sånt ja gillar ni vet, allt som är onödigt vill jag iaf veta!!

varför heter hårnålar bobby pin på engelska?!

On August 6th 1882 Robert Pinney (a highly respected Jewish shoemaker) invented a clip to hold together loose strands of twine in his shoe factory, which he tentatively entitled, the “Twine Clip.” His wife teased that the clip was too tight to hold the twine effectively & could only hold something as fine as hair. After a few modifications, three weeks later Robert Pinney officially released the 'Bobby Pin'

It wasn't until the 1920's when the "Bobbed" haircut became fashionable that the Bobby Pin became a huge success. Unfortunately Robert Pinney had passed away from a stroke in 1918 and never saw the heights his simple invention reached.

The "bobby pin" came into wide use as the hairstyle known as the "bob cut" or "bobbed hair" took hold. This trend gained popularity in the 1920's, and the bobby pins kept the bobbed hair in place.
