Review (3/5): You get what you pay for!
Two of them broke within the first week of their use. The other two, although made of two pieces instead of one solid piece, seem to be holding up okay, but I've been pretty careful with them because I don't want to break them. I really like them. The two that broke were made of part bone and part wood, and were very thin and flimsy to begin with. The second two are all bone, and a little thicker. But I will say it's not a bad deal for $10. You get what you pay for, and for the price, I'd say it's worth it. Other hair sticks are $10 each! But my hair is very thick, and in my case I think next time it would be worth the extra money to invest in a more solid product. I found wooden knitting needles at the local Bi-mart for less than $5 a pair that hold up better than these. I will not be buying these again.
