The hair sticks thread---all about hair sticks (pictures included)

jupitermoon I placed an order today with the Longhairloom. I am so excited about the sticks I ordered. I will show them when I receive them. Thanks so much for the link!:yep:
 
Okay, here are some 7 inch Ketylos with toppers. I think they look best worn as singles. When I wear my hair natural again I'm going to work on getting one stick to hold my hair. @mwedzi, does it all the time and her hair is also natural and thick. I like the look of one stick holding the hair:

Thank you. It's my natural color. I've thought about doing henna, but my hair is prone to dryness and splitting due to dryness because it's so coarse. My coarse hair doesn't take color easily either.

Lol! My baby is always making funny faces. :lol:
 
I am so in love with my new Timberstone Turnings sticks. Here's one. The wood is holly and the inlays are crushed dyed pink pearls and silver. His work is so nice, like, the highest skill requiring pieces I have. And the finish he puts on his sticks is unbelievable smooth.

This other is also holly inlaid with turquoise and silver. It was a gift since I was the first to show them how beads are mounted onto a stick, so the heart stick above was their first beaded design.

I love those sticks. I requested one for mother's day and my husband just didn't get it. He didn't understand why a hair toy costs so much (never mind he bought me a bracelet and earrings for not much less). I explained that it's really a piece of art. I'm gonna keep working on him!

Aw, that's too bad. But at least you got earrings and a bracelet! Not too shabby! :yep: He has to think of the hair toy as just another piece of jewelry, which is really what it is. Jewelry for your hair. When he thinks of it as jewelry, suddenly, it's cheap! :lol:
 
darn it I kept reading and I see I need apl hair to rock these. I love hair sticks and OP I loae firt post like yours. So much info and your hair is thick and pretty. I can't wait to wear these or make buns.

Droid typing leads to typos for me
 
I found a really cool artist that does acrylic forks. Never seen anything like his stuff (see first attachment). I would love to come up with some unique picture for a custom one. Anyone ever heard of Rasoum on Etsy?

Check out this youtube of some of his designs:

There are some very pretty sticks in this thread! I can't wait for my hair to be long enough to use these. Beautiful!
 
My latest hair stick additions from the Long Hair Loom. I love the earrings they made to go with the Asian sticks!:yep:

Thanks for posting! I was feeling a little lonely in here! :) I love your hairsticks. The white sticks are bone right? I have a couple like that.

I got a really pretty fork from Crystal Mood. They have some really inexpensive sticks for those who are interested in trying sticks without commitment. This fork was 14.50 and came in a really pretty box.

Thank you. :) You do have to be careful because you will go broke messing around with this hair jewelery!

Speaking of going broke, why yes, I do have a link to the vendor. :lol: Prepare your heart, and your wallet. Lucky for me, I got the blue one for $1.

Yesterday, I wore my blue hair comb from Ketylo.

I wore blue eyeshadows too:

^^^^I put the blue second to the last on the entire lid. I put the blue on the end on the outer 1/3 of the eyelid. I applied black to the outer outer V and outer half of the crease. I used the color on the far right as my highlighter. I used the green in the inner corners after applying the blue. I blended all of this with a blending brush. Finally, I lined the lower part of my upper lid with the blue color second to last I think. One coat of Sephora mascara was used on the lashes.

Today, I wore the BEV style 3 prong Tapestry Dymondwood hair comb, but my eyes matched the Blushing Lime toppers from the Ketylo sticks. I didn't realize this until after I had finished applying my eyeshadows. I should have worn those hair sticks instead.

Here's how my eyeshadows looked today:

Versus the sticks with the Blushing Lime toppers:


I applied green on the lids and dark purple in the crease (outer half) and V. I lined the bottom part of the upper lids with dark purple. I lined the lower lids with the green then lined the outer half of the lower lids with the dark purple. The same highlighter pictured above (used for the blue) was used. I used one coat of Sephora mascara on the lashes.

More hair sticks:
