Check this out girls....it looks identical to the one I use for shrinkies. Exept that I paid WAY more money than this! I cant say for sure if its the same exact one, but it sure looks like it! http://salon.wimexbeauty.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=68631&Category_Code=7705 - http://salon.wimexbeauty.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=P ROD&Product_Code=68631&Category_Code=7705 |

| Whoa...that IS cheap! Is it dual sided? For that price it can't possibly have a temp control. But for that price, it would be a great backup item in case your primary wand blows out in the middle of a critical install. |

That is insane. Can't even get that price wholesale. If it's dual-sided
and multi-temp, it's a winner. What brand is it? Might be able to find out more info from another site if we can get the brand. ------------- http://shrinkies.net - Extension Supplies & Virgin Brazilian Hair |

| Will have to email them with questions. But it definitely looks like its dual sided. It looks identical to mine which does not have temp control but works perfect with Amms shrinkies. The price is $34.00 Can this be for real? |

thats not dual sided? Both sides of the wand dont heat up? It sure looks like it has two heating arms?

Hiya, I didn't get around today to put up some auctions, will do it on sunday.... I have the new microrings, who have screws inside, so it prevent slipping out. There is no damage of hair, as I am selling these for over 1 year, and never had a complain...And I also sell micro locks in black, dark brown, light brown, blond and red. Micro Locks are only in size M availible, Microrings in all colors and sizes like S, M and L. (black, dark brown, medium brown, light brown, dark blonde, light blonde, red are always in stock)-. At this moment, I only have the fusion wands with a german plug. But it is also vor 110 v, so you can put a UK or US plug onto. If you have questions, just email me mailto:info@american-hairextensions.de - info@american-hairextensions.de

Rings with metal grooves on the inside and heat wands you have to find the plugs for?
How did we get so lucky. And we have to wait all the way until Sunday for this? ------------- http://shrinkies.net - Extension Supplies & Virgin Brazilian Hair |

amm, I've actually seen mixed reviews on the grooves on the inside of the ring thing. It sounds sketchy as all get out. I mean seriously, doesn't that sound like a recipe for disaster worse than an inexperienced person with one of those funky hairlocs openers? But I remember someone on Quinn's board reviewing them positively. DOn't remember a whole lot was maybe a year ago? I'll see what I can't hunt down. And you'll definitely be eaiting til at least sunday before I actually follow through on that. |

I will order some heat wands with plugs for uk and usa, but I am afraid of the shipping costs from Germany to USA. They are horrible. And it's not a big thing to put an UK or US plug on it. Some suppliers only send chinese plugs But don't laugh about the microrings with screw inside, not grooves! They really work great, just watch my feedbacks. They have a small screw inside, and they hold better than the old microrings. And the screw is coated, so no metal will damage the own hair. I have few clients who wearing them for 4 and 5 month now, and only 3-8 strands are falling out. Don't laugh amm, I want to order shrinkies again without an negative feedback from you..

Can someone post a picture of this screw thing? I don't understand how there would be a screw with no grooves.

Jenny, I think the difference here on screws and ridges is simply that the ridge is a continuous corkscrew. And y'all don't have to trust my opinion. And I haven't even tried them myself. But just to be clear, for once in my life I wasn't be sarcastic when I said some people had given them positive reviews... |

I just have to look up, how much shipping to USA is. Normally I sell my items only in UK, as the post is faster than to USA and the shipping costs are clear. Don't hit me with too many english words, I am sweating here, that I understand everything right. I have to go to bed now, its 2 am here, and have to get up at 7 am :-(

I ordered hair from Headrazor in Germany and it was less than $10 USD and my package arrived super fast. My wand weighs 10.7 oz so perhaps it won't be as much as you fear.
Main Entry: 1groove Pronunciation: 'grüv Function: noun 1 : a long narrow channel or depression They're grooved. They're also ridged. Just depends which word you want to pick. But really, that's just splitting hairs. Hahahaha. Get it? Splitting hairs? I kill me.
What do shrinkies have to do with my opinion on ridged metal rings? ------------- http://shrinkies.net - Extension Supplies & Virgin Brazilian Hair |

So in other words, we don't have such terrible prices for heat wands. |

I've seen what I think are micro rings with silicon rubber ridges lining the inside on German hair websites, designed to be more secure, esp. for fine/thin hair. And I am very intrigued by this. The sites are predominately in German though, so I need to do a bit more research before I try to place an order. Also overseas micro rings seem to come in a whole rainbow of colours, which would be quite nice. Slightly OT, but just to put out there that there do seem to exist many viable variations on the basic extend tube/micro link most of us use. I want them all, BTW |

Woah there, ladies!
Give the poor woman a chance - she's only been here 5 minutes and everyone's jumping down her throat. I, for one, am very interested in what she has to say about her heat clamps (it really isn't that big a deal to change a plug or get an adaptor). For a board that likes to think of itself as 'warm and welcoming', its members sure can do a good impression of the Spanish inquisition. |

It is definitely a day for Oolong the bunny. I have heard a few good things about the ridges inside, myself, but I haven't tried them. It seems to be common among microring brands sold in Europe. As for the prices: actually, 35 US dollars is 27 euro, currently- so the posted link is indeed a good price for North Americans. UKers or Europeans might save more money on shipping by buying yours, though. -Rae ------------- http://www.hairalchemy.net - Hair Alchemy |

| Yeah, missmean? I've been wading though international ebay and my bookmarks looking for where I saw these links but it's tedious, as I don't read German. So I'm scanning pictures and using a translator. I can say now that your ebay auctions were some of the one I had stumbled across. I remember them distinctly because of the red colour they come in. Havn't seen them yet in an orangey red as opposed to a bungany red, though. Anyway...I've almost bought your rings a few times, but am considering the switch to shrinkies. Also, sometimes I can find your auctions in English and sometimes not! lol. They look neat though. |

Yes the silicone rings are large size and kind of expensive. Until now, only a hand full of clients asked for it, but I don't think I am going to sell them. Thx, I am trying to make the description as perfect as possible. I hope I can give all the informations which are needed. I have an german account, and sometimes I am posting some auctions on ebay.uk. But I see now, I have only microrings in uk now.... An orange color is possible, but I have to say, my supplier changes his colors like his mind I am also wearing shrinkies and microrings at the mom, I like both systems, but microrings are the clients lovelies... Because of shipping to usa: some clients received their stuff within 7 days, others had to wait 2 weeks and more. German post is like a snail. Great evening ladies.... |

| I have to say that everyone really chewed her a new @#%* and I am pretty interested in what she has to say about the microrings! Especially the ones coated with silicone inside(if I heard that right!) Obviously ridges are going to yank out the clients natural hair, so I don't gives a rat's @#@%% about that, but I do like to hear about new things that are out there. |
