    "summer wave" rollers

    I just saw these in Walgreen's and wondered if anyone had tried them. It looks like one way to put big finger waves in longer hair. Sorry to start another roller thread, not sure where this one should go.

    going gray?

    I may be a little older than some on this board, so maybe you haven't concerned yourselves too much with hair that's progressively turning gray, or in my case, white. I'm 51 now and have been coloring my white hairs for about 10 years. The white parts are pretty much from the ears forward, and I...

    WEN cleansing conditioner?

    Has anyone tried this product? It may be less of a new product than a different way to take care of your hair, cleansing your hair with conditioner only, and lots of it, and its very expensive. http://www.wenhaircare.com/home_delivery.php?pactvid=3210434f5033d2224e603c17be80987b From the...

    Cute wedgies at BJ's

    I ran into my local BJ's warehouse store yesterday for some rubber gloves, dog food, and cleaning products. Little did I know that I would end up buying a pair of vintage looking sandals too. I just decided to look them up, and to my surprise I got the bargain of the week! I paid $19.99 for...

    What goes with these? Sofft ankle boots

    This might not be all that vintage, but I thought I'd ask your opinion. I just bought these cute ankle boots, but I'm not sure if I should wear them with a skirt or stick to slacks with them. Regular price is over $100, I got them for $40 at Marden's, too good a deal to resist, and SO...

    Bark cloth for clothing?

    I recently purchsed two three yard lengths of 50's era barkcloth that reminds me of the curtains "way back when" on my Grammy's sun porch. There is enough in each piece for a skirt or tailored shift. Just wondering... has anyone seen examples of barkcloth used for clothing, or is it best saved...
