... and people's reactions are quite something!
The first time, I had knocked out my hairstick taking off my apron after work, so I quickly took it and my pins out and shook out my (classic length) braid. One of my coworkers saw and said "holy ******* ****, where did all that length come from!?" Then she asked how long it is, and if it took ages to brush and put up.
The second time, a girl was asking how my hairstick worked, so I took it out to show her. She was amazed at how long my braid is and said "OMG, it just keeps going forever!"
Both times I happened to be wearing a simple ponytail, braided, then wrapped around a hairstick. Very easy to redo nicely, and also makes a smallish bun for the amount of hair I have.
As I almost never wear my hair down in public, people have no idea how long it is, and I guess I didn't expect a reaction, so I found both these incidents quite amusing and gratifying.
