This $16 magnetic holder stops bobby pins from disappearing: 'Sanity saver'
How often do you reach for a bobby pin, and there's just...nothing there? They've disappeared. Where do they go? They same place as lost socks, perhaps. Even if you have a designated spot for hair-styling items, bobby pins always seem to run away — sometimes showing up where they're not welcome (like in the washing machine). That's where this genius little organizer comes in: the HairpinPal Magnetic Holder corrals your pins and keeps them in place, so they're always there when you need them. Simple but brilliant, it's a lifechanger — and it's just $16!
Tired of losing bobby pins as soon as you buy them? This magnetic holder makes them stay put, so you never run out again.
The HairpinPal Magnetic Holder is the answer to the never-ending search for bobby pins. Magnetized to secure your stash, it takes the mystery out of locating these stealthy little accessories. With a durable, heavy base, it won't slip and slide; wherever you put it — on a counter or inside a drawer — it stays. The HairpinPal is also great for barrettes and safety pins.
Shoppers love the HairpinPal and can't stop raving about it — in fact, more than 2,500 Amazon customers have given the handy helper a perfect five-star review.
One shopper summed the holder up perfectly: "It just makes sense. If you are anything like me and have bobby pins everywhere. This is perfect for keeping them in one spot. The magnet is strong, and it holds a lot!"
"Sanity saver," reported a fan. "Picks up bobby pins — what’s not to like? I hate to find them all over the house; this gadget keeps them in place. Awesome!"
"My whole life, I've been losing bobby pins left and right until I got my hands on this product," another wrote. "The bobby pins that come with the product are great, too, and sturdy. My hair stays in place, and the bobby pins stay in place on the holder once I'm done. You can flip the holder around, topple it over, etc. and the bobby pins will still be in place. I barely have lost bobby pins with this product."
"This hairpin holder is a lifesaver!" one five-star reviewer said. "Really happy with my purchase! We’ve tried all sorts of different things to store my daughter’s hairpins, but this has a super strong magnet that keeps hundreds of them tightly in place! Has made a HUGE difference when doing her hair for dance competitions!!"
Another happy customer shared: "Such a great product! I wish I had this years ago. It would have saved me a lot of bobby pins. I keep it in a drawer in my bathroom, and it catches all the bobby pins I throw in there. No more hunting for them."
Shoppers say the holder is durable and doesn't slide off surfaces, so it keeps your hair pins secure. Available in pink or light blue.
