I got a bone hairstick for my birthday! Its a replica of a viking hairstick.
The first is a passage from the Völuspá in the Poetic Edda.
Þó hann æva hendr né höfuð kembði,
áðr á bál um bar Baldrs andskota. En Frigg um grét í Fensölum vá Valhallar - vituð ér enn, eða hvat?
He never washed hands, never combed head, till he bore to the pyre Baldr's adversary— while Frigg wept in Fen Halls for Valhǫll's woe.
Do you still seek to know? And what?

Polish Plaits, Weichselzopf, Hexenzopf, elflocks, kołtun, all names for awesome matted hairstyles by awesome people.
Worn in the past and still today by many.
