Oooo, so pretty. I just ordered a 4 prong fork yesterday--it's my first. I'm nervous and I hope I'll love it.
Don't forget the action pics!

Wow, I have been eyeing that one for ages - can't wait to see how it looks in action! (It would be a decorative piece in my bathroom until my hair gets a bit longer, so I'm glad it went to you!) :)

Sort of hijack-ish question, but, are there any differences between 2,3, and other multipronged forks? Just curious.

Yes, there should be. I only have three pronged forks, just for the simple fact that I like them better than the two pronged. I THINK the three prong ones will hold better than the two pronged ones, however this depends on your hair of course. Mine is very slippery and WILL hold with a two prong but only spaced wider apart. 60thstreet HAS those, just that I don't like the looks of them much.

Just remember they do custom work for you as well! If it is not on the site, simply ask and they will make it if they have the wood :)

Really nice, wish I could find any of those here in Sweden, the shipping cost would kill me ;)

I just looked it up for you.. their 6USD shipping to Sweden will not kill you ;)

Their overseas shipping charges are actually very reasonable.
I am eyeing off a 3-pronged fork or two for my birthday. ;)
I just have to decide on the colours.

Not to enable further of COURSE but 60th St. has very quick shipping! He shipped it out the same day! I'll probably get it tomorrow or Monday!

I am also ordering a 3 prong (My first) from 60th street! They are custom making it for me, I'm trying to lock down on what color I want lol. I'm leaning towards Sunny Skies atm. (Blue and Yellow)

I love the lemonwood fork--how beautiful!
My new fork passed the flamenco test--one of hour of stomping, turns, and head snapping, and still holding:
