April Essence Mag Hair Section Question

[justicefighter1913]

Hey ya'll!

Can anyone tell me a) if you use these doodads and b) How do you use them?

I saw them in this month's Essence Magazine in the Hair section. They're really focusing on natural hair lately. I really like some of the the updos that they've created and wanted to try them on my hair. Any suggestions for getting the hair to twist up in an updo?

Umm ... can we say the PJ monster in me just awoke? These accessories look intriguing.

i know... when I saw these things I said "What the heck!!!" I haven't seen these things in the stores yet, at least not in my area, but I'm very interested in trying them out. Have you seen the hairstyles in April's Essence? If these pins help me to achieve the look, I'll buy them, especially if 1 pin does the work of 20 bobby pins.

No, but I'll check out the Essence Mag tonight. I'm eager to see how the ladies rock them in there.

Yea, same here ... if these things can replace bobby pins, then it's on. It's a hassle putting in one bobby pin after another to achieve a look.

Hopefully others chime in.

Hmm, I'm going to have to check my target for these. I might have to try them out in my sister's hair first cause I'm in kinky twists right now.

Dang, if that isn't a a PJ move. Can't even use these right now, but I'm on the hunt for them anyway.... blah!

OK - the PJ in me is interested....but

Imma need someone with a lot of hair to do a review on this. I bought this http://www.drugstore.com/qxp226619_...i/effortless_beauty_expandable_ponytailer.htm


and it broke the first time I wore it. Luckily it was only 3.99.
