THREE MODELS

USER FEEDBACK MAGNETIC CUFF MAKE IT LIKE ROLLERS WITH WIRE AND FOAM SNAP ON BRACELET VERY USEFUL: COLLEAGUE WAS STRUGGLING WITH BOBBY PINS FEMININE SHAPE: TRY TO KEEP IT GENDER NEUTRAL MAKE THE MAGNETIC BAND BIGGER SO IT CAN HOLD MORE PINS NECK PILLOW TOO BULKY WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM NECK WOULD STILL BE RESTING ON THE BORDER OF SINK IT WOULD ABSORB WATER AND TAKE TOO LONG TO DRY PLASTIC CAPES WHICH ARE CHEESY REDESIGN THEM FOR HIGH END SALONS GO AROUND NECK AND FALL INTO SINK WATER WOULD FALL BACK DOWN HEAD MASSAGER NO TOOL IS USED FOR MASSAGING THE HANDS ARE MORE PRECISE AND ADJUSTABLE THAN ANY TOOL

BLACK! BLACK! BLACK!

THERE WAS ONE SIMILAR BUT IT WAS SO UGLY I WOULD NEVER HAVE USED IT

I LOVE HOW IT FITS PERFECTLY AND THEN ATTACHES BY GOING AROUND

I LOVE HOW THE MAGNETS ARE INSIDE AND YOU CANNOT SEE THEM

I LOVE STUFF AND ANYTHING THAT CAN HELP ME TO DO MY FAVORITE THING IN THE WORLD

I HAVE A TRAY AND A BOX I KEEP ON THE TRAY SO IF I AM HOLDING THE HAIR I WILL HAVE TO HOLD IT WITH ONE HAND AND REACH OVER INSTEAD YOU JUST PULL IT OFF THE BRACELET, IT IS SO MUCH EASIER

I WOULD TOTALLY WEAR IT TO WALK UP TO THE FRONT DESK AND TALK TO A CUSTOMER, I DO NOT FEEL LIKE I WOULD HAVE TO CONCEAL IT AT ALL
