Frenchies Velvet Coated French Hair Pins — 20 Count Grey, Non‑Slip Velvet Bobby Pins for Buns & Wigs

Frenchies Velvet Coated French Hair Pins are velvet‑coated, non‑slip bobby pins designed to secure buns, updos, extensions, and wigs with fewer pins and less slippage.

These grey Frenchies pins combine a soft flocked microfiber coating and rounded tips to deliver a firm hold that blends into grey, silver, and white hair tones. The set includes 10 small (2-inch) and 10 large (3-inch) pins so you can pick the right size for delicate sections or thicker, fuller styles. Because the pins grip on contact, most styles need only a couple of pins to stay put, making them a practical choice for weddings, everyday wear, and styling with extensions or wigs.

How do Frenchies pins stay in place when other bobby pins slip?

The velvet coating increases friction between the pin and hair, so each insertion creates immediate grip without excessive tightness. Rounded protective tips and an even coating prevent hair from sliding off the metal surface, which reduces the need to overuse pins for security.

• Flocked microfiber velvet increases hold across hair types.
• Coating creates surface friction rather than relying on tight bending.
• Rounded tips protect the scalp and prevent snagging.
• Works with both small sections and full buns thanks to two sizes.

Will these pins work for fine, thick, or textured hair?

Yes — the design is intended to be versatile: the velvet grip secures fine strands without pulling, while the larger pins add support for heavier or thicker hair. Because they come in two lengths, you can mix sizes to anchor varied textures and volumes within one style.

• Small 2-inch pins for delicate hair or finishing touches.
• Large 3-inch pins for anchoring fuller buns and updos.
• Coating prevents tugging on fragile or chemically treated hair.
• Useful with wigs and hair extensions to hide attachment points.

How do I use fewer pins without sacrificing hold?

Because each pin grips on contact, they replace multiple standard metal pins. Place pins where tension naturally gathers — at the base of a bun, along the twist of a French twist, or beneath a pinned section — and angle them to lock hair layers together for a secure hold using 2–4 pins.

• Insert pins across opposing hair layers for cross‑lock support.
• Use larger pins at the base and smaller pins for finishing edges.
• Angle pins toward the head to secure rather than press outward.
• Mix pins with styling products for added hold in slick styles.

Will the grey color remain discreet in my hairstyle?

The muted grey finish is chosen to blend seamlessly with grey, silver, and white hair tones so pins stay discreet under typical lighting. Unlike reflective bare metal pins, the matte velvet minimizes catch and visibility, making them ideal for formal looks or when you want attachments to be invisible.

• Matte velvet reduces shine and reflection compared to bare metal.
• Grey is optimized for blending with silver and white hair shades.
• Available in other colors (Black, Brown, Blonde, Red) for matching.
• Works well with wigs and extensions to conceal anchors.

Who is this product for? These Frenchies pins suit anyone wanting stronger, gentler hold for buns, updos, and pin‑ins—especially people with grey, silver, or white hair who prefer inconspicuous fasteners. They’re also well suited to stylists, brides, and wig or extension wearers who need reliable, comfortable pins that reduce the number of fasteners required while protecting the scalp and hair fibers.
