Nice collection DivaChyck

I love all of your styles. You have some very nice hair toys. I have two questions:

1. Are you using a hair net in some of these? If so, I need to find one to try out.

2. What is this:

They looks interesting. Are they like ponytail holders or banana clips?

@skraprchik, I use a hair net every single time I bun. I purchase them from Sally's. I started this about a yr ago out of the desire for a neat bun. Other LHCF sisters have adopted the idea/technique with great success. The hair net keeps your hair in place. I use a thin hair net that is practically invisible unless you're all up in my head inspecting it.

Those interesting things you mention are u shaped banana clips. I use them to make all of my pony tails. They don't snag or tug at my hair. They don't cause breakage either. I purchased them from an ebay vendor that is no longer selling them. I'm bummed because after my supply runs out, I will have to find a pony making alternative.

skraprchik Thanks - You are feeding my obsession!

Buns with hair toys that I've collected from various stores....

I knew I could count on you. Your buns are the best! What is this toy? Is it a comb? Do you remember where you got it?


Also, just wanted you all to know that one of my favorite toy stores is having a memorial day sale. http://www.crystalmood.com/

wavezncurlz you're too kind -- thank you. I can always count on you too. My hair toys are mainly flamingo clips with different decorative looks. I got the one you posted at a flea market in Orlando. I rarely order clips. I look for them in flea markets or accessory type stores. I usually score on neat accessories when out of town.

Thanks for posting the website where you order your candy.

I've been eyeing these beautiful silver and gold toys from senzalimiti

I think jupitermoon had a beautiful hair comb from them. I've saved the shop on my etsy favorites but haven't bought anything. I'm most intrigued by the Treble Clef looking one.

Do you happen to remember where you got the brown one? I used to have one of those and loved it, and cant remember where I got it lol.

Leslie_C, it was either a BSS or an ebay vendor. I'm sorry I don't remember specifically.

I use this kind of banana clip a lot, I found the brown one at Bed Bath and Beyond(A moment of silence please I love this place), another place is my walgreens down the street also stocks this banana clip.

Thanks so much! Now I know where to look for a replacement!

 

[afroette]

Help I always break my banana clips despite having hardly any hair!!!

 

[divachyk]

afroette, how does that happen? I keep the length of the clip as close to each other as possible so that when I go to snap it shut, I'm not fighting to get the ends to meet up nor am I putting too much tension on my hair. I'm having a hard time explaining it but hope you understand what I mean.

 

[afroette]

divachyk, I think I understand you. I broke two new ones last week and one a couple weeks before. Just bought a new one yesterday. Let's see how long this one lasts.

@Colocha
Please post your buns with toys here.

 

[Colocha]

Ohhh exciting! I had no idea hair toys were so big over here too. These are a few I have from grahtoestudio (etsy), schnitztube (etsy), and Ficarre.


ETA: Forgot about my Flexi8! That was my favorite hair toy until I discovered Goody Ouchless barettes. They are just so much easier for holding up twists, and I don't worry about the metal catching.


And the koi fish hairsticks I got as a gift. They don't really hold anything, but they're pretty cute.

@Colocha

I love your hair, beautiful buns and up dos! I wish I had that much density.

 

[Colocha]

@MileHighDiva, thanks! It's a blessing and a curse. It took forever to be able to pull my hair back into a bun.

@Colocha Thanks so much for sharing. These are awesome. I have been wearing my hair out and down lately. You are reminding me that I need to go back to some of my hair toys!
