Fine hairpin head jewelry is an indispensable accessory for creating a unique look. Each owner of long braids should have at least 10 different shapes. They allow you to make a bunch, curls, waves or a high shell. Next, we will take a closer look at the types of hair accessories and tell you how to use them correctly.

What are hair accessories?

All women’s hairpins are divided into decorative ornaments and functional invisible hairpins.

Functional invisibles are suitable for fixing both complex hairstyles and individual strands.

• clamps. You can’t do without them when you need to close the bangs and remove protruding hairs;

• spiral studs well fix heavy curls;

• twister consists of wire, foam rubber and fabric. It helps create beams and waves. They make different types of hair ornaments-twisters. The sophist twist is distinguished by holes at the ends and a clasp. French twist — a metal frame where strands are twisted, which are fixed with hairpins;

• heagami allows you to create exquisite styling — a shell, a bun or any other hairstyle with hair ornaments — in a matter of minutes. Curls are threaded and wrapped around two plates;

• bump — special hairpins-headbands to increase the volume of hair without bouffant at the crown. Two interlaced headbands lift and secure hair;

• donut — a soft disk that is pulled over the tail to create an elegant bun. It is made in three colors — brown, light beige and black to match the hair color.

Decorative hairpins allow you to complete any hairstyle — from everyday to formal:

• crests — accessories for long hair (photo) with a history of use dating back several decades. They allow you to securely fasten individual strands. Plates with teeth of different sizes and shapes are decorated with stones, flowers, rhinestones and other decorative elements, which turn the comb into the main accent of the hairstyle;

• installers — accessories in the form of combs for long hair. They consist of 2 plates with teeth connected by plastic spirals or rubber bands. All hair is fixed with one comb, the accent strand with another;

• crabs — one of the most comfortable accessories for long hair for a bun, tail or shell. These hairpins are made in various shapes and sizes. They consist of two toothed parts connected by a spring. Comfortable for daily wear, taking water procedures, playing sports;

• banana — a kind of crab that has the characteristic shape of this fruit and curved ends;

• hairpin-machine — the most common type of decorative hairpins, which is distinguished by ease of use and a variety of decor.

How to decorate your hair with hairpins so that your hairstyle lasts a long time

In order for the twister to firmly fix the styling, the length of the hair should be no less than up to the shoulder blades. On shorter and thinner strands, these beautiful hair ornaments do not hold well. It will be difficult if the curls are cut with a ladder or cascade, that is, they have different lengths and it is very difficult to put them in one bundle. So that they do not climb out of the hairstyle, you need to stab them with clips or stealth.

Sophist Twist is convenient in that its ears can be twisted or tied after the hairstyle is ready, which provides a more secure fit.

The French twister has a tapering mesh tube design. It helps to create an elegant shell and secure it securely with or without studs.

Hair accessories called heagami come from the Land of the Rising Sun. Their name is not accidentally similar to the word «origami». The strands, like paper, are folded into a certain structure — a bundle, a roll, a shell — using two metal plates with a slight elastic effect. They are covered with fabric, so they do not come into direct contact with the hair. Heagami variants are made in all shapes and colors. Fur or lace patterns are used on special occasions.

Heagami, unlike bumpits, does not add volume to the styling. However, with the help of this device, you can make a stylish bun at the back of the head, ideal for both everyday use and for going out.

For this you need:

• open the plates, thread the hair between them;

• straighten the strands well so that the hairstyle is neat;

• stretch the plates to the tips;

• wind the strands on the plates;

• press the ends of the hairpins — and it will curl itself into a bun.

Hair ornaments with the unusual name “bumpit” turn even the simplest everyday hairstyle into a work of art. They look great on loose curls.

Bumpit — a headband for placement on the back of the head and creating a neat bun. It was first used in the 1960s. Small teeth securely fix the strands.

In just a few seconds, you get an elegant hairstyle, like the most famous Hollywood movie stars.

The main types of decorative headbands for hair
