Ponytail Cuffs
Posted by The Rev on April 01, 2002 at 12:50:56: Previous Next
I just recently ordered a ponytail cuff from this site. It arrived in the mail flattened. This bugged me alot, but my girlfriend assures me that ponytail cuffs are supposed to be flexible so you can wrap them around the tail. I'm not so sure.
What are some of the experiences others of you have had with products of this kind? Are they generally flimsy, or solid jewelry? Who makes the best ones, in your opinions?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
The Rev

I have one made by al smith( company METAL SCHMIDT) which is a hard brass. If its flattened or damaged from the mail, there should be some kind of dint or crease that looks out of place. Does it look like it did on the site? If its damaged, I would think the person shipping it would take responsibility if they did not package it properly. I would definitely not ask for a fragile item to be sent in an envelope as those are all processed through rollers. Which may have been what flattened it. Mine is curved.

After looking at the cuff site it appears that the cuffs are curved and what they call ponytail ties are flat....could it be you ordered a tie instead of a cuff .....or they mixed up.....cuffs defitely appear to be curved NOT FLAT.

Rev,
"Flattened?" "Flexible?" Not if you're talking about the same product I got! A girlfriend of mine gave me one a year or so ago. It was cylindrical, was not flattened, and is most assuredly NOT flexible. I see they changed their designs and that's good. I may have to try one of their newer ones as the one I have really doesn't work too well for me. I got one of the largest diameters they sold and it still feels to narrow for my hair.
Good luck with yours!

This was a pony tail CUFF. It was made of nickel-silver and cylindrical in shape (flattened in the mail to a thin oval) with a hair tie connected to the inside.
