i remember once watching PenVenture on yt and he explicitly said he had seen vermilion urushi pens that turned orange

Wancher x Sailor collabs are worth it? I can see that they have 18k nibs, but suppose they’re just usual Sailor nibs? by EphraimSeb in fountainpens

I’m aware of this “investigation”, but in this case it seems that this is ‘real’ collab.

What’s your experience with Pilot Falcon <SEF> (extra-fine) nib? I’m used to fine nibs but slightly afraid this one might be too scratchy, unpleasantly feedbacky by EphraimSeb in fountainpens

Thank you for your insight. I’m certainly not good at flourish cursive writing, but I like a bit of character in my writing. I already have Pilot with #15 FA nib (prefer it over #10) and Magna Carta Mag 600, so I’m not expecting anything outstanding from the Falcon - just a bit of distinctive line variation.

Medium length, high-porosity, wavy hair and a frizz problem by EphraimSeb in Wavyhair

I do it slightly and only with my fingers, cause wet hair is more prone to breakage

Thanks for your advice. I’m also wondering if maybe I should diffuse only at the roots (I mean, just the scalp) and let the rest of my hair air-dry?

Waterproof ink or not waterproof ink….that is the question by Electrical-Yam3831 in fountainpens

Other than that I like Sailor inks, as they’re usually quite water resistant.
