Blogging from A to Z challenge: K is for Ketylo

The Ketylo hair stick is something I don't think gets enough credit in the longhair circuit.

Although there are other hair tool makers out there who have tried to copy the idea, Ketylos have the best shape from what I've seen.

Why do I find Ketylos so brilliant?

Simple. The vague corkscrew shape. Not too much, not too little.

For someone with as much hair as me, it helps me with two important things:

1) Inserting the hair stick. Instead of pushing into a single, stuck track, you can screw the hair stick in. It helps the stick to find the path of least resistance through your hair instead of being forced in a pre-set path. You can never get the strain on your hair 100% uniform, so you want to avoid the high tension spots that can hurt you.

2) It helps ease the load of holding up the updo. If your updo doesn't feel completely comfortable, simply rotating the Ketylos can pinpoint a position where your stick is more comfortable than another. For someone who absolutely hates messing with her hair once it has been put up, this is an important point.
