Goody Spin Pin!

There is a fine line between the "undone bun" and the "I didn't wake up in enough time to do anything with my hair" mess. The Spin Pin looked interesting enough to take a chance, so I went and picked up a pack yesterday.


Now, the commercial shows the girl with fabulous hair using only one Spin Pin, so I was surprised to see two pins in the pack. Well, maybe they include two in case you lose one? Nope, the directions specify to use two Spin Pins. This was slightly disappointing to me, as the commercial clearly only shows the girl with fabulous hair using one.
Lets see what these things can do.

Each pin is a little spiral, that looks like two giant bobby pins wound around each other. They also come in a lighter color for blonds, or darker for brunette.
The directions state that no pony tail holder is needed, so I gave it a try. They caution not to get the pins intertwined with each other while in your hair, so then that's all I could think about while putting them in! Will they have to cut my hair out if I get them intertwined?! What actually happens if...?

Oh get on with it! It's just hair!

I twisted my hair into a bun at the nape of my neck, and started twisting one pin in from the bottom right, and up across to the top left. The pin guides itself in, and as I let go, I expect my hair to fall out of the bun, but it doesn't! Interesting!
I twist the other one in opposite of the first, and my bun is solid!

We went out to dinner, my bun got knocked when John put his arm on my shoulders, went home, even lounged on the couch, and my bun was still secure. I've even tried working out with it, and it stayed in place. The other plus with the Spin Pin is that when you remove it, you have bouncy, wavy hair, unlike the dented hair you get when you remove a traditional bun held in place with ponytail holders and bobby pins.

I definitely give this product the thumbs up! Here's to fabulous and EASY summer hair!
