Product Description

Thirty grams is heavy for a hair fork, and on this one it is the specification rather than an accident. Thick hair needs a fork with enough section in it to take the load without flexing, and a fork that flexes is a fork that works its way out over an afternoon.

Why the Head Is Wide

The prongs on this fork run close to parallel from a broad rounded head, rather than converging into a V. That is the right geometry for a large twist: parallel prongs sit either side of the bulk of the hair and hold by opposing tension, where a narrow V would try to pinch a section that is simply too thick to pinch.

It is also more comfortable. A V head presses on a small area of scalp; the wide U spreads the same load over twice the width. Customers who have given up on hair forks have usually only tried narrow ones.

Three Colourways, One of Them Unusual

  • Amber tortoiseshell. The default, and the one that sells everywhere.
  • Jade green stripe. A striped green sheet rather than a flat one, so the colour moves along the length of the prong. Almost nobody in this category runs a green, and it is the piece buyers pick up first on a stand.
  • Pearl cream. The soft neutral, and the one that suits grey and silver hair where tortoiseshell reads too warm.

No Metal, No Mechanism

A hair fork has nothing to break. There is no spring to lose tension, no hinge to seize and no metal to corrode — it holds by friction and by the geometry of the prongs against a twist of hair, and that is the whole mechanism.

It is also why the tips matter more than anything else on the piece. Ours are tumble-polished after cutting, so the prong slides into hair rather than snagging it. A moulded tip has a parting line running down its length, and that line is exactly where hair catches.

Specification

13.5 cm, 30 g per piece — cut from thicker sheet than our 14 cm two-prong fork, which is why it weighs half as much again on slightly less length. Three stock colourways, custom colours from 1,000 pcs.

About Cellulose Acetate

Cellulose acetate is a plant-derived, biodegradable material made from wood pulp or cotton fibers. Unlike petroleum-based plastics, it breaks down naturally over time, making it an eco-friendly choice for premium hair accessories. Its unique properties allow for rich color patterns — from classic tortoiseshell to custom marble effects — that cannot be replicated with standard plastics.

As a manufacturer with 25+ years of experience, EcoHairFactory has mastered the intricate process of cellulose acetate production — from sheet selection and pattern matching to precision cutting and multi-stage hand polishing. Each piece undergoes 8–12 finishing steps to achieve the signature smooth, glossy surface that defines high-end acetate accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions

Because it is cut from thicker sheet. Thick hair loads a fork hard, and a thin section flexes and works itself loose. The weight is the point, not a side effect.

Probably. The wide head needs a reasonable twist to grip against. For fine hair the narrow V profile on our two-prong fork is the better choice.

Cast, with the stripe running through the material. It is a genuinely uncommon colour in this category and it is worth carrying for that reason alone.

Yes, up to about 16 cm on the same profile. Beyond that the prongs get whippy and the fork stops holding well, so we would talk you out of it.
