    And where to find it in "bundles" (not on a hide)? I'd prefer the "long, stringy" look rather than the "bushy" look.

    Me too, although I think washing and "conditioning" with a cream rinse, then drying in a straight configuration would address that problem.

    And I might add that I did a search on Google and then on Ebay and found a number of people selling sheared angora "locks" by weight. Quite reasonable too. But I didn't want to buy ten ounces, for instance and then find I only needed two.

    i suppose that one can dye the locks to a black, for contrasting tassels, with hair dye.?
