U-shaped Hair Pins - Straight, 3in (1 pack, Black)

Just what does needed.

Been an adult for decades and finally decided to learn how to do a bun. Watched a few YouTube videos and ordered these. It took a few tries, but now I can hold my hair, which goes down to my legs, up in a bun w only 3 of these--all day. I just twist my hair and then wrap it around itself. Then I take one of these and go through the outside pass with it--in the opposite direction of the bun. Then I reverse and move it towards the bun, scooping up some hair from the base of the pass. Then I weave it up into the center of the bun, down to scoop some more hair, and back up into the center. 3 in ones. Holds all day. One in the back and one on each side.

I'd always purchased plain silver-tone ones from our local Amish store, but we've moved away from there. My hair is thick and long, so regular bobby pins don't work, and I'm tired of the chintzy little clips. And then I found these!Pros:- 3" long is great to hold coils or braids of long/thick hair- color blends in with brunette hair- strong, do not bend easily- inexpensive so if you lose a couple ... and you will!, it's not a huge loss- ends are well roundedCons:- the color is a bit odd

Very sturdy hairpins. The brown color is nice. They are a little price, but they are good quality.

I’ve done my hair in buns for ballet for over 25 years. I’ve NEVER been able to just use 4 pins to hold it up until THESE. They’re magic. There’s a bit of technique to using them correctly - just look up Megan Fox Unlocked or any other mennonite youtuber hair tutorial to see the very simple method. I literally use 4 to pin my almost bottom of my back length hair into a perfect flat bun.
