When I first saw the hair pin I was immediately drawn to the minimalism of it, as it added to the overall elegant feel. Whether you’re drawing your hair back for work, or a chic look for an evening out, I promise you, don’t overlook the power of is little clip. And though I sit in the long hair club, this nifty little hair accessory can be used on mid-length or short hair too to create easy updos in literal seconds. The U-shaped pin can seem intimidating at first glance, (trust me, I was nervous, too) but I’ve figured it out and broken it down so we can all obtain that chic french up-do. And it’s as simple as twist, pin, secure.
