    Question Fork direction?

    I was just wondering which way most of you most regularly wear your forks, I almost always wear mine vertically through the bun but recently ive noticed a lot of action shots with horizontal forks. So what kind of fork wearer are you..?

    Choose the option which describes how you wear it most often, I have purposefully avoided multiple selections

    I voted diagonally. I wear them vertically and horizontally as well, but diagonally works best with most of my buns.

    The only hairdos I can really do at this length are French Twist and Cinnabun, and I secure my hair fork diagonally in both-- down and pointing leftward.

    I've never worn a fork (only because I'm incompetent and kept putting off ordering one), but I was very curious to see the results people have posted. It's true that most people's updo photos show forks as being put in diagonal. It would be interesting to know which diagonal people use, and whether that's related to being right- or left-handed.

    I like mine best put in horizontally (left to right), but I'll also wear it vertically. Least often is diagonally, actually.
    I voted horizontally because that's the way I'm wearing it right now but between the two, I'm not really sure.

    I'm happiest with vertical.

    And I really thought that was what everyone did, but I guess I'm in a minority!

    Oh my goodness; I don't know! It depends on where the ends are and what kind of bun it is. Today's bun (a braided Gibralter) is held by a horizontal stick.

    Diagonal 2 to 7. As I'm right handed this is easiest.

    I wear them right to left for most buns, and vertical, or slightly to the right for the figure eight bun.
