Cameo Bobby Spinners Review

I received a brown pack of these in my March beauty box and my first thought was 'how am I ever going to use these things?!' They looked a little crazy and I didn't see how they were going to work, but seeing as I put my hair up a lot I was intrigued. I took them straight out of the box, twirled my hair into a bun, rolled a couple of these into it and was blown away...they were so simple to use and my bun felt super sturdy! I now use one or two in combination with extra long bobby pins to safely secure my buns for the day. The only downside is the paint seems to be chipping off them quite easily, but you don't see them anyway. I'll definitely be repurchasing these at some stage, and I'm happy to see they come in a blonde version too!

These seemed very interesting when I first looked into them. I have rather long curly hair and these are now a bit of a must have for one main reason. Stability... I can pop my hair in a quick bun and add one of these and it won't fall out. Why is this important you ask? I ride a motorbike and the last thing I want is my hair coming out and becoming nastily tangled and gross for the remainder of my ride (which has happened before) and with one of these I've never been let down. Love them and use them whenever I want my hair to stay where I've put it.

These were an item i received in the last beauty box, and i have to admit, i was a little confused by them. I had never seen bobby pins like this, and pushed them to the side, and focused on my other goodies.

It wasn't until i was doing my hair one day, with a donut bun that i was in desperate need of bobby pins and of course, i had none available (isnt that every ones story). These were all i had, so i played around with them and twisted them into my hair.

Firstly, it is so easy to twist this into your hair, and they are easy enough to twist far enough so that your hair covers all traces of the spinner. I only needed these three spinners,and one other bobby pin to fully secure my bun, which lasted all day! This is saying alot, because my hair is thick, long and heavy, and i can easily use 10 or more bobby pins in my hair.

The only negative i have over these spinners is the fact i find them harder to remove than normal bobby pins. Its not impossible, its just a bit more time consuming to unwind the spinner out of my hair. However, i would still buy these and use these again in a heart beat because they are effective, and you don't need many to create the hairstyle i want.

I loved the novelty of these bobby spinners. As soon as I found out about them I was thinking how awesome they sounded (as long as you don't twist two together lol). So when they arrived in the March BRBB I was so happy, I didn't have to try to search them out (I tend to forget to look to be honest) and as soon as I tried them I thought YES, I can see me using them all the time.

Skip forward a week and I see so much of the painted surface has flaked off to reveal bare metal, but they still work so in they would go. They hold my super fine hair very well but can take some maneuvering to hold using only one or two but still I deem that successful.

Now roll forward a couple of months and well to be honest I don't use them much (ok at all) right now but I think that is purely because the novelty has worn off (much like the paint). I still love the concept of them and think they are handy to keep in my purse... you know... just in case, but I really only found them handy for keeping loose buns from coming undone and not really much else.

Like a lot of others, I received these in the March Beauty Box. I left them sitting on my dresser for a long time, unsure about whether they would really work. Tonight I decided to try them, so I put my hsir into a bun and screwd in one pin. It stayed in place perfectly! I put a second pin in for extra hold and shook my head around (for scientific testing purposes of course!), and the 'do didn't budge! I hoped they would come out easily as I had a bad experience with a roller hair brush when I was younger and nearly had to have my asir cut off! Thankfully, they came out a breeze. I am going to put these in my hair tomorrow for a whole day at work. Wish me luck!

These came in the March BRBB. I looked at them and wondered what they were for. Well did I find out when I turned the card holding them over.

My hair isn't as long as some peoples but still below the shoulders. I can hold my hair up with 1 of these pins, granted it is not the prettiest bun to look at, until I take it down. My hair isn't very long, shoulder length, I just pull my hair into a pony tail and twist till it goes around itself to form the bun, screw in the pin and done. When I do a half up bun though, the bun is so small the pins show at the other end.

While I am not likely to use these out and about, at home they are handy when I just want my hair out of the way. I can see some people getting great use out of these, mainly the school kids and people needing an up do for work or dance.

Honestly aside from dyeing my hair on a regular basis, I'm not fussed about how it looks. However these pins make my life so much easier. I often have my hair tied back, especially on days when it hasn't been washed, and these are just so easy to twist into my hair. They prevent breakage, unlike my regular hair ties, and when I let my hair down after doing my make up the natural curls are often accentuated. I really love these and once they've all disappeared (I mean, I doubt these are exempt from the disappearing bobby pin rule) I will definitely buy some more. Plus, they're super affordable!

I really like these. I usually wear my hair in a ponytail, and don't bother with anything fancy. Occasionally I like to wear a bun, but it's often difficult since I have to use a million bobby pins and even then it still doesn't look right.

These spinners make life (and hairstyles) easier. I simply put my hair up and spin the three pins through the bun. It holds perfectly and for a very long time. I find these really easy to use, to get in and out of my hair, and they make it simple to do my hair. They won't give you the perfect immaculate bun, as there are always hair stragglers, but they certainly make it a lot easier!

These are such a great Idea! They actually have more hold than your average bobby pins. I never used to wear my hair in a bun as it never used to have any hold. Bobby pins and hair spray failed. I was looking forward to trying these. They are basically self explanatory. They spiral into your bin instead of placing them in straight like a bobby pin. I now wear buns more often and I have never had one of these Bobby Spinners let me down yet!

I received these in the March Beauty Box. I really could not figure out what to do with them and I was worried I would end up with them stuck fast in my hair, or worse, a serious injury!

I do have hair slighty longer than shoulder length, and it's always tied up and clipped back, so I would have used them if I could have worked out how to.

In theory they sound like a good idea, but in reality? not for me!
