Hairpin:
Hairpins (around 600 b.c.)
A bobby pin, a type of hair pin
A hair pin or hairpin is a long device used to hold a
person's hair in place.
Hairpins made of metal, ivory, bronze, carved wood, etc.
were used in ancient Assyria and Egypt for securing
decorated hairstyles. Such hairpins suggest, as graves show,
that many were luxury objects among the Egyptians and later
Greeks, Etruscans, and Romans.
The hairpin may be needle-like and encrusted with jewels and
ornaments. It often may be more utiliarian—designed to be
almost invisible after being inserted into the hairstyle.
One of the most famous NASCAR tracks with hairpin turns was
the old Riverside International Raceway in Riverside,
California.Hairpins also may be constructed from different
lengths of wire that are bent in half with a u-shaped end
and a few kinks along the two opposite portions. The
finished pin may vary from two to six inches in final
length. The length of the wires enables placement in several
styles of hairdos to hold the style in place. The kinks
enable retaining the pin during normal movements.
The nature of the U-shaped end of this design gave rise to
an adjective to describe a particularly tight 180-degree
turn in a road, especially in the context of motorsports: a
"hairpin turn" — as shown in the accompanying diagram of a
racetrack with several sharp turns.
