In my October Hair Update, I mentioned that my stylist noticed some breakage around the back of my head. I suspected that the breakage was due to the claw clips I used to secure my hair in a loose high bun while at home. To be safe I decided to stop using those clips, and today I bought the Goody Updo Maker as a replacement. It took some practice to get the hang of it, but I finally figured out how to get it to stay securely. I initially went looking for hair chopsticks, but couldn’t find any at my Walmart. I like the simplicity and comfort of the Updo Maker. I also have the Goody Spin pins, but I find the Updo Maker is easier to insert and remove.
