How many hairtoys does a person need?? What kind of a question is THAT? That's like saying "How much AIR does a person need"!!!!

I know that I have an absurd amount, don't even want to count.

BUT -- at least I've dramatically slowed my shopping/purchasing!

I know I need to weed through them and put some up for swap but it's really difficult at my current length to know what to get rid of. I have some things that are gorgeous but way to big for me and yet I hate to part with them because I keep thinking one day I'll 'grow into' them and then I'll regret getting rid of them too soon.

My biggest addiction, no doubt is hair sticks. Love 'em, love 'em, love 'em. Hairsticks have a simple elegance to me, both in their style and in the way they are used and if they are hand-crafted, even better.

The good thing is, although I'm still looking, at least I now know what I'm looking for and I'm getting very choosy now that I have so many. So I look a lot but buy very little. Perhaps there is hope for me yet.

I woudl hang onto the ones you haven't grown into yet. It is a good reason to keep growing

I'm not even going to try to count how many I have. A lot, more that 20 that's for sure.

Depends on how you define "hairtoy" because if you count every hairpin or elastic I have way more than 20, but I only have a few nice forks/sticks. I haven't got addicted to them, but mainly because I've just found that pins hold more securely/reliably than forks or sticks, so I just wear them once in awhile.
