I have found this site that is rather interesting... You can buy hair straight from the head of the person who grows it. I'm not sure if you guys have seen it before but it seemed like an interesting concept. I think RK are advertising here to... http://www.hairwork.com/bidhere.htm - http://www.hairwork.com/bidhere.htm

You can buy a whole kilo of 30" Indian hair for about the same cost as the single 4 oz. ponytail. ------------- http://hawaiianhairextensions.com - http://hawaiianhairextensions.com |

Hi Tangles, I've bought hair from 2 companies in India: http://www.skmhumanhair.com - www.skmhumanhair.com It took 4 weeks for my last parcel, but he did come through. He explained to me the company was shut down for a big featival in India. With hindsight I would buy hair from him again. His prices are really good. You have to tell him to quote a price in US dollars not Euros.
http://www.shepherdindia.com - www.shepherdindia.com These friends just got back from a Christian outreach in Iran. I really trust them, although the price has gone up a bit.
Both of these companies carry longer lenghts.

I think those prices are INSANE. I can buy a full head of the BEST quality TOP of the line hair that is already wefted for far less, and you know its clean and sanitized. With these hair auctions how would you know what you are getting for sure? ------------- www.hairextensions101.com - www.hairextensions101.com www.mybeautyaddiction.com - www.mybeautyaddiction.com |

It does seem that people on the site are trying to cash in!
There must be a site that offers a better service. Though I guess it would be hard to test the quality or claims made...

I do wish that we could somehow make sure the donors of Indian hair would get some money. They don't. Since they "offer" their hair in temple they don't know it's being sold...  . For us it would be cheap.
And now you get this! It feels a bit icky. Makes one wonder if these girls voluntarily give up their hair. Is this perhaps a new type of "pimping"?? And those prices!!!! ------------- I learn to love and try to understand everyone I meet. I see the rainbow hiding in their eyes.

Plus there's tons of other information out there in the world regarding the temple hair and it's disposition.. I think the donors (in India at least) know full well what happens to the hair when they donate it.. The temples are VERY open about the fact that they sell the hair. The money is supposed to be used to support the temple's charitable activites and maintenance.. ------------- Check out the 5th So Cal offline luncheon??

Bingo. Glad to see another eagle eye out there recognizing that fact. I do think this is actually a cool concept if one can verify the validity of it. Unfortunately, this particular site sets off the wrong bells and whistles for me. ------------- http://shrinkies.net - Extension Supplies & Virgin Brazilian Hair |
