How to choose the right size French hair pin?
Choosing the right size of bobby pin is the key to a stylish and firmly held bobby pin. Several factors, including hair length and thickness, influence the choice. Short hair may benefit from a smaller needle for a subtle look, while medium to long hair requires a larger, stiffer option. The thickness of your hair - whether thin, normal or thick - will also determine how strong and wide a needle you should use.
It is important to consider whether you want to attach all the hair at once or just part of it. The width of the pins will affect how well the whole peg can be held in place. If necessary, you can also use two sets of pins - one to support the main hairstyle, for example, or as an additional decoration. This allows you to tailor your hairstyle to suit your own style.
We've categorised our pins into sizes S, M, L and XL to help you find the right option. The smaller S and M sizes are best for short and thin hair, while the L and XL sizes are designed for medium to thick hair that requires more support. This makes it easy to find the right solution for your hair, to keep your hairstyle in shape and looking great.
S | Very thin hair or only part of the hair |
M | Suitable for most hair types |
L | For long and thick hair |
XL | For very long and thick hair. |
