Half-up Bun with the Nouveau Pin

One of my favorite hairpins that I make– she’s so cute and classy! This is the Nouveau Pin. The design was inspired by harmonious lines of Art Nouveau.

If the hairpin tines cross at the ends like they did in the featured video, no sweat! This won’t affect how it holds your hair, nor will it break the pin. Simply adjust the gently back into place with your fingers when you remove the hairpin from your hair.

The size of this best-selling pin is perfect for a half-up look for any hair length or thickness, short hair, or fine hair. As I always say, it’s all about the technique and not the hair!


It’s easy to use! Here’s how:

  1. Just twist your hair into a bun

  2. stick the hairpin tines into one side of the bun towards your scalp

  3. slide the tines into the hair along your scalp

  4. then pop the tines out the other side of the bun.
