How to Properly Use Bobby Pins

   There is always that one person that over floods their hair with unnecessary bobby pins. In reality, for most hair chunks, braids, etc. you only need to two pins total. All you have to do is cross each pin of the other. In other words, place a bobby pin where you want your hair to be held, (make sure the open end on the pin is facing upwards to ensure no fall out). Now with the second bobby pin, place it over the first bobby pin so they are perpendicular or form a "X". For the second pin have the open end facing downwards so no hair can try to escape out the top. For a finishing touch you may take hair from the side of the bobby pins that is loose (if the rest of hair is down) and let it hang over the pins to conceal them.
