Length also increases leverage.

Length also increases leverage. Two attachments with similar mass can behave differently if one places weight farther from the base. Longer, asymmetrical or poorly directed fans can rotate or snag. Shorter designs can create considerable density with less unnecessary leverage. Write down why you chose the fiber, length and fan size, then inspect grow-out at future visits. Twisting, discomfort, breakage or premature loss prompts reassessment. Do not solve a load problem by applying a larger adhesive bead.
