Well, turns out the hastings near my house carries Bump-its now, so I went ahead and got some! Turns out, the actually work really well! I love the way the make my hair look. I can't make my hair have volume no matter how much hairspray I use, or how much I backcomb it. So the bumpit works really well, and the teeth actually hold it in! But just for good measure, when I perform, I put two hair pins in the back. And no one would be the wiser! My hair is thick, so I don't have to backcomb it, and it doesn't show through. It's awesome! I'll post pictures soon. :) Thu, 10 Sep 2009 05:07:33 GMT http://dancemakeup.tribe.net/thread/91db4112-4c2a-433c-9887-d3d3de03cb32#bbd1ec11-1194-416a-90b6-0209d999da29 Nefabit 2009-09-10T05:07:33Z http://dancemakeup.tribe.net/thread/91db4112-4c2a-433c-9887-d3d3de03cb32#40326c7e-44a0-4c83-9b19-2ac8443c53f2 Sock bun: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EP_dJPUhL2A Sun, 06 Sep 2009 16:12:08 GMT http://dancemakeup.tribe.net/thread/91db4112-4c2a-433c-9887-d3d3de03cb32#40326c7e-44a0-4c83-9b19-2ac8443c53f2 Bellatrix 2009-09-06T16:12:08Z http://dancemakeup.tribe.net/thread/91db4112-4c2a-433c-9887-d3d3de03cb32#a7c9929b-0993-4784-b442-48e8f9210ae4 what is a sock bun? a rat? im new to this! :) Sun, 06 Sep 2009 15:04:41 GMT http://dancemakeup.tribe.net/thread/91db4112-4c2a-433c-9887-d3d3de03cb32#a7c9929b-0993-4784-b442-48e8f9210ae4 janet 2009-09-06T15:04:41Z http://dancemakeup.tribe.net/thread/91db4112-4c2a-433c-9887-d3d3de03cb32#b1b898bc-5747-406a-aa6f-dbceb9b252e9 I have to fly in October for a wedding.....you just gave me the best idea.

I'm having a hard time visualizing it. To use two bumpits, you place the med sized bumpit above your ears (following the standard directions) then move back, like half an inch to an inch and place the larger bumpit (as per usual) then bring the hair covering the front bumpit over the back bumpit and smooth. You can then pull your hair back into a ponytail or leave it down. I like it best in the pony. I use my bumpit recently on a trip to Alaska and it worked out fab! I put it in, in the morning, then drove two hours to the airport, and then spent 14 more hrs in airports and on airplanes. When I arrived in Anchorage at 3 in the morning my friends were amazed that my hair still looked that good. I was too. For some reason flying makes my hair flat and kinda greasy feeling and it never looks good. I love my bumpit. I wore it at the wedding I went to attend. I used one of the updo's that they have in the pamphlet and I never could have achieved it without the bumpit. Be sure to read the instructions for the best results. Okay, end of tirade!

On top. Secure the ponytail with either a rubberband (they're miserable, but they will hold up during an 8 hour exhibition show) or a fabric covered elastic (not as good because your hair will attempt to slither through it). Now, pull the pony tail across your crown using both hands. What you're doing is making the base of the ponytail wider. You will need bobby pins to secure the hair once it's been pulled sideways. You will also need to pull a little hair forward and secure it too with the bobbypins. What you're doing is hiding the ponytail base and simutaneously making very! large hair. A little hair spray will hold it for sure, but you really don't need to spray this. My Mom showed me how to do this a few years back. She said during the 60's big hair was all the rage and that's how they mostly did it. This will work with hair from shoulder length on down. I have done this with one of my troupe mate's hair and she has very fine, thin hair. It looked great and stayed in place! Great spot for those flowers too!

Can't begin to imagine one of those things wobbling on top of my head- I tried one of them and was not impressed, and it didn't stay in place at all, AND showed through my hair, and my hair sagged over it. Took them back for a refund. I think a rat is the way to go. You can also make them from cheap fake hair, which costs about $3 a package (if the brush pickings are too gross & dusty), and old-school invisible hair nets, as mentioned above. Rat up the hair, shape it and tie into the hair net, cut off the excess and pin in place with the knot hidden against your scalp; brush your own hair over it.

Just rolled it up into an invisible hair net, use a couple of bobby pins to hold it, then smooth my own hair over it. Works great and I don't have to backcomb or have a hard lump of plastic on my head.

So, they either bought it, or saved the hair from the brushes, rolled it into a "rat" size and shape, pinned it to the head, and smoothed her growing hair over it to look fuller. Thus a "rat" and the ratting of hair- sometimes called teasing and back-combing.

We ratted it right down to the roots, then used half a can of industrial strength hairspray.to hold the thing in place And that was after a night of sleeping on brush rollers with the holding picks stabbing into our scalps. We ironed our hair too. Really. With an iron. The same one used to press clothing. So we could have stick straight hair. No styling products like now.

The shipping on these things is highway robbery! What are they made of? Lead? good grief! I ordered two sets (one discounted) one for me and one for my sister who's birthday is in April. The shipping was almost thirty dollars! $30! Bringing my total to over sixty dollars. Plus they don't give you a chance to review your order and remove something if you change your mind. You click "order now" on the home page, they ask for all your credit card info, then ask if you want to get another set for 14.99, then ask you if you want the how to dvd for the low low price of 9.99+4.99 s&h then they ask if you want some of those "strap perfect" thingies, and then asks if you might like them in wedding white ("not in a box, not with a fox" THANK you muchly) and then boom! your done. "Thank You! Your order is complete" Subtotal $34.98 Shipping $29.80 Tax $0.00 (thank goodness) Order Total $64.78. From there your only options are "Print your Confirmation" "Back to Home Page" Phew! I needed to get that off my chest! I think I will cancel my order and just order a set for myself and let my sister borrow them and get her something else for her b-day.

Haven't tried 'em or even hear of them until now, but it looks like it would be really handy for stage! My hair is waist long and HEAVY, so it's always flat at the crown. Once these hit stores and get a little less "gadgety" I'll probably try one out! Any one else had experience with them?

Bumpits, a product I've been seeing on TV, and Vidal Sassoon's hair poufs, which have been mentioned on message boards discussing the Bumpits product. I like the idea of being able to do a retro look like that without all the teasing, so I was wondering...have any of you tried either of these products? If so, what do you think?
