Pop quiz: how are you doing all of your hair nowadays? Proper now, my nine-month-old child Emiliano is in that “seize and tug all the things” part, so I’ve been searching for types that hold my hair out of attain.
For the previous yr, I’ve been a fan of claw clips (put on my hair like Rachel Inexperienced? Sure, please.) However recently, I’ve been seeing pictures of ladies with smooth buns and romantic twists, and peeking out the highest is the elegant curve of a French pin. Listed below are a number of:

This delicate, tousled twist with untucked ends jogs my memory of Julie Delpy in Earlier than Dawn.
Impressed, I attempted doing a twist. My hair was on day two of a salon blowout, so I wasn’t shocked when each strand stayed in place. When you, too, desire a smooth twist, blow dry and clean out any waves with a straighter earlier than wrapping it up. (When you do a twist on air dried hair and have layers, a pair layers will poke out, leaving you with a fairly tousled look.) Listed below are tutorials for lengthy and brief hair.
Subsequent I attempted a high knot. I noticed that, to make it final, you need to hook the pin into the piece of the bun that’s above the bun tail, then weave the pin beneath the tail and straight into your bun. This method anchors your hair down. I actually like this TikTok video, which supplies step-by-step directions.
Lastly, hold the pin poking out. A part of the appeal is seeing the gorgeous pin on the high, don’t you suppose? I’ve been loving the maintain of this Goal one, and I even have my eye on this cool tortoise quantity.
