The bobby pin has often been the hidden miracle that helps hairdos look amazing, especially the up do. What would a bride’s special day be without about 50 hidden bobby pins? But today the bobby pin is no longer hiding. Some of them are adorned with cute little shapes and rhinestones, but if you look you’ll notice that just the standard bobby pin is appearing everywhere.

Why this trend is celebrity-hot and happening now no one knows exactly, but it could be that everyone is going through that awkward stage between haircuts, or they’ve just given up. Actually, it’s probably because the up do is becoming very popular again, so is the braid, and both of these hairdos tend to work better with a bobby pin. Today there is no more hiding the bobby pin, just wear it proudly and announce that you’re super trendy and on top of the hottest new trend.
