It has a warm white luster that deepens with wear.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSilver is softer than steel. The shaft will hold its shape under normal use, but very thick or heavy hair can cause gradual bending over time. This is not a defect — it is a property of the metal.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eFit \u0026amp; Care\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003eWorks well for fine to medium hair, or smaller buns on thicker hair.

Store away from humidity. Avoid contact with hairspray, perfume, or chlorinated water.
