How heavy are my hair toys?
Not all hair toys in picture!
I have a bunch of sticks I never use and I didn't bother to weigh those.
Hm. I should throw those out. All they do is take up space and help unbalance the stick-jar.
Clips
Ficcare set: 60
g for both
Large soaring butterflies Flexi 8 set: 55 g for both
XL dream catchers Flexi 8 set: 85 g for both
XL night owls Flexi 8 set: 90 g for both
XXL Flexies: 50
g each except for:
XXL Greenish Flexi 8 (Forgot the name and they don’t make
them anymore): 45 g
XXL Tree of life Flexi 8 (White pearls) 35 g
The XL Flexies surprised me. Despite being a lot smaller
than the XXL ones, yet they weigh so much in comparison.
The XXL greenish one I forgot name of weighs the same as one
XL night owl. The XXL tree of life weighs less than one XL dream catcher.
I guess the weight really isn’t in the mass of the 8 or the
stick, but in the decoration.
Forks
4 Amish pins: 10
g in total
Ron Quattro starlites combo set, small fork: 5 g
Ron Quattro starlites combo set, large fork: 5 g
Ron Quattro copper fork: 25 g

The Ron Quattro forks are so light! No wonder the single
Starlites are my go-to!

It’s funny
how the single sticks mess with your head.
I would
swear up and down the single TimberstoneTurnings stick is the heaviest single
stick by far, but it’s only 5
gram heavier than the bone WoodArtJewelry stick and the
hair sword.
But it’s no
surprise that the large, massive wood Ric the combmaker sticks are the heaviest
set. Or that the simple Ron Quattros are among the lightest.
In comparison, what is the approx weight of your hair?
ReplyDeleteI know I weighed it once and found the weight pretty unimpressive. Unfortunately I can't find a blog entry about it, so I don't know if my memory serves me well, but I think somewhere between 200-220 gram? Since it was right before I met my hubby, my hair was around mid thigh-ish, so maybe I'm "up" to 250? I should weight it for sure :)
DeleteWell based on that, its easy to see that 20 or 30 grams is not much of an addition, but 90 could be especially if it is at the rearmost part of the hair where it would exert most leverage on your neck.
DeleteWhat a lovely assortment of beauties! :)
ReplyDeleteThank you :) I really should minimize my collection and get rid of those I never use anyways =/
DeleteI second Indi500fan's motion, would be curious to compare your beauties' weight with that of your mane.
ReplyDeleteAmazed on how lightweight your forks are! Thinking of Grahtoe's and how you have to distribute the overall bun+hair weight on top not to have a headache...
I had to look up Grahtoe because I couldn't remember what they look like, lol. I see why I don't own any: That type of forks doesn't work for me at all. I didn't know those were so heavy though! Can you weigh them? I'm curious now :)
