Bobby pins are a dancer’s best friend. Bobby pins are a hair
tool that make securing, tightening and smoothing of the hair 100% easier. They
can be used to smooth out fly aways around the frame of your face, tighten
excess around a bun or secure back a poof, braid or intricate hairstyle. I
don’t know a single dancer who doesn’t use, love and appreciate them. As long
as the color of bobby pin matches the shade color of the hair, they are a great
tool for dancers to use.
One time, my dance friend Emily was at my house and asked me
for a bobby pin, but then about five seconds later she picked something up from
my floor and said, “I found one!” She also made the comment that she shouldn’t
have even asked, because dancers are full of them all over their rooms. Hashtag
dancer probs, right?
Bobby pins are extremely important in smoothing away your
fly aways. No hairspray around right before you take the stage? I bet if you
look on the ground you can find at least five bobby pins on the floor.
Typically when putting your hair up it’s not completely smooth. You tend to get
a few bumpies or an accidental snag that results in a random piece flying up on
the center of your head. Girls with bangs also have the problem of several
hairs flying around in their face, it become distracting and irritating. To fix
the problem it is an absolute necessity to use bobby pins. You wouldn’t want
hair in your face while you’re dancing, so many people pin them back with bobby
pins. Bobby pins assist in getting the hair flat to the head, all while
blending into the hair color, making it unnoticeable from a distance.
The easiest way to secure a bun to your head is by the use
of bobby pins. Buns can have tendencies to become loose quickly, especially if
you use the twisting method. The twist bun method relies on bobby pins to
secure it the head, giving the look a professional, unmovable finish. On the
other hand if you use a snap bracelet bun maker, it helps to secure it, but
more so helps with fly aways that appear from between the crease endings. Hairs
stick up with the snap bracelet bun maker, to tighten the bun to your head one
must place the hair inside the bobby pin, pull down and tuck it under the bun
maker. Finally the use of a donut bun maker requires a more sophisticated bobby
pin, which is the butterfly pin. A butterfly pin is open at the ends instead or
clasping, allowing it to grab more, but requires a higher forced push into the
bun.
Bobby pins also help to make poofs, braids and other complex
hairstyles. Bobby pins in this instance are used to secure back any
imperfections made when completing the look.
Life is so much better when you have bobby pins around. Bobby
pins are one of the most resourceful hair tools for a dancer. They may seem
like a small part, but they help in finishing the look into a professional
clean cut finish. It is very important to have many on supply, because they
seem to frequently be lost, so if you’re headed into the dance community take
your time in investing.
