4.5
I waited a month to write this review to ensure durability. I have a pretty thick afro at 4.5" long and bushy. This pick is showing only minimal signs of wear, i.e. the black plastic tips (seem only cosmetic). The pins (bristles) are holding very well in the plastic grip.I used my friends (less than a week old) black fist pick and broke two pins (bristles) after 35-40 strokes. I am a little skeptical about all things manufactured in China, but this seems like a great product. I don't know how long picks are supposed to last, but I am going to buy a few more to save for later. I paid $9. Great deal! $2.50/pick and $4 s/h.
