...cos thats what I spent at 111 on two hairs.

Yes, I was one of the 111, but so what? Its my lindens that I work damn hard for and if I decide I want to pay $2,000 for a pack of Elikatera hair - how is this any of your business? What gives you the right to sit on your high horses judging me, calling me a sheep or "part of the in crowd"? I don't judge your spending habits, so please don't judge mine.

Anyway, if you break the packs I bought down...

Elikatera - $2000 for 28 hairs works out at just over $71 per hair
Lamb - $1500 for 9 hairs works out at just over $166 per hair

Considering some stores like Detour and Cake sell one colour for over $300 - its still a fricken bargain!

Sure I only wear one black shade as my standard avi look, but as a blogger, multipacks are a plus and I have already used another colour from the Elikatera pack.

Yes the prices were extreme - but as the saying goes, no-one was forcing you to pay them, so quiet in the cheap seats!!!

Now back to our regularly scheduled blogging.
