What Hairdos Can You Do With Bobby Pins?

Bobby pins are good styling aids, especially for unruly hair. A hairstyle that requires no hair to fly out or fall is difficult to create without bobby pins. There are many styles, from simple to elegant, that can be created with the use of bobby pins.

Messy Knot

This style is simple and only takes a few minutes to create, so is perfect if you are in a hurry. Take clean, dry hair and part it down the middle. Next, take two-inch-wide sections of hair on each side of the part and pin them back with bobby pins. Pull the rest of the hair into a low ponytail with your hand. Now coil the ponytail around itself until you have a bun. Pin the bun in place using bobby pins, but allow a few thin wisps to poke out.

Sweet and Simple Pulled Back Look

This style is youthful and simple, and is quite suitable for young girls and teens Part clean, dry hair down the middle or to one side. Spray a glossing mist on the hair and comb through with your hands. Pull back the sections of hair on each side of the part (make sure the pulled back pieces look even) and pin them in place.

Instant Bob

If you have long hair and want to wear a bob for a day without cutting your hair, this style will work for you. Style clean, dry hair as desired. When finished with your routine, use bobby pins to pin the hair ends under to whatever length you like. Make an "X" with the pins as you pin the ends to keep them secure. The hair will stay in place and will appear shorter.
