Obsess much? Yah...I have 5 different kinds of bobby pins. I just found the littlest ones the other day and was SO excited. I even bothered to rave to Blair about them. Like he cares...in fact:
"When I die, they will find a million bobby pins inside of me."
-Blair circa 2007 or so
See the little nub missing from the 2nd to largest one? Those are my LAST TWO of that size. Normally I'd throw it away as soon as it lost it's little nub protector thingy (do those even have a real name?) If anyone knows of where I can buy more of those, I'll get a pack for you as compensation. :) The biggest ones are curved so they contour with the back of your head. Perfect for the half up look, and you only have to use two of them for them to stay put! When I read "for thick hair" on the package, I knew I had to buy them. The little ones are great for pinning back little strays cause they don't show much extra pin. Also for criss crossing the bangs back when you're exercising or doing housework and don't want your bangs in your face getting sweaty and gross. Anyway. I sure love my bobby pins. So much that I just took a picture and blogged about them. It's official, I guess.
