I learned that because my hair type had a tendency to be slippery, I needed to move down one size to the small to create a secure updo. Honestly, I didnвЂ™t really expect to discover much, but the two-minute video in unbelievably useful, did a great job of explaining the different hair types and styles, and really let me know which type of Flexi-8 would work best for me. After about an hour, I felt my hairstyle beginning to wilt, so I quickly fixed my hair and decided to watch the convenient sizing video on the Flexi-8 website. I decided that I could easily pull off an updo, so I twisted my hair up and secured it with the medium Flexi-8. I used the extra small Flexi-8 to do a half ponytail, and was incredibly impressed by the Flexi-8вЂ™s strength and great holding power. Initially, I decided to experiment on my own to see what sizes of the Flexi-8 worked well for me. The barrettes come in six different sizes to suit different hair types and create different hairstyles. While the basic design of the Flexi-8 works well with every conceivable hair type, the accessory itself is not a one-size-fits-all product. I received five different sizes of Flexi-8 to review. The figure 8 portion of the barrette folds around the hair while the pin slips underneath the hairstyle and then slides through the end of the barrette to secure the hair. The Flexi-8 is a unique beaded barrette that consists of a flexible figure 8 section and an attached metal pin. So when I heard that the Flexi-8 was designed to be the perfect hair accessory for every woman, I couldnвЂ™t wait to test it out for myself. No matter how hard I searched, it seemed that there was no single hair accessory that would work for any hairstyle and any hair type. I was thrilled when I found some cute little elastic headbands that I thought would make wearing my hair down a breeze, but I quickly discovered that my fine but plentiful hair was completely unsuited to the thin headbands. I absolutely adore hair accessories, but often I find that the ones I buy donвЂ™t work well with my hair type and I usually end up throwing them out or giving them away. I have had long hair since I was old enough to choose my own hairstyle, but I have never been very good at creating anything more than a ponytail or a simple messy bun with my hair.
