I made an AE order yesterday...then today, they send an email about 40% off everything. I called in to see if they could PA for me (since a coat I ordered is already OOS). The CS said no. Sadwalk ... I wonder if I should bother trying again.

I don't remember. I remember she was banned at Lancome, but I don't remember anything about EL. I wonder where she is, btw. I hope everything is going great for her.
Oh yeah, I remember that. I think she placed too many orders on their site.

AE is not good when it comes to price adjusting. They dont have good or even nice CS in my opinion.
PS they raised a lot of the prices to make up for their 40% discount.

It's bad CS. Oh well...I've re-ordered what I could. It's a very non-efficient way to conduct business b/c then it causes the customer to have to return one set of merch.

definitely bad CS. They sound very unenthusiastic over the phone. plus, i'm sure they're hoping you're too lazy to return and dont want to deal with the hassle.

my hair from the back, after sleeping on it! i can't seem to get the curls to start any higher tho, with any curling device.

You have beautiful hair ... I am jealous. I love the wavy curls. I get my curls to look the way they do in this video [thesmallthingsblog.com] Kurips posted since I've been practicing.

Quote from azn1x6flame :
Love the hair!

laugh out loud I just forced the right hand glove to be my left hand glove. Except, I realized I can't really do my hair with the glove on. I get confused so I took it off and got mini-burned twice shake head
I couldn't get the hang of it using the glove. I finally figured out how to do it without the glove and without burning myself. I was even able to do my DD's hair last night without burning her or myself. That is a an accomplishment. I always burn myself. LMAO

It looks good the day after. Mine is still holding whatever curl was left from yesterday and it looks better today than yesterday. Maybe it was because I had to comb my hair for the rollers. I usually never comb my hair and keep it piecey because I like that look more. So it's looking a lot more piecey today : )

I like how your curls start lower. Mine usually starts really high, which sometimes I don't like too much. Usually when I get all the hair into the wand, I push the wand higher up to my hair, where I want the curls to start. Maybe that might help?
hmmmm. i feel like i get as close as i can without burning myself... maybe i will try to push it up more next time. post a pic of yours!!
Quote from leftie :
Oh no, my hair is really thick! I shouldn't complain though b/c at least it is low to no maintenance required. I literally just wash and go and things fall into place. Big Grin
...
Hair still looks great! Love the loose curls look on you!
if you have thick hair, you can have hair that looks like mine... lol. i have super duper thick hair (and a WHOLE LOT of it). it's usually not stick straight - i straight perm it once a year. it's usually frizzy if i don't do that.
Quote from GoHeels :
...

You girls are tempting me to measure my hair & I don't even care how long it is. laugh out loud I already know it's too long, w/o measuring it. I'll try to remember to take a pic the next time I curl it. It appears I like more curl than you all do though.
...
I know I can return Express online purchases to the store. Do they process the refund in store or ship it to the warehouse for a refund like VS does?
...
Should I order a small or medium in that dress? I've been procrastinating on placing an order, while I decide on the metallic nude dress. I think I'll go ahead & order it.

Apparently, I didn't copy your post with the picture of your hair. It's looks beautiful. Girly It's great that it's still pretty after sleeping on it. Mine won't usually hold curl overnight.
...
measure it! or post a pic, or both! we want to know! nod
hmmm about that dress, that's a tough one bc you have girls that are so much larger than mine. i think i'm able to wear the XS bc i don't have such a large chest - that's where it's tightest i think. it's very stretchy so the S may work for you. but i'm not sure bc of your assets.

and yeah! people are surprised it can stay like that overnight. i did curl it late last night... if i can get my hair to curl, it usually stays curled (except with hot rollers - that doesn't last)

I was going to comment that it looks like we have the same hair texture...and coloring? Do you dye/color your hair? I used to...but then I developed a very severe allergic reaction. As it turns out though, my natural color is a dark reddish brown. It's very un-Asian (in my mom's opinion). LMAO
