(Black) - Spiral Bobby Pins Black/Brown with Storage Tin, 20 Pcs Spin Pins for Hair (2.4 & 5.1cm ), Premium Spiral Hair Pins for Buns, Non Scratched Twist Screw Hair Pins for Women Girls and Kids, ...

These are the best, they make a perfect bun and stay in place without feeling like something is poking your scalp like I feel when I use Bobby pins. I have brown hair so I like this colour.

I love these hair pins. My 9 year old granddaughter has really thick, down to her butt, hair and she refuses to wear it down so it has to be redone a few times a day with regular ponytail holders but these little pins hold it so good. I couldn't believe how well they worked and they were comfortable too. Win win.. I would recommend them to anybody who wears their hair up

I've been using the original spiral pins for many years, but wanted more since one bun can utilize 6-9 pins at a time. I was hesitant to buy a different brand because the originals have worked so well. Surprisingly, these from Amazon work even a bit better for my thick, coarser, wavy, & a lot of hair. Why? These are a bit wider in diameter than the original brand; the wider width accommodates my type of hair well. The original, slightly narrower ones work just fine, but these wider diameter ones grip a lot of hair better.Therefore, I can see why some reviewers don't like these. If one has finer, thinner, or not a ton of hair, the original brand may work better. I would recommend these for those who may have thicker or more hair.Now, I just use both these & the originals (mix & match) -- My bun doesn't move or loosen at all throughout the entire day when using these kinds of spiral pins.I read reviewers also state that they try not to cross the spiral pins, but I find that crossing - thereby locking - them can create a good, firm hold.Inevitably, the coating may scratch off a bit (as they have for my originals after 8+ yrs) but they're completely hidden in the hair and no one can see, and having the coating come off the originals hasn't caused any snagging of my hair. Let's hope these from Amazon stay snag-free as well!

These pins are a game changer! My sister and I both love them - one of us has thin hair and the other very thick. They work nicely for both types and don't dig in/cause pain like some more traditional pins.

I have very long and thick hair. Like I usually have to buy extra large hair clips to handle it. I was blown away that just ONE of these little spin pins can hold all my hair securely (though I use two or three just for safety). And they're small and cheap enough to just stash them everywhere in case of hair emergency.More comfortable than a claw if you have to lean your head back on a car or plane. Easier to use than a french fork. Smaller and less breakable than either of them.One star removed because the brown paint came off, but realistically it's hidden by your hair anyway.

My daughter had long, thick, curly hair. Getting all of her hair up in a bun for dance is keeping it there is a struggle!! These pins are AMAZING!! They are easy to use. The size is perfect. They held her hair in place for an entire day of performances and costume changes. Great value!
