Spin pins are used to secure hair in place, often for updos or ponytails. You typically create an "X" shape with the pin within the hair, securing the style.
Here's a breakdown of how to use spin pins, based on the reference:
- Form the Style: Create the desired hairstyle, such as a bun, updo, or ponytail.
- Insert the Spin Pin: Push the pin into the hair where you want to secure it, twisting as you go. The video suggests creating an "X" shape with the spin pin inside the hair.
- Secure the Hair: Continue twisting the pin into the hair until it feels secure.
- Flip the Hair (Ponytail example): After securing, flip the hair back over to create the desired look, such as a ponytail.
- Adjust as Needed: Use additional spin pins to further secure the style, ensuring it's firm and holds its shape.
Spin pins are a simple and effective way to hold hairstyles without the bulk of traditional bobby pins.
