Product details
Frenchies Velvet Coated French Hair Pins are velvet‑coated bobby pins designed to hold buns, updos, extensions and wigs securely without slipping while remaining gentle on the scalp.
These French hair pins combine a microfiber velvet coating and rounded tips to create a non‑slip grip that’s comfortable for all‑day wear. Packaged as a 20‑count set in blond tones, the collection includes two lengths so you can use fewer pins for stronger holds. They’re made to disappear into light hair shades and to work with both fine and thick textures.
How do these pins keep styles like buns and French twists secure?
The velvet coating increases friction between hair and pin so each pin grips on contact. Because each pin holds better than standard metal pins, you often need only two or three to lock a style in place.
- Flocked microfiber velvet creates immediate grip on hair strands
- Rounded protective tips prevent snagging when inserted
- Mix of 2" and 3" lengths adapts to small sections or full buns
Will the velvet coating be comfortable on my scalp during long wear?
Yes — the soft microfiber finish and smoothed tips minimize pressure points and rubbing. The design reduces pulling and poking so you can wear updos, extensions, or wigs for extended periods with less irritation than bare metal pins.
- Soft flocking feels gentle against the scalp
- Rounded ends protect from pokes and scratches
- Even distribution of hold reduces concentrated tension
Are these pins suitable for different hair types and colors?
Frenchies pins are formulated to hold both fine and thick hair: the velvet grips thin strands without sliding and anchors heavy buns without bending. The blond shade blends with blonde, honey, and golden tones so pins stay less visible in finished looks.
- Works on fine, medium, and thick hair textures
- Blond color minimizes reflection and visibility in light hair
- Also available in additional colors for darker tones
How many pins come in the pack and how should I use them?
This set contains 20 pins: ten 2‑inch small pins and ten 3‑inch large pins, letting you pick the right length for section size and style complexity. Use the smaller pins for finishing and delicate sections and the longer pins to secure bulky buns or added hairpieces.
- 10 small 2" pins for fine control and finishing touches
- 10 large 3" pins for anchoring full styles and extensions
- Fewer pins needed per style thanks to enhanced grip
Who is this for? These velvet‑coated French hair pins suit anyone who wants reliable, comfortable hold for formal styles, everyday buns, dance or stage wear, and wig or extension use. They’re particularly useful for people with light hair tones who prefer discreet pins, and for stylists or individuals who value stronger grips with fewer pins. Whether you’re preparing a wedding updo, a quick workday bun, or securing a wig for performance, these pins provide a soft, non‑slip solution that keeps styles put without discomfort.
FAQ
Q: How many pins do I need to secure a bun?
A: Most buns stay secure with 2–3 Frenchies pins because of the velvet grip; larger or heavier styles may need more.
Q: Are these pins safe for wigs and extensions?
A: Yes. The velvet coating and rounded tips secure wigs and extensions without snagging or pulling.
