FINALLY - SILVER BOBBY PINS
After so many unsuccessful tries, I finally found truly silver bobby pins. These are not grey, they are silver, which is exactly what I needed.  They barely show when I put my hair up in buns.  Another plus is that the  straight leg is sufficiently longer than the curvy one to make one-handed opening easy.  I know that sounds silly but people trying to put their hair up alone will appreciate what I mean.  The pins also come in a handy plastic cup instead of a thin piece of useless cardboard.  I appreciated that as well.  I know it is strange to write such a glowing review about bobby pins but I have had a difficult time finding truly silver ones plus ones that also are easy to open.  I very much recommend them.
