had a feeling they wouldn't work but I just had to try! So save your bukcs and skip this one. It is sad that they would eaven try to sell them. And to have to add adhesive would just be to much work I mean come on I'm allready pretiping hair, tips too no thanks! I can't wait to order AMM's Today. I did hear you were up and running

Well after asking Summer at IW a few more questions , the answer is they use hair tipped with keritin. So if you add an adhesive like keritin tipped hair wich is what they sell then they will work but if you want reusable hair than know way! She said they will corect the info on the site so that that is explained. |

| I really dont think that they will hold much better with keratin tipped hair either. Ive pretipped with keratin, latex and liquid gold. All with pretty much the same results with shrinkies. The keratin doesnt really make them hold much differently than any other pretipping glue. I think the shrinkies that dont have an adhesive inside them just dont work well! |

I totally agree with Sherrie; what you tipped with wouldn't make a
difference. If IWig wants to continue selling shrinkies, they should
think about getting some adhesive-lined ones fast. I've never heard of
them working before on anyone, although many have tried, and it has
nothing to do with whether the installer is licensed or not. I also find it hard to believe they've gotten a lot of good feedback and reorders, considering that non-adhesive tubing doesn't work and they've only been selling them for a very short time. At least you can return them and get a refund. :) |

| I thought the infamous mark Barrington's shrinks didn't have glue and that metagirl swears by them? I could also be right off my rocker. |

| Oh, no. I think the MB shrinks have an adhesive lining. Although I could be off my rocker, too. :) |
