WHAT IS A HAIRPIN?

A hairpin is an accessory in the form of a metal or plastic clip that is used to hold the hair in place. To place it, you have to slide it into the hair with the ends open and, when released, the ends press the hair, keeping it in place. Bun hairpins are essential to preserve this type of hairstyle throughout the day.

They tend to be smooth and discreetly colored, although some are decorated with jewel applications such as pearls, ribbons, crystals, or colored stones. These, like hair slides, are used to add a decorative element in the hair.

Functional hairpins, as we have said, do not stand out for being very colorful because the goal is that they blend with the user's hair color. That is why their most common colors are black, brown, yellow, or red.

There are various designs for hairpins. The most common are straight and wavy, but there are also smooth and curved ones. The latter have a stronger grip and stay closer to the hair. Some hairpins may be padded.

In addition to holding buns and certain types of hairstyles like the 'bob', they can also be used to hold certain head garments such as headbands, bandanas, or kippahs.

WHAT IS A HABERDASHERY?

A haberdashery, also known as a notion shop, is a store that sells products for sewing, knitting, and crafts, as well as certain types of clothing.

Haberdasheries are usually small shops located in city centers, peripheral neighborhoods, and shopping malls. There you can find all kinds of materials and tools for sewing and other similar activities.

More specifically, they usually sell sewing items, textile replacements, ornaments for fabrics, hair ornaments and costume jewelry, tools (lace making, bobbin lace, crochet, cross stitch...), accessories for clothing, baby clothing, and men's underwear.
