Fun to see how you look after ""getting to know you"" as a fellow poster......and you're lovely! I'd never have the nerve to post a personal pic here!

I just wanted to rave about that Calista Perfecter. I bought this about a month ago for myself. It's probably the best hair tool I have ever owned. I can run it through my hair, and in 5 minutes I look like I had a professional blow out.

I realize it can be dangerous and I'm taking a chance of being stalked or something. But if not now, when? That's becoming my philosophy these past few years. My beloved sister spent the last ten years of her life never letting anyone take her picture. She would put her hand up over her face (we have a few photos of that) but otherwise, nothing. We do have one two or three minute tape of her in the hospital before she went to hospice that her grandson sneaked taking and we all have a copy of it, and she's joking around and we treasure that. She never knew he took it (in fact, most of us didn't until he surprised us all with it).

OMG, best thing I ever bought from the Q! My youngest daughter tried mine and got one too. Thing is I have to keep resting my arms, so it does take me a little longer sometimes, not that it's that heavy for a normal person. I'm glad you like it too, brii!

I envy those of you who can use the Perfecter. It did nothing for me. I mean absolutely nothing.

I have thin, fine and poker straight hair. It didn't even give me bend to my hair. The only time it slightly worked was on second day hair when I had product build-up and some curl left from the day before.

I hesitated for so long. I wish I had gotten it sooner. LOL

I have super curly hair. I can get it smooth and get volume up at the crown in just a few minutes. My daughter uses it to get those beach curls too. I ordered her one to take to college.

My daughter has really hard to curl hair. She has to take a small section and hold it for a while. She had to play with it to get the knack of it. Her hair is very thick.

Ford, I love your hair. I have long hair too at age 63. It's healthy and in very good condition and I get compliments all the time as I bet you do too. I'm still a brunette with only a little gray. I say if you have hair that is in good shape,wear it long if you like it. You have given me permission to keep wearing mine long through my 70's!

btw, You do look fabulous!

Good! A lot of the old fashioned cliches no longer matter. We should all do whatever makes us feel good about ourselves, and most of us agree with that.
