The Ficcare Thread (Formerly "Show me your Ficcare color")

As popular as the Opal Lotus is, I really hope Ficcare brings it back so you and everyone else who wants one can have one!

The jewel *is* bluer.

And the lotus is ...sigh... the only ficcare I really covet

me, too. Now that I see the lotus again, I lose my desire to buy a non-jewel opal.

Okay. One more picture. These two are *almost* the same color. Not quite, but almost.

Love those opal comparison shots!

Lovi, I'm so glad the trade arrived safely! I'm in love with this lime, it is surprisingly comfortable since I don't own many large ficcares but it holds fine, even if the ficcare completely devours my head AND bun!

[Islandgrrl]

Oh my goodness, Julee! You got the lime! And isn't it just spectacular in your hair - it makes quite a statement! Congratulations and wear it well!

Rags, I hope one comes your way. I think it would look great on you!

Salty, I could have sworn I responded to your pic - I love that opal in your hair! A keeper, for sure!

Lovi, gorgeous trades!

Izzie, I love that golden jade! That's one I wish I'd gotten when I had the chance (I didn't think gold worked for me back then...) it's beautiful in your hair!

Woohoo, pictures! Thanks, guys! (I don't think it is neccessary to say how gorgeus everyone's pic is, it would be stating the obvious).

Islandgrrl -- you have an amazing collection. Thanks for sharing your photos!

I just got two trades today (from Brighteyes). Knowing that its to help her personally prevents me from feeling too much guilt. They are smalls and I'm delighted to find that I can make them work on a greater range of buns than I realized. Its the magic of that powerful Ficcare spring! I'll try to get photos tomorrow.

Sizing Question: I have Ficcares ranging from small to large. I can wear all sizes, depending on the bun. Mediums are the most versatile. I can wear larges really comfortably, but I think I would probably just buy mediums except for the Ficcare famine issue down the line (when I expect my hair will be longer/thicker). Does anyone else have this flexibility?
