Furnival's Workshop

No worries, cat!

I've found helix forks are my holy grail of hairtoys, and with a hoard of them I'm happy to share any info. I can.

I am having a helix fork made and have some questions about length. I’ve never used a helix before, so that’s one issue. I will check out the helix thread suggested by Crystawni (thank you!) but mostly I’m wondering about length, especially how much extra length is reasonable when one is still growing towards a goal? Any thoughts on that, seasoned wood helix fork users?

Hope you were able to pick a length! I usually get enough length to maybe "grow into" when I can, but no clue how that would apply to helixes.

Thank you! I think so too - it's exactly what I like: minimal, a bit geometric, and a bit chunky.

I got my Furnival! I lovelovelove it. It is minimal but beautuful, smooth, long, and stays in my initial braided bun very well. This may become a staple fork.

I also recorded an unboxing video because I thought that would be slightly unusual and fun.

Pretty! Love that you made an unboxing video also, wish there more of those around, they are so fun to watch... I'm going to go watch yours right now!
