A pin curl is a simple idea. Curl a damp piece of hair beginning at the end and working up toward the scalp. When the entire strand is encompassed in the curl, use a hairpin or clip to pin it to the base of the scalp for drying. Once the pin curl has dried thoroughly, unpin it and brush it into the desired shape.
What is the purpose of pin curls?
A pin curl is nothing more than a simple way to secure and flatten a lock of hair to your head. The term originally referred to a method for coiling hair and securing with bobby pins in order to produce a wave pattern in the hair.
Do pin curls last longer?
They're curls that are pinned to lie flat across your head. With the curls pinned at your head, they're able to cool in that position, resulting in bouncier curls that last much longer than typical curls.
