Not for smooth textured hair.
I honestly thought this would be the perfect sized hair fork/pin to keep my workday bun in place, without poking me. Unfortunately, although it slid in through my hair without snagging, it also slid right out about every 2 hours all day long. By the end of the day it's two legs were bent together at the bottom and stayed as if it was molded that way. My hair is tailbone length lightly wavy and a medium-fine texture, sticks need to be spiral or bumpy to work, so I guess the same thing goes for pins.
