I wear an Edwardian-style straw hat for my job and would like to use a hat pin to keep it from flying off all the time. But I can't seem to figure out how exactly a hat pin is used. Presumably it's stuck through the hat and into the hair somehow but exactly how this is supposed to work I'm not sure. I wear my hair in a low bun, and it's usually fairly flat. I'm not sure if this is a problem or how I could solve it either... If anyone could help me out it would be much appreciated. ^_^
Thanks!
Where exactly do I insert the hatpin(s) into the hat and how far does it come out the other end? If it is actually supposed to. I can't find any pictures or anything lol of a hatpin actually IN a hat.
You definitely have to have your hair high on your head in a bun or chignon to get a hat pin to work. You stick the hatpin through the headband of the hat and into the hair. You stick a second hatpin in at a different angle to lock the hat on. A third one might be useful. I think a fourth is redundant, though, unless you are in Wyoming wind.
