Hair pins were some of the most ancient ways of tying up one's hair. A simple stick. And it often known later to show one's status in society, depending on the material of the hair pin. Gold, silver, gemstones, carved ivory, wood, metal, etc used to be used. India also has had used these hairpins since ancient times and are still used.
When I forget about taking my hairband from home, I usually just break a stick from the tree and tie my hair with it. People look at me mortified, but hey, my comfort and cooling my body is more important heh
Thank you for sharing! My hair is waist long and with this video I managed to pull it all up, I was SO surprised! The woman's hair is so shiny and beautiful btw :D
@@harukavakery3433 i used a pen 😂 desperate times equal desperate measures. I cant believe i had to use two scrunchies to tie my hair into a bun that will always loosen after three hours but... With one chopstick, the bun is secured neatly for majority of the day. My hair reaches below the waist and touches my thighs.

@@Volzotran Using chopsticks in your hair is not only appropriating Asian culture, but is also weird because chopsticks are ONLY eating utensils not accessories. If you really want to do this hairstyle, using the proper accessories would be the best choice. Also insulting a stranger for trying to educate people isn’t right and you should try reflecting. Have a good day.
Don't be deceived, their hair has crazy grip and strength while being incredibly smooth. My husband is Japanese and I am always envying his amazing hair 😆
I dunno why but everytime I hear japan I'm like in nostalgia. I seriously love Japan and their culture. I'm coming soon, JAPAN. you hear meeeeeeeeeeee😍🙈
I love hairpins I live Japan so yea but me and my sister we used to get alot of hairpins from our family and our cousin she used to do our hair with them we love hairpins so much 💚🇯🇵
This is the video that inspired me to use hair stick and I do not know why, I think the woman who is doing the hair is so mesmerizing for some reason. from the way she talks and she is doing the hair.
I just saw this today and I tried it immediately. I don't have pencil or chopsticks available but i saw a barbeque stick. I tried using it and I did it 😆 just take off the pointy end of the barbeque stick so you wont poke your head 🤭
I never know it could be used that way! And that hairpin durability must be extraordinary that it's strong enough to be twist like that. My hairpin always break when i attempt to twist it
I don’t know if you’ll see my comment bcuz CZcams kinda sucks at delivering notifications on old comments but what kind of hair sticks are you using? (Like what are they made of) bcuz I’ve been using them for a few years now, my hair is just past my butt so there’s a lot of it and I’ve been buying mine from Shein. They have a ton! They have some that are plastic and some that are metal, good quality and really pretty too. I have both the plastic one and metal ones and haven’t had one break yet. The plastic ones you get 2 for like $1.50 and they’re thicker than the metal ones, I even tried to break it with my hand and it’s not breaking.
I can't find these where i live so I get the fast food chop sticks and paint them and glue sparkles and little things to trail down and it looks so good with my curly hair. I wish I could get one or those they are beautiful!
I remember doing this in 3rd grade with my pencil when I forgot my hair tie. Asian culture wasn’t as popular back then (I’m half Korean and Korean is my first language) so I remember people staring at me in disbelief and asking how I did it😂
Was it metal? a lot of metal or wooden ones tend to break, especially if you have thicker or more dense hair. Cheap material, I assume. I've found that either horn or bone hair sticks are way more durable.
I have had European, Japanese and Indonesian hairpins break. Some metals are too soft, they bend first, and then break off. Hairpins made of lacquer, wood, plastic, horn, can break too. I now prefer steel or aluminium, sofar they are unbreakable.
My grandmother left me a gold hairpin and I am so scary of using it hahahaha; I just put it safe in a place and admire it but recently liked them and I am so In love because they don’t pull the hair. So bad I cannot wear it outside home, but no way I am gonna take it outside.
The fact that this is the only video on my search result that shows you how to fasten hair with just a hairpin. No hair ties, no bobby pins no just one fucking hairpin and it's the only video out of the first ten ones
this is basically using the head to anchor the pin. if the woman jumps around or something and the position of the pin is moved, the anchor will be less effective and it'll loosen
I loved all those hairpins when I was in one of these kind of stores, but darn it, they are so expensive.. I got a couple of those thou ^😅 bcos they are soooo cute!
Hi guys! I find the hairpin styles so beautiful and elegant! I'm new to this so I was just wondering...would it be okay for me to try this out and use Japanese hairpins on a daily basis even if I'm not Japanese? I would like to try it out because I think they're really pretty, cuz I'm afraid of being culturally disrespectful so I thought I'd ask here lol. Please let me know what you think guys! Thank you!
Hello. I am Japanese. I'm talking using translation. I am very happy that you wanted to use traditional Japanese hairpins like this video 😊 In Japan, this hairpin is called "Kanzashi". Let's use "Kanzashi" together!
You're so sweet for asking but as a japanese person myself I will say thay you should feel free to make use of these sorts of things! There is nothing disrespectful about it

Thats what i commented, never knew these were japanese thing. Always thought these were indian.
Wait wa- Indians also use em never knew that even tho I’m Indian

@@meep2418 yes, we Bengalis use them. Sold everywhere in Kolkata.
@@meep2418 it's a North India thing I guess, but I'm pretty sure it's prevalent in South too. Idk how you never came across one.

Monyas glad can help you.. that woman is my wife :)
@@EdiBudiarto which countrt
Seriously...it's too beautiful...
@@harukavakery3433 have you tried some "fair trade" shop? I bought there a beautiful ebony carved one. I have a couple bought online too.

Japanese people are so good, polite, clean and positive.
Thank you! God bless!
*not all of them
And racist
@@velerina2017 racist people are all over the world. Not just a perticular country.
Wow.dude i really loved your comment.so positive
I used to do this with my pencil at school.
LOL same😂😂😂
Same
Me too
Well I used to try to do it never succeeded
Lol. Me too.
Me, who owns a hair stick: *viciously taking notes*
Me too 😂
Same
Saaaame - I have the pin, but I SUCK at using it lol - today I will try the method from the video
*grabbing my old chopsticks*
Pretty. A self- defence weapon, for every women.
In an indian movie it actually used in th climax scene..movie name is ." Kahani"
But if the hair opens ie let your hair down someone can grab you with your hair

this is true 😂 whenever I go out alone, I always joke to my bf not to worry because I can use my hairstick as a weapon 😂
I wear it for this reason too! When I’m out running in the early morning.
wow I learned something today. I don't have a hairpin so I tried with a pencil, and it worked!
Edit: I bought hairpins and I do this everyday now ❤️
Use chapstick
@@ponyabedin1618 its too thin, and then put chopstick in food 🤢🤢🤢
@@user-tn2en7fn1w naturally, you would want to have two different sets of chopsticks, one for eating and one for these kind of thing
ur pfp is so horror 🙃😁
@@Minjeongverse I love horror 😅
That place must be the Ollivanders of hairpins
yeah and then hermoine will come and the pin will choose her!
❤️this made me smile, thank you
@@criseastman6503 😊 🌹
So if the hairpin rejects you it sets your scalp on fire? 😳🔥
😂..🧙🧙
I am not Japanese but I figured out how to do the same with a pencil
Chopsticks work, too! You can use one, or both 🥢
Yah u just twist and turn until it's fixed

@@andthentheresme5921 was just about to say this but you said it better than i would have. tysm for educating ignorant people
my mom is half korean but when i was little she did this to me with chopsticks lol
I saw my mom tying her hair so quick when she went to cook breakfast and she's using a wooden chopstick. It's so mesmerising. So beautiful too
I’m gonna have to go to that shop now and buy some hair pins if I every get to visit Japan.
That lady was super polite, with the way she handled the customer and also the man who was filming.
My husband is Japanese, He bought me 11 kinds of hair ornaments. I feel comfortable using it. 🙂
かんざし屋 WARGO！ My favourite store in Japan :) They're not a souvenir store - they sell all over the country.
They are brilliant
Do they have an online shop? I would love to buy some of those hair sticks. They're so cute!
日本人ですが本当にすごいですよね…説明されても一人でできる自信がありません！
Damn the amount of patience and kindness japanese employees have is surreal
She has such beautiful hair and those hairstyles with pins look amazing on her! I'l make sure when i vist Japan i go there 😍😁
It's amazing to see how these work. Asian hair is so silky soft, I would have thought these things would just slip right out.
I was surprised too, her hair looks so silky yet it stayed put
I wonder if it would stay if her hair was thicker and heavier though
It’s because it’s so tight
Don't be deceived, their hair has crazy grip and strength while being incredibly smooth. My husband is Japanese and I am always envying his amazing hair 😆
@@queenkoi I can see that. I just find it amazing how these things are so easy to use.
Beautiful! I just purchased a hair stick and was curious to see what kind of styles I could do with it, so thank you very much!
glad if the video is helpful for you 😁
Everyone are learning how to use it.
Meanwhile me vibing dark horse 😳😂
Dark horse is playing in the back (＾3＾♪
Yeahh💜
Crt
O thought it was my zoom
Let me mention about Ketty parry dark horse in the background.
Anybody else get serious ASMR tingles watching this??
I dunno why but everytime I hear japan I'm like in nostalgia. I seriously love Japan and their culture. I'm coming soon, JAPAN. you hear meeeeeeeeeeee😍🙈
I love how we're all congregated here today to share that we're learning this just now or that we've done this with a pencil.
czcams.com/video/wtbcaWnybzs/video.html ,,
Thank you! I could never get my hair pin in the way I wanted. I was only able to use it as a visual accessory. Now I can use it correctly. Thank you!
The women who is teaching us with d stick, styled her with stick looks awesome actually
I used to wear it when I was small a lot and even have collection but I don't have it anymore .Now it is rare to find in Nepal(my country).
We find ourselves once again in the recommended section. Welcome!
Oooh, I never knew these could just keep the hair up by itself.
The trick is to kind of sew it to the back of your head lol
I used to do the same thing with a pencil during hot school days
I love hairpins I live Japan so yea but me and my sister we used to get alot of hairpins from our family and our cousin she used to do our hair with them we love hairpins so much 💚🇯🇵
I would love to shop there, look at all those beautiful hair pins
This is the video that inspired me to use hair stick and I do not know why, I think the woman who is doing the hair is so mesmerizing for some reason. from the way she talks and she is doing the hair.
It was very popular when I was in highschool I used to have more than one stick collection and use it at school. So fancy :)

@@aysha1905 Oh my! Well I never tried sleeping in them tbh
I love the way the man said ohh at the end. Like he thought it was pretty 😍❤
Reminds me of when i was little and a friend would play with my hair.
Ugh i love so much japanese hairpin. I wish i could have one😞
Video: Japanese
NO one
NOT EVEN A SINGLE SOUL
ME:
Background music is DARKHORSE
I can't find these where i live so I get the fast food chop sticks and paint them and glue sparkles and little things to trail down and it looks so good with my curly hair. I wish I could get one or those they are beautiful!
I was about to purchase them online but that is such a great idea! I'll try to diy one tomorrow! Thanks!!
@@nhungtrang4996 your welcome love! 😊
Beautiful video
Oh my thanks for this I do my hair the same way
This woman's hair are so shiny and beautiful 👍
Such lovely hair she has❤
I'VE ALWAYS PREFERRED MY HAIR DOWN BUT NOW I'M OBSESSED WITH HAIR STICKS. IT JUST MAKES ME FEEL SO FEMININE AND ELEGANT.
I remember doing this in 3rd grade with my pencil when I forgot my hair tie. Asian culture wasn’t as popular back then (I’m half Korean and Korean is my first language) so I remember people staring at me in disbelief and asking how I did it😂
Thank god, I will be able to apply mine correctly now! I am terrible when it comes to hairstyles..
So glad this exist I've gotten one yesterday
Did you have cute hairpin and please share with us
HAHA I bought a hair stick from this shop earlier this year and forgot how to do it, so this is perfect
I’ve seen asian ladies around my town with these in their hair and I always find them so pretty 🤩🤩
Gorgeous hair ! And amazing technique !
Guuuuuuaaaa que bonito 👏👏👏👏👏 el moño, me ha encantado. Yo también lo solía hacer con los palillos. Muchas gracias
Used to substitute these hairpins with pens, sticks and anything similar nearby that I could get my hands on when I was younger lol.
WOW soo beautiful now I really need to get one. The Japanese hair pins are so amazing and beautiful. ❤😀👌👍
us in the ph with our ballpens in our provincial elem school when we don't have a scrunchie
My focus was on the song "dark horse" in this video more then the people
Beautifull. Theyvhav such healthy hair.
I don't know why but my mind is focusing on dark horse song ( which is played in background 😀😀😀😀😀😀)
Thanks for sharing ❤️
Thank u So much so easy, comfortable and stylish I tried .👍
Can u hear that background song is DARK HORSE 😂😂😂
I bought this hairpin in local store(emporium) and it broke within seconds while trying it on🤷♀️maybe its a cheap one
Yeah. I think so.

We need that kind of hair first...so beautiful!

I had purchased some hair pins similar to these but never knew how to use them. Thanks 4 the lesson, I will give it a try:)
The sales person was so persuasive I ended up buying what I’ll never use. I’ve never encountered such ‘aggressive’ sales people in Japan.
Miss you, staff.
Beautiful 😍
Saving this for when I travel to Japan ❤️
I must’ve been born to do this, try doing it with just the stick (start to finish). 💪🏻
I don't have this hair pin but I try this with my pen . It's not that much bad. It's pretty good.
I love this method. It's helpful when I do my work 😊
You mean traditional south and south-east Asian hair pin.
I am not Japanese but our tradition hair pins are the same
The way some girl say konichiwaaaa sounded just like anime at 1:11
Omg i don't know how to use hairpin but when i saw this video in a second i understand how to use it I tried with chopsticks bom i got it 😍😍😍
That perfection in her hands👏
私、CZcamsにある動画やサイトを全部見て、何回も挑戦したんだけど、できなかった。だから、自分で考えて使ってた。捻って、お団子にしてから、仕上げに挿すの。どんなに激しく動いたって絶対に壊れないぜ。ペンでもできる。
ありがとうございます！
Kate - dark house
Yep
this is basically using the head to anchor the pin. if the woman jumps around or something and the position of the pin is moved, the anchor will be less effective and it'll loosen
Me vibing on dark horse 🤣
Just bought a hairpin from this exact place recently on amazon experiences haha now I know how to use it!
I'm also use hairpin right now cuz my hair is very long, and I love hairstyle from hairpin 😍🥰
The song playing in the store - Dark Horse
Wow so pretty...
I loved all those hairpins when I was in one of these kind of stores, but darn it, they are so expensive..
I got a couple of those thou ^😅 bcos they are soooo cute!
They have good ones on aliexpress for like $3
It ranges from cheap to expensive Traditional craftsmanship is expensive, but others are cheap
Meanwhile, me: ponytail, “knot”, hairpin, pray that it holds

IT WORKS!!!!
Even though my hair is shorter than hers and curly it still works!!
I many cultures in india, we have something like this too
Like a chopstick, multitasking.
Oh, My mom does this to me all the time with chopsticks when I was a child :DD
I can finally learn to do it on my own
This is cute and all but all I could think was how tall the guy holding the camera must have been to have this high of a view
I would love to go to that country just to buy is that there are so many beautiful things.
Beautiful!
