Bobby Stick Tip

BlaqKofi said... I own a bobby stick, but haven't been able to use it - or apparently, I haven't been using it correctly. Guess I better go back and read your November post.

Hi BlaqKofi,

Interestingly enough, the best way to use the Bobby Stick is to disregard the directions. The directions on the back of the package say to insert the stick from the bottom. I think the way I (and most people) grab and twist their hair, the bottom is too thick to put the Bobby through. I stick it through the top as you can see in the photos below. I think that secures my hair much better.


This is not the neatest updo, but you get the picture. (No pun intended.) I hope this helps.

Merry Christmas!

Hairagami Anybody?

You don't necessarily need a hair toy to make an up do, but I was in the mood to play, so I picked up a package of Spring Rings at CVS and did just that. I've seen a bunch of Hairagami products over the years. Some work for me, some don't, but the Spring Rolls were surprisingly easy. I've always passed them up because they look so complicated, but I was presently surprised to see that they work as advertised. Twist in, twist out. Very cool! If you're looking for a bit of jazz and pizzazz to ring in the New Year, this might do the trick for you.

For simplicity though, nothing beats The Bobby Stick, which I blogged about last November.
