Hey Sis, are your Black pins older than your Brown ones by chance? I ask because your post prompted me to search on Amazon for reviews and it seems that based on the newest reviews, the company is now using a cheaper more brittle plastic which tends to break very easily
I purchased these pins years ago in black and still have 4 left. I don't recall them ever breaking on me - my only issue with them was that the plastic seemed to peel a little over time but the pins were still usable. I was interested in purchasing more of these pins in black, but not anymore since the quality seems to have gone way down over the years
Thank you for this! I'm not kidding about every single 'new' one breaking on entry or exit. Save your coins, please. I have half a pin stuck in my hair right now. I was beginning to think they'd gone 'bad'. I have old black as well as new black, brown and clear. I bought them all years ago and just knew that as long as I didn't lose them, they would last for life. Excluding the 'older' black pins, they are practically useless now.
