My Generic Curlformer Experience!

I've wanted curlformers from the moment I heard about them. Heatless curls that could stretch my natural hair? SOLD! Except not really, because I don't like the Shirley Temple style of the orange/pink ones on me. I prefer a looser curl so I forgot about curlformers and moved on.

About two months ago I read a thread on the hair boards about the barrel curlformers being released in 24" length. SOLD! Thanks to a Black Friday sale I was able to get two packs of 24 and the soft hood dryer for 20% off as a Christmas gift from my mom.

But, I was worried that 48 curlformers wouldn't be enough. My hair is fine, but also dense. Instead of shelling out the $$ for another pack of curlformers, I shopped around on Ebay and bought a 2 packs of 8 for about $35 with tax.

The packs that I got were pretty crappy. The mesh was ripped at the end of 8 of them. The plastic ends were, I assume dipped, and some of the material crept up the mesh. I had to use a pair of tweezers to remove the plastic bit by bit. I'm not pleased and plan to contact the seller
