First of all lapis_lazuli, thank you very much. I think we are our own worst enemy sometimes, because I didn’t actually think it looked all that great at first, until you complimented it. Now I kinda see what you mean, about the swirl.
Second of all, I apologize because I wish I could remember which exact technique I used to get this look. I was just messing around that night with a bunch of spontaneous experiments. For the life of me, I have no idea how I did it. But aren’t those always the best styles….the ones we didn’t plan or mean to do?
I do remember however, trying to shape my hair as I gathered it up, using my fingers to swirl and twist certain spots that I didn’t like the shape of. I’m still in the experimental stages with these flexi clips and seeing what looks nice.
This one below is a mega clip (XXL) and it barely fits around my full bun. I had to do a lot of pinching and squeezing to get it around. I find it all depends how I gather and bunch the hair, as to whether I can get certain size clips to fit or not. Just keep trying various ways. Youtube videos are extremely helpful as well.
I love this hot pink floral clip….so feminine and pretty!
More clips to show soon. I must have been nuts to order so many but I will use every single one of them and it will be nice to have lots of variety to choose from. I even got one of the new sport flexies. I’ll show my others soon…
XL rose gold flexi arrived this week. Working on technique, but it’s cute and holds well, I wanted to use it like a cage around buns and I think it’ll be great for that, and definitely room to grow into it as well. These are both LWB, one I out the stick through the center, and the other I just kinda squeezed it all around. Time to learn another bun!

Oh yes GoatLady, get some photos please! We’d love to see your lovely collection!
Thank you kindly, eresh! I love how shiny it is too, and how it seems to take on whatever colors are around it.
I have so many more to show. Where have these clips been all my life?! Seriously. They are so effortless and amazing. I sometimes can’t even believe they hold all my hair because nothing ever does. I’ve shown some to my friends and family and they are now placing orders too.
I’m a sucker for anything purple so I got this cute one below.

That Covid-quarantine isn't doing my finances any good as I just ordered a bunch of flexi8 in large, as my XL are too big now after I had a friend cut my hair back to midback for me. Can't wait until they arrive, meanwhile I'm drooling about your photos!
Sadly (or luckily?) a lot of my favorites were sold out in large.
Whirly Girly, that looks awesome in your hair!

Thank you, natt i nord!
How exciting when you’re waiting on a flexi order! I was like a kid waiting for Christmas Day! I can’t wait to see what you got! i agree with Alexandrina…keep your XL flexies just in case.
I posted this shot in another thread but I’ll post it here too, showing my cross flexi with purple crystals.
