Hi all! I am going on a short vacation until the 25th... Not sure if I will have internet access, but I will be checking in briefly every day if I do! Please still IM any customer service issues, it all gets shunted to my email and I will respond ASAP. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Hair Fair 2009!

2009-06-20T19:13:00.000-07:00

Its that time of year again!! Hair Fair!!

I have 5 hairs Hair Fair this year These styles will be available June 20 through July 4th at the Hair Fair.
Claudia - Short and choppy, my favorite of the bunch!
Maggie - Long and curled, with a braid holding back 1/2 of the hair from the face.
Savannah - Long and straight style, ultra sleek
Emily - Banded and braided style :)
Alexis - Beehive updo with colorchanging sticks

The demos are available at Hair Fair, in my store inworld and on XstreetSL . After Hair Fair is over they will be available back in my main store on the Nantli Xolal sim. The hairs Maggie and Emily have 50% of proceeds benefiting Locks of Love charity. Pricing is 200L for a pack and 1000L for the all color pack.

Also I am giving the style 'Muriel' out as a freebie at hair fair! Pick it up when you visit!!

Survival Guide to Hair Fair:
If you decide to go on the first few days of Hair Fair, expect a TON of people, lots of lag, and some sim crashes. Please be patient and polite to others at the Hair Fair. You can improve both your own lag and the lag of others by reducing the number of attachments and scripts you are wearing. There are some special free low lag avatars at each of the entry points, please grab one if you can! Collect all the demos first, try them out on a different sim and then go back for your purchases. Good luck!

New Release time at Goldie Locks!

----New Colors!-----
Wow its been a long time since I released anything! What have I been working on? New Hair Colors! I have been wanting to expand my color set for the longest time and have finally done it! I now have 163 or so colors to chose from! Of the 92 original colors, about 1/3 of them no longer available, some were just too similar or simply didn't work with the new way I did the textures. Pretty much every one of the original 92 colors have been tweaked or changed in some way, so PLEASE check the demo board by the door to see what colors you like and what packs they are in! The new colors come in packs of 8 colors, with 4 natural and 4 tipped, or 12 colors for the funky, skunked, or tipped packs. The prices are staying the same, 200L per pack and 1000L for the all color.

Feel free to give me feed back on the new colors... I hope I maintained a good range of colors so everyone can find something they like! I will slowly be converting all the vendors in the store to these new colors in the future months! (Its going to take me a while!)
----New Hairstyles!----
To go along with the new colors I have four new ones for ya!
Lauren - A sideswept loose and low bun
Fiona - Long and lovely layered hair
Sayomi - A razor cut medium length style
Regina - A cute little side ponytail

----Other Changes ----
These styles have a shiny new vendor to go along with the new colors... Its features include a lot of the requests I have gotten over the years....
1) OL demos
2) Pictures in each pack to help identify what hair it is without wearing it
3) Backup copies in case you mess up sizing/need a replacment
4) Resize scripts to assist with sizing to fit your head

----Don't Forget!-----
Don't Forget my 100 hairstyles SALE is still going on! All hairs 1/2 price on all packs and once November 30th hits they will no longer be available for sale, ever!

Hurricane Ike

2008-09-13T14:17:00.000-07:00

EDIT: 9/17/08 My power and internet are back, woot! Thank you to everyone for your well wishes! I think I have taken care of all the backlog of ims, if you still need help please IM me in world! Take care everyone!

Unfortunately I have been affected by Hurricane Ike, I didn't get a chance to wrap things up in the store and put up notices before I lost power. For all inworld IMs after Friday afternoon, I am not ignoring you, they are all going to my email and I will answer each and everyone of them when I get power back (and internet). Right now I am borrowing a friends computer at his house to put up this notice.

I and my friends are ok, my place is ok, there is just a lot of downed trees and debris all over the place. There are estimates we will be without power for 1 day to 2 weeks.... So I will take care of things in world as soon as I can. My apologies to everyone!!

Thanks!
Sel

Visit Mexico!

2008-04-03T17:41:00.000-07:00

Well opening day has finally arrived! I was working on a project over at the Visit Mexico sims from December to about mid-March. Lots of work and today's the day it opens to the public!!!

From the official press release:

Experience Mexico in Second Life (SL) like never before. Thrill to the exciting zip line ride through the rainforest canopy. Soar over the beautiful Misol Ha Falls and view the ruins of Palenque by hang glider. Marvel at the Olmec heads in La Venta Park. Explore Tulum’s beaches and ruins by horseback. Shop for beautiful Mexican artifacts in the colorful city of Campeche. Everywhere you look there is something new and exciting to do and see when you Visit Mexico!

The wonders of Quintana Roo, Chiapas, Campeche and Tabasco, the other four states that make up Visit Mexico Second Life, were added on to Chichen Itza, which was inaugurated in 2007 and has been visited by thousands of virtual tourists.

The inclusion of these four states in Second Life, and the opening of the two Sims in which they are located (Visit Mexico 2 and Visit Mexico 3), will enable visitors to become familiar with the major attractions of southeastern Mexico, and enjoy a special tour that goes beyond the imagination.

I worked on the Tulum ruins:

and the Palenque Temple of Inscriptions and Palace:

Check it out here!

Two new and updates!

2008-03-30T10:14:00.000-07:00

Well with windlight coming out soon and performance just dismal on my machine, I picked up a new computer and put it together last weekend! Never actually built one out of parts before but it turned out great. Windlight (which I can now run) works great and looks great! Unfortunately a lot of my editing software and vendor templates were on the old one, so it was a bit of a wrestling match to get these done :)!

Anyway, on to the hair!
Naughty - Long and wavy, a sweet look using sculpties!
Cheyenne - A curly ponytail with messy bangs!

-OTHER NEWS-
1) Mitya, Illusion Short, Velvet, Madeline, and Kiko have moved to the clearance section - 50L per color pack and 330L for a Mega color pack.

2) Anya, Laced Up, Dalia, and Roped have moved to the 10L hair section! Get Mega color pack for just 10L.

3) Lucky Chairs have been updated, check them out!

Cheers all!
