Lock picking is a skill that involves manipulating a lock's components to open it without the original key. Afros and wigs are two common tools used in lock picking. An afro is a type of lock pick that is inserted into the keyhole and manipulated to open the lock. A WIG is a type of lock pick that is placed over the keyhole and manipulated to open the lock. Both afros and wigs are effective tools for lock picking, but they require skill and practice to use correctly.
