Busy busy past weeks in the soaping industry. I have two more franchise stores to fill and a total of three countries my products are now going to and I'm just barely able to keep up. I'm literally working 100 hours per week. I'll cry as soon as I can wipe the smile off my face as I've been working toward this point for the past three years.

Wooot! Yesterday I *finally* cut the strings to my job, reducing my hours, and now the shrinkies site is going to have to go as well. I cannot do it all though I'd love to. Sooooooooooo...everything must go. If there's anything any of you want in bulk, let me know...it's all negotiable.

So Amm, where else could we purchase the shrinkies if you will no longer be selling them? I had all the places that I was going to use for ordering in line, now I have to start over.

amm i totally understand your need to cut back, of course. you always were such a great seller in that you tell it like it is, and money was never the bottom line - shrinkies.net will be sorely missed but best of luck!!!

Hello, Amm!

First of all, CONGRATS!! It is tough and very hard work trying to break into any industry and work at your own business. You have done so very successfully- and have been honest and deticated to providing high quality customer service and products along the way. Obviously it has paid off for you and sounds os if it will continue to. That's wonderful!

It will be sad to see your fab site go- but I have enjoyed the ride while it has lasted.

Good luck with all you do- I wish you nothing but the very best!

Hmm well I'm still desperate for some of the uncoloured Elite. Please please please? I've sort of given up hope but heh, if you don't ask you don't get!

Okay the others sell them, but are they lined with adhesive?

Wow, I've only been around for a short while and I really loved your site. I'm sorry to see it go! Could you direct your shrinkies.net lovers on where to buy the silicone lined microrings? I had great luck with them, some of the others I had bought were hard to open. I would appreciate it!!!!! !! Ba " 0e $ b` 4`p (,!$!,,%$ %)$( b` )"

Amm, I am so happy for you

I do not know if you ever got to my emails but I was intersted in 2-4 ounces of your remy hair in natural body. I do not need the 16 ounces since I only wear one weft. If you have any extra that you can sell to me let me know - thanks!

Shrinkies.net was awesome I am also sad to see it go.

Question: By any chance will you be still carrying the orange/citrus type spray on your soap site?

Posted By: neosoulsenhora
Date Posted: Mar 22, 2006 at 8:01pm

If anyone finds anything could you please pm me, I've been looking all week for distributors and the only thing is the minimum order quanity and then testing it to see the quality of the product. If I find anything I will exchange info as well as always !

!d ,$!$@ $` @ e My thoughts exactly!! Any chance there will be a "Fire Sale.. Prices drastically reduced!" on the Elite hair???

BTW.. what is the URL of Amm's soap site?? I LOVE natural soaps.. I have been helping a friend put together a site for his natural soap business, and he has got me HOOKED on this stuff!!!

Heres a couple of links I found with a quick search:

this one says they have the adhesive lining
http://www.shearessenceproducts.com/100extu.html

this one doesnt say anything about a lining, but it does say youll need to
remove residue from your hair... so i'm guessing they have it

I do have adhesive lined shrinkies on www.beaucouphair.com and silicone microrings if you can't find any.

Congradulations on your contracts Amm. It's a shame your site has to go as it was really successful but goodluck on the new venture.

www.drlocks.net do a salon sized jar of shrinkies (with approx 1350 tubes) for $39.99. They have the adhesive in them too.

Where can we find the shrinkies?
I pay for 800 pieces (the long ones) now 42 Euros.
Can I get them anywhere cheaper?

AMM - Everything you do, you do with such passion and gusto and intelligence and energy - so it makes sense that your venture has and is paying off - I WISH YOU WELL and mostly I THANK YOU SO SO VERY MUCH for all you have contributed to my hair-life!! And it has been a LOT!!!!!

ALL THE VERY VERY BEST TO YOU!!

p.s. Thanks for all the great hair - I just picked up a boatload of your Elite Remy - !!!

try http://www.fortune21c.com/hairexpert.htm for the adhesive lined s*****ies. I havent used this supplier but they say they have them. Their prices are $10 per jar of 450 pieces. The pictures they sent me could be of the longer length ones but it's hard to say as the pictures not very clear. Either way i would recommed getting a sample off them first.

Posted By: aninnina
Date Posted: Mar 31, 2006 at 4:19pm

Thank you for the address, I already know this supplier. I bought the first shrinkies from him, and they cost 7 Euro per 225 pieces. So you got a different price?! But he has only the short ones, and I loooove the extended length.

Also he sells microrings with the silicone ring inside, 500 pieces 25 Euros (yes, he charges Euros!)....

At all he is very expensive, but the dumbwordthings are really great (but so short)....

For the hair: I ordered 25 kg with a friend from him. The first order was great, fine hair and felt also great after few times washing. The second order we did, the hair was sh*t, crap. It tangled after 3 weeks of wearing and he only said: mmh, maybe we got also a bad delivery...grrrrr... never order hair from him, but will ask for the dumbwordthings if he has them in a longer size...

Thanx Chick!

Sorry chick, if i come across another source i will let you know. Cant believe the price difference in quotes. They seemed very friendly but it took 3 emails to get the answers to my questions and with what you have said i think i will give them a miss.

Imagine switching the hair quality with your next order, thats very sneeky and bad business. They say their hair is the best in the world but i guess in general that a supplier selling hair described as supreme quality etc is only the finest in their experience / dealings and doesnt mean it is actually the best ( i have a list of many suppliers as examples of this but im saying nothing)

I'd definitely recommend Amm's soap to anyone and everyone- I've tried about 5 different kinds of their soap and loved it all. :) I have super-sensitive dry skin, and handmade soap is the only way to go.

Oh girl please! Your contributions to this board are unparalleled! Your in depth research, experiments, amazing photo documentation...legendary. You've unearthed sources from god knows where and made hair supplies available we could only have imagined getting a year ago. You've raised the bar for online hair resources so far, people copy you just to keep up. From pretipping to Plastikhaar, shrinkies, thermofiber, to high quality human hair...all of it was really fun! You made it fun and affordable.

Amm, you deserve all the success you get and more. No one puts their money where their mouth is like you do.

Both of you ladies have taught me so much, given me encouragement, humor a great new hobby!

I remember when I first came to this board how in awe I was of all the new lingo and methods of hair extensions.It took me a few months before I could figure out how to put a ring on a threader and I still can't get a picture of myself with two mirrors for the life of me!

I wondered if and when that time would come when I had enough knowledge to pass on what I learned on this forum. It's because of you both and others like Sherrie that took the time to explain everything over and over that I can help along the next newbies!
