Hairpin Twister

Hairpin Twister

Girls from early childhood like beautiful hairstyles. First with a bunch of ribbons, colored elastores and hairpins, and then with unsurpassed Hollywood curls and bouffant. You can make a beautiful styling with good styling tools only in the salon, but if you don’t have time to visit it at all, you can use an improvised device - a Twister hair clip.

With this functional accessory, you can not only put a sticking strand, but also make a haircut worthy of an evening out. Twister, in capable hands, easily replaces Babette, a tiara, and indeed any solid hair ornament. It can pin up hair, using shells instead of a traditional hairpin. In other words, it is a universal accessory for all occasions.

What it is

Hairpin Twister gained particular popularity in the 90s, just at the time when the fashion for non-standard and diverse hairstyles appeared. The girls wanted to change, without making any special efforts for this, and the clip with the wire, which bends in any direction, contributed to this very well.

The advantage of this hair clip was that it perfectly fixed even the longest hair, and externally resembled a stylish decoration. It could be covered with velvet, silk, lace, decorated with beads and rhinestones, and for volume it can be supplemented with foam rubber.

The backing has the styling functions, since after many hours of wearing you can get twisted strands. With the help of Twister, the girls learned to do more than twenty hairstyles, radically changing their images. Today this stylish accessory is back in the fashionable arsenal and every self-respecting girl should use it correctly.

How to use

For a start, I would like to note that the Twister clip is designed exclusively for long hair and if their length does not reach at least the shoulder blades, a normal hairstyle is unlikely to work. Presentable hairstyle can be done only if the hair will be carefully combed over the entire length. If the previous condition is met, and the hair length is suitable, you can proceed to the most important thing - the creation of hairstyles.

Do it better according to the instructions:

  1. We collect hair on the back of the head as if we want to make a tail, but we do not fix it with an elastic band. Make sure that your hair is well smoothed at the back of your head, otherwise the hairstyle will not look very neat.
  2. We take a hairpin and stretch the hair through a special hole. Consider that the hair should be neatly distributed around the perimeter of the hole - from edge to edge.
  3. If you have a cascade hairstyle and hair in different areas differ in length, the hairpin will have to be brought to the place where the shortest strand ends, and then fixed.
  4. We start to scroll the Twister, thus fixing them tightly in the hole. We carry out a hairpin from the neck to the ends, gradually scrolling, and then we come back, spinning the hair itself under the bottom.
  5. When we finally brought the hairpin to the base of the tail, it remains beautiful and neatly fasten it in the hair. This can be done in the form of a bun or a bagel - as you like.

This version of the hairstyle can be called the most simple and homely because it is hardly suitable for an evening out.

Hairstyles

With the help of hairpin Twister you can create two dozen hairstyles, but the most popular are just a few of them:

  • A bunch. Carefully combed hair is collected in the tail at the level of the future beam and thread through the hole hairpins.We twist hair, trying to prevent the strands from falling out, and when we reach the edge, we bend the ends. You can twist them together under or above the beam.
  • Tail with a harness. First we make a horizontal parting, dividing the occipital and crown region in half. The tourniquet will consist of hair that was left on the back of the head. Hairpin temporarily fasten the hair on the top of the head, and part of the hair from the back of the head, meanwhile, twist into Twister. After that, remove the hairpin and thread the "upper" hair through the Twister ring.
  • Shell. We comb the hair and pass it through the hairpin, placing it vertically. From the same position we begin to scroll the hair, and when the hairpin moves to the back of the head firmly fix the ends of Twister.
  • Malvina We comb through all the strands and form a parting that visually separates the top and back of the head into two halves. We fix the bottom part of the hair with a shell, and start to wind the upper part on the Twister. When the hairpin will be brought to the head, its edges will need to be fixed. Hair from the bottom should be left flowing.

As you can see, the second and fourth hairstyle are created on a similar principle, only you need to act exactly the opposite. Evening images with Twister are created by the type of Malvina, but with some changes. So, you can simply twist the lower part of the hair, and twist the top into a bundle.

You can create with the help of Twister and Hollywood curls. To do this, just twist wet hair into a hairpin, and after drying dissolve. It is worth considering that the result will depend entirely on how the hair was twisted, so the perfect result cannot be obtained from the first time.

How to make a hairpin yourself

Hairpin Twister can be made with your own hands. To do this, you only need to acquire copper wire, scotch tape, nippers, and a piece of velvet fabric.

The creation process covers several steps:

  1. First, a wire is created from the wire, the diameter of which is selected based on the length and volume of the hair.
  2. The wire is tightly wrapped with tape to get a fairly reliable frame.
  3. The hairpin case is stitched in advance, following a pattern that can be found on the Internet.
  4. The hole in the case is made on the basis of the diameter of the frame and the volume of the hair itself.

In principle, the cost of the finished product is not so great to bother with creating your own hairpin, but if you want to get an exclusive - go for it.

Kinds

Hairpin Twister always has the same design - oblong in shape, thin, with a hole in the center. But some types of such hairpins differ among themselves and it is connected not only with external characteristics.

So, for longer hair are massive views Twister with a wide hole in the center. For hair of shorter length, hairpins of smaller diameter and with a miniature hole in the center are suitable. And one and the same kind of hairpins looks different in different hairstyles.

Twist Sophist for Evening Hair

This is a wide and massive copper wire twister at the base. Ideal for evening hairstyles, as well as in the event that you want to keep heavy hair. This type of barrettes is often replenished with foam, so it is better to choose it for the most long and voluminous hair.

For the beam

But for a small beam it is better to choose a Twister smaller, especially if the hair is not too long or thin. Sophists - Twists for beams are suitable only if the length of the hair reaches the waist or the hair itself is voluminous. Remember that Twisters for beams are in plastic form, but for evening images, they definitely will not work.
