RoyalWulff 0 Report post Posted December 24, 2007 I recently bought a griffin extension hair stacker. But when I stick anything in it to stack and try to pull out the insert to remove the hair, the hair is always left inside the hair stacker. This does not happen with my other griffin hair stacker. ANyone else have this happen? is there a solution? Phil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grunt 0 Report post Posted December 24, 2007 Turn the stacker parallel to your bench and slowly ease the tube out of the stacker. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

longears 0 Report post Posted December 24, 2007 Ditto, I like to use a sheet of "bounce " and run it through thr inner tube several times. Hair gives off alot of static electricity. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RoyalWulff 0 Report post Posted December 24, 2007 I always turn the staker parallel to my bench. I was thinking that some of the not so straight tips of hair are getting caught in the bottom section of the hair stacker. If anyone is familier with the adjustible type you will know when looking down into it, there is a chance for that to happen. Has anyone else experienced this?

TxEngr 0 Report post Posted December 25, 2007 RW - I had the same problem and just quit using the stacker. Must be something in the design. Now use the AK Best stackers and love them. b.p. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flytyingscotsman 0 Report post Posted December 26, 2007 I have that same adjustable stacker and also quit using it (as intended anyway). Try stacking with only the brass insert tube :- With the tube sitting vertically on the bench, load your hair tips first into the flared end of the tube as per usual. While holding the tube vertically on the bench in your hand, knock it on the side with your other hand several times to make the hair stack. Lift the tube at 45 degree angle and pinch the hairs between thumb and forefinger of other hand. I gave my son a little piece of copper pipe and he uses it to stack with this technique.
