Considering I lost out on this gem about 6 months ago to the tune of $250, I dont mind that this one has a 'damaged' cover, considering I got it for $30

I got this on eBay for more than it should be, but alas, not the kind of thing I can ever find in our meager thrift/antique/junk shops. looks to be in good shape and now I don't have to do wet sets with thinking too much ahead of schedule (and I can try Lolita's perm rod sets!)

It's not vintage but the price was right...i also am getting my sister's old perm rods to do Lolita's sets too...seriously, this is why i got it.

Inky said:not so much a purchase as a gift from my mother - this set of samsonite suitcases that had belonged to my great-grandmother and are monogrammed with her initials HLG. I have coveted these cases for a long time and am thrilled to have them. this weekend we ran away from home and I used them!
I use my mom's old one - it's also pink! I'd say on a hot setting you should expect more than an hour. No more than two though.Inky said:Martini, I am now officially scared - and we didn't even discuss it in advance!! If we ever meet in person there may be a rift in time or something.
Bombshell Becca - I'm not sure at all, it's been decades since I've used a bonnet dryer, but I liked this one because not only was it pink (!) and had a mirror but it also has 4 temp settings, so hopefully it won't be more than an hour or so - my hair is thick, coarse and wavy. I do a wet set on dry hair and wet it with a spray bottle and setting lotion, so it's not actually "wet." I'll let you know though after I get it and try it out!
