Striped Ebony 5 Inch Two Prong Curved Hair Fork FPL 4 Inch Pick Pin Pic Comb Stick Black Dark Brown Grain 1 1/8" wide Bun Holder

This particular Hair Fork was the request of several customers who had "Special" up-do's that needed a Five Inch Length with an FPL of Four Inches. So I made a bunch for them and extras for the rest of you..... I hope it fits the bill !! The last picture shows some of the color variations the wood comes in.

This 5 Inch Southeast Asian Striped Ebony 2-Prong Hair Fork is curved to fit the contour of your head and is a compliment to my other Striped Ebony "Rustic Heavy Duty Hair Fork" and differs in that although it is five Inches long and lighter it has a longer FPL of 4". This Curved Hair Fork is made for those who want a smaller hair fork that is strong yet holds well, is not heavy so it can be used with thinner hair. It is only 1 1/8 " wide; 5 " long and less than 3/16" thick. The pictures do not do justice to this Hair Fork.

This Hair Fork is for those with Light, thin hair as the fork is light and strong and holds well.

The Functional Prong Length (FPL) is Four" for this 2-Prong Hair Fork and varies within 1/8" from piece to piece.

This Southeast Asian Ebony (Diospyros Sp) is very heavy and is thought to be a sub-species of Macassar Ebony as the wood is found from Indonesia to India and known by different names throughout the area. There are something like 450 Ebony species know in the world but only a few grow to any size to make commercial lumber out of. For more info see macassarebony.com .

These Hair forks are being made out of Laos Rosewood and/or Striped Ebony so there are twelve different listings here on Etsy .


The Hair Forks are finished with a lacquer coating and rubbed out to a semi-gloss finish and waxed with Johnson Paste wax.


The last picture shows several different colors and grain patterns and is just to show the variety that this Hair Fork may come in. The listing is for only one Hair Fork.

As a matter of caution some of the Forks 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 Hair Forks not to your liking I will take them back.

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
