Two ficarre's I want to trade for 60th street forks or something special

Amapola, I'm so glad you helped me and urged me to keep trying. I don't know why it suddenly does work, but I slept with my ficarre today and it was a Breeze. Also with loading wood blocks, it holds like a rock. This what I was hoping for! So thank you so much!

And I also think they look fabulous, I love your profile picture. It was one of the reasons I decided to ask for a ficarre, while I was still in a lurking mode. It's grip and elegance.

This has been a surprisingly helpful thread. Thank you Amapola for the tips on using a Ficcare and Ada-banana I’m really happy that you are having success with your new Ficcares! I’m enjoying mine more often now.

I'm glad that I'm not the only one who has been helped :-). Great that you enjoy it more often now, bokeh.

Farmer/lumberjill here - You mentioned wanting to find a braided bun. My go to for slippery just won't stay in place days is a braided nautilus. Most days I wear a log roll (but that does take a lot of length, I think I started to be able to do them around tailbone or classic), but there are days when even I just can't seem to find a comfy hold, and then it is the nautilus to the rescue. It is also my go to for running, weight lifting, yoga, etc. I like using the Ficcare on the farm since it is strong and doesn't stick out, so it is easy to put a Buff or bandana on to keep my hair from getting filled with dirt and sawdust.

I so look forward to a braided nautalius chronis, but now I just don't have the length for it.
I think it looks beautiful when you have the length to coil several braids over a ficarre.
Still wearing my ficarre everyday, slips sometimes and hurts sometimes, but now I just adjust them.
