(eta: I should add...I don't actually HAVE a massive fork, but I would like to get one! I'll need a 'do for it! :D )
I got inspired by a post from Darkwaves (http://forums.longhaircommunity.com/showpost.php?p=1339352&postcount=8) back in November, where she posted "a massive fork" for sale. I just LOVE the do she has in the pics in her thread, but just can't master this one. DWs has sent me instructions (thanks, DWs!!), but I'm just not able to do it.
I would like to be able to do some dos :) that use larger forks. Right now I use Ficcares and single sticks (or occasionally a 2-3 prong fork just to be different). I do cinnamon buns and French twists with the Ficcares because I can't get a stick or fork to hold either of these. Actually I can now get a fork to *just* work on a cinnabun, but it's not securely enough to wear outside the house (I avoid pins when possible). Any cinnabun I do is the proverbial "tight, mean lady bun" because a loose one won't hold -- they have to be twisted tight and coiled tight...and as such a fork with anything but thin prongs won't get through.
Can anyone suggest do ("big" do's preferred) that could be done with a giant fork?
