Hi Mimi i just wanted ti say that I observed that you insert the bobby pin in with the wavy part up... My advice is to put them with the wavy part down because that's specially formed to grip your hair and pin it in place. Ps: Love your videos!😘

Thank you! That is why I even watched this video was to find out which way the flat side goes! lol I wasn't looking for different hair designs, but the proper way to pin.

a video on how to use u pins too,, they just slip away and so does my hairstyle, i cant even do a twisted bun using them.. :'(

I thought when using bobby pins the side with the waves was suppose to be facing your head instead of the way she did it

@MrsLadyBree Hi love, please e-mail us at info@luxyhair.com with photos to show us the issues you have described and we'll do our best to help you out.

The flat side is longer than the textured side, so no.

I'm not trying to hate or anything but this video didn't help ): I slid the bobby pin in my hair and my hair just fell back, I don't open it either because I read somewhere to not do that and stuff. I have a lot of hair, too, but idk if that has to do with anything but can anyone help I'm so lost like lately I've been wanting to do hairstyles with my hair but I'm restrained because so many hairstyles use bobby pins and I have no clue at all how to use them xc

I always have problems with bobby pins too. I keep wondering if they were only made for a certain hair length. My hair is almost 1 meter / 40 inches long and whenever I see a tutorial I'm like... Yeah, nice, but my messy bun is so heavy it will just fall off my head, no matter how many bobby pins I put in there.

Basic vids like these are great! My Mum was a bit of a tom boy, so most of the things I know about hair, I learnt from YT! I didn't know how to French braid until I was 21. Thanks youtubers!

You should use blond ones, for the video purposes, it is hard to see them. :)

Are the bobby pins supposed to go in ridges down?

@belladancer5328

Yes the bumpy part is supposed to be down so the flat side pushes the hair into the groves which holds better and tighter 😄

Thank you for being so kind and helpful to other women. That is so sweet and nice.

Really helpful! Btw, the song in the background is Icing by Charity Vance, I went to high school with her and she's super sweet. She actually wrote that song about her best friend who also went there. :) So awesome that her music is being heard all over the place now, I'll have to share the video with her!

wow this literally changed my life thank you!!!!

I'm a dude with long hair and this is going to be super helpful when I'm at work. Thanks!

I'm italian and I always follow your videos. thank you so much i'm improving my english with you and your sister. you are fantastic!!!!

When you said "a lot of people have been requesting this tutorial" in my head I'm like that was me!!! I really didn't know how I'm learning so thank you so much I love all your videos!!!!!!

how she did that half up, half down style so effortlessly and it still came out PERFECT ... im jealous!!!

I've been watching a bunch of videos on doing hairstyles, and I can't believe how all of you can do your hair by yourself without mirrors! I guess you get used to it?! But I sure haven't gotten used to it!

I recently saw a pic on facebook about using bobby pins saying use the grooved side down to catch and hold hair better and when I tried it worked much better :)

I love that you used Charity Vance's song! So glad she has become so popular!

I got my hair done up at a salon for my prom 4 years ago and I saved all the bobby pins they put in my hair and I still use them today because they are AMAZING. I have no idea where they got them though.

we are not asking about the styles. we want to know which way to put it in??

I just had to respond to this video! I have been using bobby pins forever, but never thought about "twisting" them so they lock in place. I have only just put them in, and always wondered why they would fall out. So thanks so much for this! :)

I don't know what some people have against this Video. I think basics are important and you won't get far without them.

it may seem simple for most but for me this was right on time. My little guy uses my hair clips as "monsters" so I was out of them last night and trying to put my hair up with bobby pins and it kept falling off. For the life of me I could not keep it up, now I know what I was doing wrong. THANKS SO MUCH!!!

I always thought it was normal that bobby pins would be wide after the first use. I never knew there's actually different quality's in them. so helpful!

I really really appreciate that you took some times to do this tutorial. I always had troubles keeping those BP on my hair. Thanks so much!

I literally got bobby pins like 15 minutes ago and I wanted to know if I should open them or leave them.Thank you so much.This helped

Yay! Basic how-to videos are awesome. It seems silly that there is a proper way to use a bobby pin. Clearly I wasn't putting it on correctly because my hairstyles would never last. Thanks for the video!

I love this basic tutorials. Back to basics is a great idea.

@PatsTreasuresNCrafts My pleasure Pat

Oh my goodness. I feel so stupid. I didnt know there were two of you! How lovely!

thank uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu sooooooooooooooo much ... i finally know how to put them in ... use to have bobby pins that didnt even had the small blobs on the edges..... and they use to scratch my scalp and i use to wonder how easily u could put them in ..........nowwww i finally knowwwwww.............Im ever so grateful...

I have always thought it was my hair when the pins wouldn't stay, and all along it was those cheap drugstore pins that I was using! I never knew there was a way to use the pins either, I just always did what I saw my mom, grandma, aunts, etc, do and yes, I alywas used my teeth to open the pins too until now when I watched this video. So helpful!

this was so helpful for the bun and half style. i usually just slide them in and after awhile they would slide out. thank you so much

THIS IS SO HELPFUL bc i NEVER knew of this technique!! PLEASE DO MORE!

The song is called Icing by Charity Vance, my friend is very close to her! They've been friends for a long long time. Charity was also on American Idol :)

i love how she takes 2 min to show how to do something complicated in her hair and 7 min to learn about bobby pins

Thanks for this! I've been through fifty other ones and this is the only one I understood!

you explain so nicely!!!! I wish teachers could explain things that way and make subjects way more interesting!!

I clicked on this at the first second when i saw this video on the side 'cause i get so excited when i see one of my subscription post up a new vid! :P

thank you so much! i've been dying to learn the thirs method all this time but i dint know how to, thanks to you i do.

At first, I laughed at the idea of watching a video on using freaking bobby pins but then I watched it and I learned SO MUCH! haha! Thanks for this video!

Omg, yes! Bobby pins never work for me, until now!! You guys are awesome

@constanzelabest That's what I love to do- easy and simple hair tutorials:) There are many other complicated hairstyles on youtube I'm sure you can search for:)

This is something so simple, but I never knew how to properly do it. So thank you for this video! :)

I love Sally's hair pins! It's the only store in my area that I know of that carries the longer hair pins which I have to use on my long hair. Sally's pins hardly ever stretch out and they hold my hair amazingly! The only time I ever have to buy more is when I run out cause my friends are always borrowing them. Lol

thanks its very helpful video

Omg! That was so helpful I am constantly trying to use bobby pins with my super thick hair and I think I will start using that twist thing to secure it!

@tharjini22 nothing to be embarrassed about love:) we are all always learning:)

I never bothered with makeup and fancy hair when I was younger. Hair for me has always been wash, brush, let air dry and chuck a headband on to keep it out of my face. Now I am 35 - last year my goal was to learn makeup, and thanks to much nicer products these days and the wonder of the internet I did! Next year the goal is hair! Thank God for back to basics videos like this for clueless people like me!

Goody has been a really good brand for me so far. I haven't used their bobbypins (not avaliable in my local store), but all of their other products have worked really well for me.

i love every room shes made videos in!

@dancer35305 hundreds of people that requested this tutorial:)

This video was actually super helpful! I had no idea why bobby pins didn't work for my up-do's now it makes sense. Thanks so much! :)

I live in US and I always get the bobby pins from Sally's beauty supply that are made in Japan. They are sooo good!

I agree -those are THE best bobby pins ever!! I always buy the octagon shaped container of them from Sally's.

I searched for a video like this for so long, thank you very much :-*

Thank you for this video. I wasn't sure how to use them, so now I will definitely give it a go.

Thank you for showing the updo technique, I've always wondered on that one and you are so fast when doing them in the tutorials! Now I get it. And I'll stop with using my teeth and buying cheap bobby pins! Tomorrow, I'll buy good ones from Sally's!

when i started watching this video i was like come on..bobby pins???lol i know that..!! but now i realize that there was a reason for not having a perfect hairstyle!! :O omg i got it all wrong..ty so much girl!!!

I thought this was very helpful actually! Bobby Pins confused me and never understood them, now I do and I can do more with all my hair.

Thank you for the tutorial! I have been using the goody ones...the cheap ones. No wonder they didnt hold long!!!

In the UK Boots own brand bobby pins are excellent. They come in black, brunette, red, blonde and platinum. Large, medium and short lengths. I think the larger branches stock more and sometime they have more or less stock depending on time of year and hair fashion. I've had mine for years and they are still tight, usable and most importantly, comfortable and secure. :-)

Thank you for this video, I didn't know the last technique for the half up half down look, really helpful ! Thank you !

i use bobby pins by conair; you can usually find them at claire's or icing packaged kind of like a pack of matches/lighters; they're super convenient and i always have one with me wherever i go!

@LilacChromatic thank you:) Me either

Thanks, Mimi! The basics videos are exactly what I need! ;)

this is too funny! I'm 19, and I've NEVER been able to figure bobby pins out. in theory, yes, but I just can't get it. earlier today, i sat myself down and forced myself to figure it out (which I did) and now you're posting this!! :D guess I could've actually done homework for that half hour or so that it took me to figure it out! heehee

OMG SOMEONE ELSE ON THIS PLANET THAT KNOWS CHARITY VANCE!!

Great video! I honestly have been using Bobby pins all wring and wondering how so many people are able to get such cute hair styles using them...too funny! I also just saw someone use an empty tic tac container to hold bobby pins! Genius!!! :)

The 3rd is always the hardest for me. I could barley see it when you did it to bc there was not light. I kinda get it. Thanks for Sharing!

qvs bobby pins are great too! you can get ones coated in a very light non stick rubber type stuff so if you have fine hair they dont slip out!!

this actually helped so much...LOL i thought i was such a pro with my cross over pinning

yes yes yes, awesome awesome! thank u. I never thought u'd read my comment and actually make a tutorial!

The wavy side of the pin actually goes toward your head, it grabs the hair and creates a better hold.

So that's how you backward pin your hair! Thank you! I've always used my teeth and just slid it in my hair! I can't wait to try this today! :D

Just what I needed!!! I was always wondering how exactly most ppl were able to secure their hair. Mine always fell off in a minute or two. Like always.... THANK YOU!!!!!

alot of times pins don't always stay in place and I have to fix them; alot of people have this problem so thanks for the tips; even though it's something simple, it can still end up not staying in place, so maybe now I'll try just sliding it in rather than opening it

The Scunci bobby pins are amazing. I really do highly recommend them!

I never would have thought that the second way you used it existed haha this was helpful

thank you Mimi! your tutorials are always helpful! i think it would be great if you make some easy, spring hair styles:) xoxo

I like a drugstore brand called Scünci. Not bad, they can "open" if you make them hold too much hair, like a top knot bun. They come in a very practical little acrylic box :).

've always wanted to know how to pin a bun ! thanks so much mimi !

tks I've never noticed the quality difference. Need to buy the ones made with good steel.

@whatchamacaallit aww...:) that's great to know:)
