HOW TO
No matter what hairstyle you want to do, U-shaped hair pins can help you achieve it. The best part is that they're easy to use, especially once you get the hang of it. Remember, practice makes perfect. Whether a causal or elegant updo, here's how to use u-shaped hair pins, step by step.
I am a REAL celeb hairstylist...
...and these pins have changed my LIFE!! YES LIFE CHANGING!! I needed to do a scene where the actress pulls 1 pin out of her hair and her hair comes tumbling down, on cue. (over and over, like 6 takes) I used one large black Frenchie pin and it worked perfectly!! They are flocked so they hold the hair perfectly and are virtually undetectable to the eye (or digital camera)...AMAZING HAIR PINS! 5 STAR!
I didn't know I needed them, until I got them.
These hairpins are fantastic. I have hair that reaches the middle of my back and needed so many traditional bobby pins to do any type of updo. Of course, they NEVER stayed secure because my hair is fine and straight. These are really great because they actually work. My favorite types of buys are practical but innovative. Fills the bill. Will hold long and short hair neatly and securely without all the futzing around. Highly recommend.
Great pins for an updo. I like the fact that the pins have a coat on them that is the color of my hair and not shiny like most pins. I have shoulder length hair and I can only do a french twist because of the length of my hair. I watched a youtube video on the updo and when I tried it at home the pins fell out. Now with the coated pins they stay put and you cannot see them. They also hold the hair much better than any pins I have used in the past and they come in a variety of sizes. I am happy I bought them.
Comfortable, easy to use, great staying power
I'll start off by saying I've never really done updos or used a hair pin before in my life, and I didn't watch any videos, so I don't think I'm using them right. Even with that in mind: I did a simple braid bun this morning (first attempt) and these pins kept it in place through a 9 hour workday, a run, and walking the dogs after work without any pieces falling out. Plus, they were so comfortable, I barely felt them. Definitely will buy again when I inevitably lose a few and would definitely recommend them!
Could not find blonde long Bobby pins anywhere & these are so much better, they hold your hair style & don't hurt your head or pull your hair out!! I'm buying more 😁
FAQ's
The French hairpin is the classic U-shaped hairpin that allows the flexibility of styling your hair in various styles. They have become a trendy yet affordable way of grasping your hair and ensuring they stay in place for longer durations.
I have an answerFrenchies are commonly used in a wave-like motion. Secure your hair in the style you want and slightly push the French pin inside, when the pin touches your scalp, change its direction so that it becomes parallel to the skin, and voila it’s done. However, a video tutorial will clearly explain the process to help you understand the process better.
If you are creating a French twist hairstyle, then you can safely secure it with a French hairpin. Match the color of your hairpin with your hair to create a seamless look. Add any hairstyling accessory to accentuate the hairstyle even further.
Just take a section of your hair where you will be putting the French hairpin and spray it with lots of texturizing sprays to create volume and a gritty texture. Also, tease that section of your hair to further create a surface and then twist and secure it with the pin.
UNIQUELY DESIGNED
Our innovative product comprises a traditionally U-shaped French hairpin flocked with a fiber coating, which creates a high-friction surface to hold the hair in place.
