Why this one
The decorative bar is 3.3 in, but the brass pin bar is 2.6 in, which is not long. On fine or thin hair it can take a half-up; on average or thick hair, use it as an accent for bangs and side hair. The pin bar is solid brass, which suits the antique look.
How to wear
Gather the section you want to hold, open the clasp, slide the pin in flat against the head and press the clasp shut. On a half-up, take the top section only.
Care
Wipe with a dry, soft cloth. Keep away from hairspray, perfume and direct heat.
Good to know
Color varies by batch. Formica runs in deep tones that shift slightly from batch to batch, so your piece may differ a little from the photo.
