If you haven't cruised the isles of one of these stores you should. You may want to take the wife along for appearances sake <VBG> I found that they carried Manic Panic hair dye. The stuff previously mentioned by one of our fellow VFBers. It does come in some wild colors for $6.99. I haven't tried it out yet. They also have something I saw at the shows and heard about in my United Fly Tyers meetings. Synthetic Wig Hair for braiding. It comes in VERY large bundles for .99 - 1.99. The guys I saw use it for streamer fibers. You can blend it with flash or angel hair type materials to give it more life. I saw them create some pretty neat saltwater baitfish flies out of this. If you have an ethnic hair supply store in your area the selection is even better. They tend to carry some more of the vivid colors. I also found some pretty interesting nail colors for use on the flies. Had lots of fun, Deb
