These pins are better than I even hoped. I have very long, thick, straight hair, and to put it in a bun I have always needed at least one elastic and probably ten bobby pins or else a second elastic. Two of these pins alone actually hold my hair firmly in a tight, high bun. Plus, they're quick and easy to put in and take out. They are also good for a low, loose bun, which I could never manage before because my hair is too heavy and slippery. These pins revolutionized my hair!

I wear my hair in a bun everyday, so I've tried every bun making hair doo-dad there is. These are by far the best. I have very thick, wavy, and long hair. Two spin pins are all that I need to pin my hair up. I find they work best if you braid your hair in one braid, secure the ends with an elastic, then wind the braid up, and secure to your head with the spin pins. I'll do french braids and side braids to make more formal do's. If you just twist your hair without braiding it or using an elastic, the pins create a fast and easy messy bun look. The key is to tightly wrap the ends of your hair underneath the rest of the bun. It takes a bit of practice to learn how to use them, but once you get the hang of it, you'll never go back to basic bobby pins again.

Keeps my long fine hair in place! I am in the military and have my hair in a bun almost all the time and this is perfect.

It keeps my hair during all day. I use it for nighttime or after bath to twist my hair. The best product!

These spin pins are a fantastic idea, but for my straight, moderately thick hair, one pair is no where near enough. That makes them quite expensive. I just wanted to be able to put my hair up and out of my face when I'm at home so neatness wasn't a major issue for me. Even so, I couldn't begin to catch all the ends with just one set. Using an extra set would seem a simple solution, but when adding to the number of pins, they tend to get caught on each other.

If your plans are a simple updo that is loose and messy, you will probably be happier than someone trying to put up a nice, tight hairstyle.

I guess I will mark yes to the "recommend to a friend" question, but it really depends on the friend's hair and needs.

I have only used these a few times but they are really quick handy. I am in the Army and have to wear my hair in a bun when I am on duty and after a while it starts giving me headaches. When I use these pins, it doesn't pull on my head like using pony tails. Because I have straight, fine hair I find that it makes it easier to use them if my hair is slightly damp or has some gel in it. These pins are not going to be good for people with shorter hair. Thinker, curlier hair would be best. Overall, this is a great idea.

It is fun to use, but hair falls apart soon after.

These actually work. Use on hot days, when cooking or even just when holding a baby. Keeps hair on top of head and out of the way from little grabbing fingers. Just spin hair into a pile on your head, twist in the hair pin and voila, it stays.

The two spin pins that came in this package held a clean, tight bun all day. I have thick, wavy hair, and I had trouble getting it to hold a loose or messy bun. I'm guessing that it would hold better with curly hair. I still enjoy the product and will probably buy a couple more... they have a tendency to roll away!

I use these 2-3 times a week, and keep them in my purse on days I wear my hair down, just in case I want to pull it up later in the day. They hold my straight, fine hair up like a dream in a cute messy looking bun (the ends stick up and out in all directions no matter what I use to pin it.) I can put all my hair up with both pins or half up with one.

Straight hair can be tricky to pin up because it's so "slick" but these work way better than bobby pins (long and short) in my experience. I have also used these instead of a ponytail holder when running and they never fall out - it's like a miracle!

I highly recommend these for anyone.
