One Teak 6 Inch Handmade Wooden Spiral Hair Stick Pick Pin Pic Bun Holder Shawl Pin Brown Tan Hair Accessory
$11.35 $13.35
Teak wood ( Tectona Grandis) has been used in the boat building for over 150 years and is used for outdoor furniture a lot due to its high oil content. This gives Teak great resistance to weathering as well as pest invasion. Over time Teak will turn to a silver-grey color which can be readily seen on the decks of yachts. It is very strong and makes fine Hair Sticks as it is usually just finished by buffing and waxing.
One of the best things about using Teak for hair Sticks is the variety of grain patterns and colors that you come across. Tans with dark stripes are easy to find and the grain though mostly straight can be found in very interesting designs. Teak is truly beautiful and you will be happy with these sticks.
This Spiral Hair Stick is 6 inches long and undulates from 1/2" at the top down to a point. The Stick is about 1/4" in thickness , a tan to deep brown color and and able to hold lots of hair securely. I make Similar Spiral Sticks out of many species of wood and this Teak Spiral Stick is as strong as any of the hardwoods I use with the exception of Ebony and the Hardest of the rosewood Varieties..
I consider this stick to be one of my strongest and I would classify it as having good holding power rather than many of my other sticks that I would classify as more decorative with medium to lighter holding power. The use of Hair Sticks as "levers" is not a good idea as most Hair Sticks are decorative and they will break under excess stress

As a matter of caution some of the sticks will be sharper then some people like and I therefore recommend that you blunt the tip with an emery board to the degree of sharpness you want.
If you find any of my sticks not to your liking I will take them back.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why don't you ship outside of the USA ?
I will consider and have shipped to other Countries but only after we agree on prices and shipping. This must be done through the Convo system here on Etsy and is not available for all items due to the weight and shipping restrictions on some of my items.
I will however ship to friends or relatives of customers who are located in the USA and then they can make shipping arrangements to the customers location overseas.

This hair stick is beautifully made and lightweight. The waves in the stick allow it to hold my thick, long hair more securely. The seller also included a stainless steel version as a gift which was a lovely addition. Shopping was quick too! I highly recommend so far :)
