The MECCA view

This chignon hairpin and its two sharp prongs are anything but intimidating… quite the opposite! Carved from high-quality acetate, it slides delicately into the heart of a chignon, ensuring both its secure hold and its elegance. It has the audacity to take on any hairstyle.

Since the dawn of time, ever since hair first appeared on earth (and atop countless heads), the realm of hairstyling has never ceased to evolve. Through the ages, following trends, and sometimes breaking conventions, hairstyling has become an art form. Egyptian women with their elaborate hairstyles of a thousand plaits or Marie Antoinette with her towering headdresses reaching up to the heavens cannot attest otherwise.

The five great pillars of the art of hairstyling are: knowledge of hair, mastery of the gesture, patience, the perfect tools, and creativity. Like sculpture, this art transforms a daily gesture, which for some can feel like a chore, into a refined and poetic ritual. Under the fairy-like touch of a skilled hairdresser or an expert stylist, hair becomes a true ephemeral masterpiece, endowing every face with a haughty allure. Whether you like your hair tidy, naturally beautiful, or extravagantly wild, colourful or tousled, the Officine has a collection of combs, clips, and acetate accessories to delight and suit every hairstyle.

The Valiant pricks… but with the utmost delicacy. An essential accessory for princely hairstyles and charming faces, this chignon hairpin is as delightful to behold as it is to handle. Its two long prongs discreetly hide within a large chignon (whether flat, twisted, or voluminous) leaving only its “golden square” visible. The Valiant is also the perfect companion for two small Japanese-style buns or for those with a princess's soul who wish to emulate the legendary Princess Leia’s iconic hairstyle. One pin per bun, and your locks will hold in place.

Available in two colours, tortoiseshell or ivory, this jewel-like comb is sure to find the perfect match for its teeth!
