Hairpin "Twister"

Owners of long hair know how difficult it can be to style them beautifully. Most often, the hair is left simply loose, pulled into a ponytail or pinned into a bun using hairpins. If you need to create a more complex evening option, then you have to go to a salon or hairdresser for help.

Hairpin "Twister" helps in a matter of seconds to cope with a shock of the thickest, longest and most unruly curls, turning them into an elegant fashionable hairstyle.

The hair clip "Twister", "Twist" or "Sophist Twist" appeared in the 90s of the XX century and immediately became very popular. With this simple tool, you can create dozens of different hairstyles - from everyday to solemn.

Fashionistas from all over the world have appreciated this device for its ease of use, time savings and endless possibilities for experimentation.

The clip is suitable for hair of different lengths and thicknesses. The invention is a frame made of strong, but well-flexible wire, covered with fabric of different colors and textures. To add volume to the hairstyle, the construction is sometimes supplemented with foam inserts.

Velvet, silk, cotton and other materials are used as the material for covering the frame. They can be plain or printed. To create especially solemn hairstyles, rhinestones, stones, pearls, silver and gold threads, beads, lace are used to decorate hairpins.

With this hair clip, naughty curls can be easily assembled into a roller or shell and set off for a business meeting. .

The hair will be in perfect order all day long. And in the evening, after removing the hair clip, the hair will fall on the shoulders in soft, beautiful waves, like after curling on curlers or a curling iron.

You can take a classic roller as a basis and decorate it with flowers, pearls and other decorative additions.

The advantages of such a hair clip include the following facts:

• the ability to use on straight and curly hair of different lengths;
• suitable for children and adults;
• a variety of simple and complex styling without the use of additional hairpins, invisible hairpins and hairpins.

Among the shortcomings, one can only note the fact that such a hair clip will not cope with too heavy and thick hair.... However, here you can find a way out: use two such hairpins.

Most often, you can find universal accessories made in black, dark blue, green, burgundy, purple, gray or white.

The snow-white option is the most elegant, but the least practical... The black hairpin goes well with any clothing and is in harmony with different hair colors... In addition, dark colors are less noticeable, especially if you do not want the ends of the accessory to be visible from under the hair.

Twisters are sometimes decorated with prints such as polka dots. The contrasting color of small peas makes the look more frivolous and playful. Some models are decorated with small floral prints, zigzags, rhombuses, and other ornaments.

Usually hairpins are made oval, but there are options in more complex geometric shapes that have different widths.

This hairstyle is appropriate for a business lady, and for a romantic young lady, and for a young schoolgirl. Hair is neatly collected at the back of the head in a tight, strong bun. The hairstyle looks very elegant and feminine.

To create a bundle, you need to perform a few simple steps:

• comb your hair, pass it into the "Twister" hole and distribute it evenly;
• gently curl the hair, starting from the ends, making sure that the strands do not get out of the common ponytail;
• fix the ends of the hairpins.

A variation of the classic beam. The difference is that the hair clip begins to curl not from the very ends of the hair, but a little higher.

Loose strands create a lush fringe around the bundle. You can curl the ends a little to make the hairstyle look more voluminous and elegant, or leave it as it is.

A very feminine and delicate hairstyle that is perfect for every day and for a special occasion:

• comb the hair well and divide it horizontally into 2 unequal parts (the larger the lower part of the hair, the tighter and stronger the tourniquet will turn out);
• remove the upper part of the hair on the forehead and temporarily fix it with a hairpin - "crab";

• place the lower part of the hair in the "Twister" and begin to twist tightly and tightly, without fastening the ends of the hairpins together;
• remove the "crab" and lower the hair from the forehead to the "Twister". After that, cross the ends of the hairpins together and fix the finished hairstyle.

To create a Spanish-style hairstyle, you need to do the following manipulations:

• pass the hair through the slot of the hairpin, but place it not as usual - horizontally, but vertically;
• twist the hair into a vertical braid and secure the ends of the hairpins.

This option is similar to the Flamenco tourniquet, only with this option the ends of the hairpin are hidden under the hair.

One of the most delicate and feminine styling options, which looks equally charming on a little girl and on a dreamy high school student.

To create such a hairstyle you need:

• divide hair into 2 parts, making an even horizontal parting;
• twist the upper part of the hair with a "Twister" with a tight roller, fasten the ends and hide inside;
• Wind the rest of the hair slightly.

These are just a few basic styling options for every day or special occasion. Having mastered them, you can move on to more complex hairstyles, which are based on several "Twisters" or additional hairpins, hairpins, invisibility.

Of course, today such a wonderful accessory can be purchased in many stores offering a range of hairdressing products. But if the necessary hair clip was not found, then it is quite within the power to make it yourself.

This will require:

• a piece of copper wire;
• a piece of velvet or other fabric;
• Scotch;
• nippers.

Unwind the wire several times to form a circle with a radius of about 25 cm. Thicker and longer hair will require a stiffer frame, so there should be more skeins.

Then wrap the wire structure tightly with tape. Pull the pre-sewn velvet cover onto the frame and make a slot in the middle. Then it remains to process the edges of the slit and decorate the resulting accessory with lace, beads, rhinestones. A practical, fashionable and multifunctional hair clip is ready!
