Frenchies Velvet Hairpins
Frenchies velvet hair pins are the original flocked French hair pins that celebrity stylists, brides, and dancers rely on when a hairstyle absolutely has to hold. Our U-shaped pins are coated with a proprietary flocked fiber finish that grips your hair like nothing else on the market — no slipping, no poking, no scratching your scalp.
Unlike traditional bobby pins or metal U-pins, Frenchies stay invisible in every hair color. Choose from five shades — blonde, brown, black, grey, and red — in both small (2") and large (3") sizes. The small works for fine hair and precise placements. The large is built for thick hair, long hair, and statement buns that need real structural hold.
Professional hairstylists use Frenchies backstage at Fashion Week, on film sets, and on the red carpet. Our pins have been featured in Vogue, Elle, InStyle, and Glamour. Whether you're a stylist stocking up for your kit or a client building your home styling arsenal, this is the collection that started it all.
Who these are for
- Anyone frustrated with bobby pins that slip or poke
- Brides wanting updos that survive the whole reception
- Dancers, figure skaters, and gymnasts who need bulletproof buns
- Professional hairstylists and salon kits
- Everyday wearers who want comfortable, no-damage styling
How to pick your color
Match to your natural hair color for undetectable hold, or go deliberate with red or black for decorative contrast. If you're between shades, size up rather than down — Frenchies disappear into darker hair more easily than lighter.
