To ensure a durable lifetime of your N°1 HAIRPIN, follow our steps for the ultimate way to use them. 1. Part your hair the way you usually do, part or middle will work. 2. Grab two sections of your hair on each side of your head. Two fingers wide on each side of the part. 3. Loosly twist the sections around the back of your head where both parts will meet. 4. Hold the twisted parts between your thumb and forefinger and use one hand loosly to spread the N°1 Hairpin horizontally. 5. Carefully slide in the N°1 Hairpin upwards along your scalp. Always slide the pin in opposite direction of your part to secure the grip. 6. Always use just one finger to slide the N°1 Hairpin in.
