I've had an e-mail from a lady interested in the UK bohyme that I sell through ebay and my website.  She said she was fully qualified in fusion and "shrink-links".  I asked her where she did her training in "shrink-links" and this is her response.  I nearly fell over!!!

Do you think Mark Barrington should be informed about this lol.  She is offering a course actually called shrink-links and obviously selling what is not shrink-links if this lady is having problems getting them out.  Is there no end to this woman!

Who in their right mind acts this way?

I agree with you Bridget....who in there RIGHT mind acts this way?

RIGHT being the key word

I've had more e-mails from the lady and she says she paid $360, the training took place in an old metal shed in Manchester and it took one hour!  Poor woman! x

It appears in exposing SGB aka Connect-2-Hair again for the fraud she is I have offended.  Correction to my first post as below as corrected by the lady!  It appears that Connect-2-Hair is still lurking!

Hi

This is my 1st posting here.

I am the lady who had the assessment course with Connect-2-Hair and I need to put the record straight here about a posting by Amanda.

Here is the email sent to Amanda today which should clarify things.

No its definitely not, but I feel sorry for this woman if she's on her side lol x

shady business.

lotus - do a board search and you'll see many examples of how to DIY for installation and removal which is free public information and sounds like more beneficial/informative for you. i don't know what the deal is and who's a lurker or not, but if the person from whom you took the course is that helpful as you say, then i think you should be contacting her for help. you paid good money for training after all, and i would think that would include removal.

Ahh ok.  Just wanted to be sure, SGB seems to have an unhealthy obsession with messing with you.

if u live near by shes not going to want to train up peeps so they can set up next to her and ye manda is fab but shes worked really hard to get her bizness up, establish a gd rep etc...

haha amanda. rob dog. hilarious.

you two should set up extensions/hairdressing school in the dog shed - why you could even include people and their dogs. brilliant. untapped market.

heee heee i fell off my chair at that one!! if we need any 613 for hair extensions theres always your dogs!!!! lets not even get into the subject of body piercing!!!!!!!!

My GOD!

I'm such a t*at aren't I!

Although I'm perfectly content with US Bohyme and Amandas Bohyme I decided to go and order some bloody Burlesque hair. Two washes and I've taken it out! Dreadful stuff. It went fluffy, frizzy and manky as you like. I looked like a cave-woman.

I know it's good to experiment but why didn't I take a certain persons advice? I'm such a pratt at times.

Grr.

(Sorry to rekindle such mingy memories but I needed to rant..)

same thing happened to me sammy a while ago.  I was searching for Connect in LOndon (the one posh spice uses) and came across Connect2hair in manchester and thought they were the same company (not surprising considering the name) and told her i wanted a good quality hair and paid over £50 for the 5* if i can remember right and when the hair arrived, i instally knew i couldnt install it to any of my clients as i have my reputation to think of.  I then contacted her to ask to return it (as it was overly dry, split and frizzy imo) and thats when all hell broke loose and she refused to take it back or refund (probably because she knew exactly the quality of hair she sent me 

Then after a month i just returned the hair to her anyway following trading standards advice and she refunded me and i though this was the end of it until nearly a month later she called me saing she had no received the hair and im like What are you serious!!! and then tried to get 2 debt collectors onto me, harrassed all the staff in the salon i was working in and left me voice messages saying that my house would be reposed!!!!!

Seriously im glad to get rid!!

Bloodyhell!

That's an extreme for you.

I actually installed the hair (I only got the 1* so I'm glad about that) but judging by the desperate quality of it I have no doubt that the 5* would be as bad.

I'm thinking of calling her tomorrow just to let her know how unhappy I am. I can't see I'll get a refund now. She can just say it's my own fault.

Gaaaagh

yeah you can say that again!   Also i went to trading standards about her but then she told them i was a business so they wouldnt deal with my case when infact my business didnt start trading until about a month after i bought from her and the only reason she new i had one was because of the link on this board.  She even went as far as sending them a made up trade invoice (which certainly wasnt the one i got) 

Oh and i also got an indirect thread left on my answerphone about coming to my house (which i still have by the way)

AND she also divulged my personal details to random sellers on ebay telling them i was trouble and not to deal with me.

also i had to change my card details!

Amm also bought from her and wasnt happy and she started a vandeta against her too. 

It learned me a valuable lesson though and i now only deal with reputable companies who treat me with respect and most importantly keep my personal information confidential!!!

So it's not worth a call then?

Surely if that many people have a case against her there has to be a way to put a stop to it. You'd think if everyone complained to training standards then they'd consider something?

I'm not sure what to do. But this is bad!
