Cameo Bobby Spinners Review

I have silky hair and the strands are fine, so my hair doesn't hold bobby pins, hair bands, head bands etc very well. They always fall out. I tried making hair buns a lot of times, but needed almost 25 bobby pins to keep them in place which always resulted in headaches. When I received these spinners in the BRBB, I was very sure that they won't work. Still I made a hair bun using them and I was surprised to see the bun stayed in place for 6 hours! In fact, they were perfectly placed until I decided to remove them. And to top that, it was the most best looking hair bun I have ever made.

They are incredibly simple to use and take out as well. They are also comfortable to wear and doesn't pull hair tight. All in all, easy to use and stylish to wear. One won't regret purchasing it ever!

I was fortunate enough to receive a pack of these in March Beauty Box. As my hair is short I had no personal need for these but with two granddaughters, both with long hair, I couldn't wait to try them out. After a couple of minutes of figuring out the best way to hide them discreetly, we tucked them into a bun and they were remarkable. Completely hidden, hairstyle in place for the better part of the day, and two very happy littlies! I would definitely recommend them to any one with long hair!

When I saw these in the BRBB I didn't quite know what to think. I have long-ish blonde (coloured) thin hair, and I don't get particularly creative with my looks. It is either a ponytail or down and straight. On the odd special occasion it gets curled but that is about it. So seeing these spirally 'spinners' scared me to start out with... what sort of knots will I get my hair into with these!

The spinners themselves are just metal spirals. They come in different colours to match your hair colour, mine being blonde. My favourite thing is that although they are not completely solid you don't get that problem of them opening out like you do with bobby pins.

I have found these great for putting my hair up in a bun or in a french twist. Just turn them clockwise and they slip in. I like that they don't make my hair feel really tight against my scalp when wearing an up-do. These keep my hair in place all day and come out of my hair without creating any knots. My only fear with these is losing them! I hope they don't disappear as easily as bobby pins do.

Another awesome vault goodie I snagged. I was a little bit sceptical on how these would work but I shall eat my words. I drive my poor partner to spare with my thousands of bobby pins lying all over the house marking my territory. I have long hair half way down my back lots of it but quite fine tending towards a touch fluffy and flyaways so I always require a thousand bobby pins to achieve what I want.

At the moment I have been tending towards throwing my hair up in a quick bun as it’s just easier to manage especially at work so cue the bobby spinners.

Take the open end and hold the other end and literally just turn clockwise into your hair. It felt a bit weird for sure but 3 of these later and my hair is held securely. They really do have super human strength my hair did not move at all !!... it’s some impressive holding power.

I did still need to use bobby pins for any flyaways - but these bad boys held my hair style all day no sign of movement.

Getting these out was a bit different you do kind of have to fish around your hair a bit but just turn them anti clockwise to get them out and waa laa.

I got these in dark brown, I don’t think the colour really matters they are kind of hidden in your hair but I will be going to get some more for sure. Revolutionary !

Like many, when I saw these in my March Beauty Review Beauty Box I wondered what on earth they were for - and whether they'd be effective.

I throw my hair up into messy buns at the weekend and tidy ones for work sometimes, and because my hair is childlike (ie fine, soft, and misbehaves if it's grumpy) I didn't hold out much hope, but the Cameo Bobby Spinners are like the 'Hair Nanny'. Once they are in (which is a cinch one you get the knack of twisting them in at the right angle) then they are IN. All day, all night if you want them to be! They actually require more effort to extract than insert, which can be annoying at times but it's worth it for not having to constantly remove and replace during the day.

The dark brown colour tones in perfectly with my hair and the size is perfect for buns - though I'd want a finer set for hair-wrapped ponytails etc.

They only cost a few dollars and they work - definitely worth a try for women who like to wear their hair up but also great practical applications for ballet, sport etc!

I managed to get my hands on a set of these out of the beauty vault and I'm so glad I did. I honestly never would have thought of buying them off the shelf if I had seen them at the store I have really thick long hair that is normally too heavy for a tidy bun for more than half an hour. Which is a pain considering I'm going back to work and need a quick presentable do that will stay. I used three of these in a quick bun and they honestly held it up all day. Gone are the hair ties and entire pack of bobby pins to keep my hair presentably fixed to my head. Three of these bad boys did an amazing job and I couldn't be happier. I am definitely going to buy more when I see them

On a bit of cardboard are three stretched to pronged weird looking hair spinners, very unlike a bobby pin but the same principle pop them in and your hair stays put. A lover of bobby pins so if these work and do what they say I'm in. I was a little nervous of putting these spinners in my hair as what goes in has to come out and I've made many a knotty mess before. So a wee ponytail twist and twist a spinner in clockwise and my hair stays put, so in with all three. I made a messy bun thing and these held my hair all day they didn't fall out they just stayed all day and not a tight hold but a good hold. Removal time just twist in the opposite direction and out they came no knots or getting stuck or crying and having a matted mess. I'm hooked they do have a really good hold on my hair, nice to put my hair up without hair ties, that do weaken and break my hair. These are great and I've only lost one so far these are cheap and easy to use and do a great job. For me these will be on the repurchase list as I need more.

The spinners were part of the March beauty box, I must say I have never seen anything like them before, I have medium length hair which I have tied up a fair amount. I had lots of fun experimenting with these clips and recommend them to anyone wanting hold for their up-dos. I am finding I'm using them frequently in my hair styles. Worth the $5. Also will last longer than bobby pins.

I got the spinners as part of the beauty box. If they hadn't been in there I don't think I would have tried this product as it appears to be a bit gimmicky. However, I gave them a go today and they seemed to work fine at holding my hair up in a bun. Taking them out was a problem however, as they had tangled together, I had to get a friend to remove them for me. In the future I will make sure they do not twist into each other when I use them. They did what they said they would and held my hair up better than bobbie pins would have. Don't expect any super structured hairdo to stay with the spinners, but they worked fine for a loose, last minute, bun

A cute idea. Spinners that are brown. They screw in like a corkscrew or a apple corer lol. it's a ingenious idea. Which works really good and holds the hair in place. Without any shift. I would have never know about these but am glad that they came in our BRBBOX.
