Ah...no...they do not. I called VS to order a bra. I was asking the CS rep about the Fabulous Bra. She is surprised I knew about it. She tells me it is not available yet. I told her that it definitely is available for me. I give her the info. She keeps saying "I have to check into this". "Oh, it is in our system. It is not online though." All the while, I am online looking at the bra laughing at her. Her attitude pushed me to purchase it. I was also considering two other bras. My thing is keep it together. There is no reason to get an attitude. She came off like I had no idea what I was talking about. I am just trying to make a purchase, ma'am. I hope I like the bra.
shake head Typical clueless VS CS. At least you showed her that you were right.

Quote from GoHeels :
The Kronos Styling Mousse http://www.dermstore.com/product_..._19563.htm in the Dermstore sale is good for using on your hair, before rolling.

Speaking of rolling hair, I read an article the other day that was discussing a survey given to men. They said the thing that attracts them to a woman first is pretty hair. A large majority said they would choose a woman who was overweight (not obese) over a woman with unattractive hair. There was a VS reference, which is why I read it. The article said, if you're going on a date & don't have money to go to the salon & Victoria's Secret, go to the salon. laugh out loud It doesn't matter how sexy your lingerie is, if they don't find you attractive in the first place. I'm paraphrasing, but that's basically what it said. I immediately thought about you girls & our hair discussions, when I saw the article. Teehee
Oh, thanks for the info! I needed a push to get my hair cut. Still traumatized by a bad haircut from last time. EEK!
Quote from azn1x6flame :
True about the hair, in my experience. I've had friends comment and ask how I get my hair the way it is and some exes have too. DBF comments about my hair a lot of the times, but usually, it's just messy in my opinion. I like the messy beach waves look that I normally get when I get out of bed if I washed my hair right before bed. I think I'm lucky because sometimes my hair looks great in the mornings and I don't even run a comb through it. laugh out loud
I still haven't tried my rollers yet! But I will this week! It hope it works with the products prep!
High Five on your great hair! I always think that messy, effortless hair = sexy hair. Maybe I'll try your method sometimes. Wink
Quote from IceyNiki :
I tried on the Fabulous Bra...let's just say, it was not fabulous in my opinion. Just a regular bra.
Aw...that sucks that you may need to return the one you bought online yesterday! Frown You used the free bra coupon right? Might need to call CS again for an exchange.

Quote from annicus :
i forgot to prep my hair. i just dried it - didn't use any products. next time i will try to remember to mousse it beforehand or something. i'm too lazy to try new rollers - this set already doesn't fit all my hair (i used smaller chunks of hair this time so i got more curls out of it) and there are 10 rollers. that would mean i would have to buy multiple sets of others - i don't want to do that yet!
My set has 30 rollers in 3 different sizes. 10 wouldn't even start to roll my hair, but it's really long. I can see why you don't want to buy more though. It sounds like it looks great, w/o a lot of curl.

Quote from kurips :
i quoted the wrong post because the other one is too long :coverlaf :

i tried the conair superclips for my hot rollers. surprisingly the pin holds better than the clip. that's probably expected for something "universal", to not really fit as good as you want it too. i will stick with my pins, i'll use the superclips for sectioning.
Sorry for the long post. Embarrassment I thought you all would rather me do multiple quotes than make so many posts.

I haven't tried those clips yet. It's too bad they don't work. They're more convenient, but not if they don't work good.

Quote from ALVSGIRLY :
Colorado is beautiful. I want to go back and spend more time there. It's only a 2 hr plane trip to Denver for us :r ock:!
I'm glad you had a good visit. woot We need to go there some time. What was there to do where you were at?

Bad haircuts are the worst. No wonder you're scared. EEK! I hope you find a stylist you like.

Me either. I want to get to VIB this year, but I'm not making a lot of progress. The one code & free ship w/$50 purchase requirements always make me think twice. It's probably a good thing. I'd order way too much, if we could get FS with a smaller order + a GWP.



I'm glad it worked for you. You've done good to get your returns sent in already. I need to work on that.
Get working with your returns -so youcna use those gcs to order with srcs when they are active Smilie

I am not sephora VIB either ! And i want atleast 3 slot in sephora for gwp- i dont thinks its fair to lose on gwp if I want fs with code that they have sometimes wiht $25 purchase. I am not big on makeup so I think it will take me forever to reach to 500 points Embarrassment

i have 2 or 3 of these still in the original packaging, unopened. i can send you one if you'd like. laugh out loud i think it's supposed to be good but takes a LONG time to dry. i kinda think all the "great" reviews are fake.

oh my! well i'm glad you got a good one. stupid amazon!!! i can't believe they shipped old stuff. that's shady!

btw i tried one coconut water over the weekend. it was great! not as sweet at taste nirvana, but not sour like the vita coco. i'll assume it's how the vita coco was supposed to taste. they had it at the half marathon race after-party that i went to on sat (i did the 10k). i was so happy for the rehydration! i took 5 of them and drank 1, hoarded the rest. ^_^
