It starts again. Ok, guys, here’s some upsetting news for some of you. After speaking on the phone with Special Effects this morning, we found out that without warning, they’ve decided to “possibly permanently” discontinue Limelight Green. I KNOW. There’s literally nothing we can do about it, EXCEPT… Manic Panic to the rescue, again. Guys, [...]
So, after three days of rain and gloom, it’s summer here in the Attic. Good things are afoot! All special effects hair dye colors are IN and shipping! Woah! I know. Shocking! We even have YELLOW! Woah! I know. Calm down though, it’s a little crazy. And there’s OTHER insanely awesome summer news as well. [...]
We’re sick of these. Are you guys? Yeah, sorry about that. So, for over a WEEK, Special Effects just wasn’t picking up their phone. This was after we started shipping out some early orders because a small delivery arrived instead of the MASSIVE one, and after being told that “your order is absolutely shipped, we [...]
Ok, kids. Today we did our usual “hey, Special Effects, come ON ALREADY!” call (seriously, they’re sick of hearing from us and to be quite honest, we’re sick of being THIS annoying to a supplier.) Thus far, for MONTHS it’s been “it’ll be a few weeks, it’ll be a few weeks.” It’s a nightmare on [...]
Good news, kids! You can now get those dark turquoise dreads you’ve been wanting from Amalthea’s Attic! We’ve got in a supply and there’s more coming, so if you want some, order ‘em now! You can also get dark turquoise in custom falls. As you know, there’s a waiting time for production when you get [...]
Woo hoo! It’s an Amalthea’s Attic stock update! Don’t you love those? We do them so infrequently, I know. Anyway, we wanted to let you know that we just got a nice healthy delivery of your favorite dye (and mine!) Special Effects! So EVERY color in the line is back in stock and now shipping! [...]
Ok guys, our long national nightmare is over and you should all have, if not your dye, then at least the tracking number for your Special Effects Dye orders. I think we can all agree that the delay was nuts, but seriously, nothing could be done. The supplier fell way behind so no one was [...]
Ok, kids, today is the day many of you have been waiting for. As you know, we haven’t been taking custom falls orders, or even orders for double ended dreads. Between rheumatoid arthritis and some other illness issues, your pal Amalthea just hasn’t been up to it. I know, weep, weep, squish squish. However, recently, [...]
One of the fun things about the holidays is that there’s a better than average chance that you’ll get some snail mail. The FUN kind of snail mail, where you open it, and there’s no bill inside! Just joy and a reminder that perhaps you aren’t alone on this cold and spinning rock. Yippie! The [...]
Some of you may have noticed that *gasp* most of the custom pieces have been taken down from the shop. Please don’t panic. The sad, not so fun fact is that I, Amalthea, have RA. And the REALLY sad fact? I’m the ONLY one around here that does any of the dreads and/or falls. So [...]
