Dumpin' meh BumpIts

I've had a few people ask me about the bumpits. Sorry i didn't review them. I felt like in order to give a decent review, i should use them, take pics, explain the process, etc. Problem is that i can't get the dang things to work very well at all. So everytime i set out to take some pics of them in action, it winds up being a bad hair day.

I received my bumpits about 2-3 weeks after ordering them. I was starting to believe it would be the entire 6-8 weeks they say in every infomercial. I was TICKED that i paid $7.95 S&H to get my "free" hollywood bumpit, and then ALL THE BUMPITS CAME IN ONE BOX! Total i received 2 regular ones, 2 tiny ones, and one gigantic one. I had paid $5 extra to get the ones that have this rubber gripper lining stuff. It was supposed to make them hold in my hair better.

Now, i have a lot of hair so i never thought concealing the device would be a problem. And as far as actually seeing it thru my hair - no problem there. But the "bump" it creates is very precise, and very noticable in my opinion. Because it is making one narrow section of hair stand up quite high, the hair around it can't compete, and you can "see" that the bumpit is there in my bouffant.

I've played around with them a few times with very little success. I have yet to wear one out of the house. Heck, i've not even worn one out of my bathroom! Maybe i just have a weird head. Or weird hair. i dunno. I'll say this much, it wasn't worth the $50 i paid.

So if you want to give them a try, don't order them like i did. Instead visit Sally Beauty Supply who now carries them. I've also heard that Walgreens has them. Better yet, write to me and ask for mine! LOL!

If you DON'T want to try them, but want the look, get inspired by Pursebuzz's method that uses no devices and very little teasing.
