We all know the power of a good hairstyle. It boosts our confidence and enhances our personality. One day, you may crave something classy and sophisticated. Something like a low bun with subtle wisps at the front. The next day, there’s this uncontrollable urge to transform into a true femme fatale, gracing the scene with messy updos or gorgeous waves. What if we tell you we found a perfect hair accessory to complement both looks?
French pins are U-shaped hair accessories that have recently become a new TikTok sensation. And, honestly, we’re not surprised. There’re endless ways to use French pins since they may function as a basic elastic or a good old claw clip. Watch these easy French pin hair tutorials to adorn your locks next time.
This updo is as airy and textured as a freshly baked croissant. And just like the iconic French pastry, a French twist is something you can’t get enough of. The best thing? With a French pin, this updo takes less than a minute, so it may easily become your next go-to hairstyle for any occasion. Just pull your hair back and hold it in one hand as if you’re about to do a low ponytail.
Then, start rolling the hair around the forefinger until it takes the form of a tube. Tuck the hair ends in the roll and insert the French pin vertically from the top to the bottom of your head in a sewing motion (weaving in and out through the hair). For a lasting effect, consider using texturizing products like mousse and finishing spray. Add some red lipstick at the end, and that’s it – the French girl aesthetic is on!
French pins are also popular because they work well with any hair type. So, all those thick-hair beauties may now breathe a sigh of relief because this hair accessory holds the hair better than any claw clip. The trick is quite similar to the French twist, but this time, you twist your hair into a low bun. After that, weave the French pin throughout the bun. And don’t worry if there’re some loose strands. The messier – the better! That’s the whole point.
This half-down hairstyle with a French pin deserves all the praise from the hair community. Comments like “Love this” and “Amazing” prove this hairstyle to be a success. To repeat it, curl your hair with your favorite curling technique first. Then, separate a smaller hair section at the top of your head and twist it in a loose bun, leaving the ends. Grab your French pin and secure a half-bun with it. Voilà! You’re ready for a date night in the city of love!
These hair tutorials prove that the French pin era is in full swing, and it’s high time to embrace the trend with all the vigor of a beauty maven.
