Saving Our Planet 
One Hair Pin at a Time


In a world where every action counts, our sustainable choices pave the path to a greener future.

The combined impact of cheap hairpins and unsustainable packaging, often crafted from non-biodegradable materials, forms a substantial. waste stream that our planet can no longer afford to accommodate. Disturbingly, approximately 70% of beauty industry waste originates from packaging, and pin packaging is no exception. Beauty-related packaging contributes to an astonishing 120 billion units of waste annually, encompassing plastics, paper, and glass. This immense waste load is often destined for landfills, neglecting recycling possibilities. Beauty-related packaging contributes to an astonishing 120 billion units of waste annually, encompassing plastics, paper, and glass. This immense waste load is often destined for landfills, neglecting recycling possibilities.  Current packaging practices for bobby and hair pins exacerbate the problem, promoting further loss and waste. Imagine if a compact, sustainable packaging solution could slash overall loss rates by half, if not more. Sustainable beauty and packaging represent more than just contemporary marketing trends; they are essential to averting a looming environmental crisis. Our packaging sets the standard, being fully recyclable, composed of 100% biodegradable paper, and featuring non-toxic, recyclable inks certified for their safety. Moreover, our packaging material bears the FSC certification, endorsing its status as a highly sustainable choice. Day Rate hairpins epitomize mindful alternatives that transcend mere functionality. Crafted from eco-friendly materials, our hairpins radiate both style and substance. We are proud to utilize renewable, recyclable, and environmentally-friendly components across our entire product range.
