oh really? no, I usually buy them from ebay, so shipping costs are expensive. mm... might be a good idea to check the ironmongery... cause they are relatively cheap i know, it's only the shippin that's making them expensive.

i have recently started wearing my 3rd unit of the year. All the units are still in good condition, but thing is when I receive one, I order another one for emergency, but I end up too excited when I receive the new one... so I change it. Plus, it's my first year wearing, so everything is kinda new and I'm still experimenting ... I'm not too careful with the unit's life. But that's the least of my worries for now. When all is 100% sorted, I'll focus on making my units last longer. I could easily go a whole year with 2 units, just to keep the hair looking fresh and nice... I find that in time, it will get a bit brittle and dry to my liking. Understandable really.
