These handmade Buffalo Horn Hair Pins from Sambhal, Uttar Pradesh, represent centuries of Indian horn craftsmanship. Each piece is individually shaped, carved, and polished by skilled artisans using ethically sourced buffalo horn — a natural by-product of the meat industry. No animals are harmed for horn collection, ensuring a fully ethical, zero-waste supply chain. HornImpex adheres to global export standards, providing consistent quality for B2B buyers worldwide.
Buffalo horn contains natural keratin — the same protein found in human hair and nails. This makes horn hair pins lightweight, smooth, anti-static, and hair-friendly. Unlike plastic, horn does not snag or cause friction, making it ideal for styling hair in buns, updos, chignons, or decorative looks.
Each pin is hand-turned and shaped to an 18 cm tapered profile. The body features smooth contouring for better grip, while the tips retain a beautiful natural gradient ranging from cream to black. HornImpex uses multi-stage wet polishing to achieve a glossy, premium finish without synthetic coatings.
Only Grade-A horn billets are selected — straight, dense, and polished to a long-lasting finish. These pins resist breakage better than plastic or wooden hair sticks.

Yes. Natural buffalo horn is dense and keratin-rich, making it far more durable than plastic or resin hair sticks. Even with daily use, it resists bending and breakage. Proper polishing also ensures a smooth glide through the hair, minimizing friction and reducing hair damage. With standard care, a horn hair pin can last many years.
Absolutely. HornImpex specializes in OEM manufacturing for global brands. You may specify custom lengths (16–20 cm), shaping, contouring, engraving, custom color sorting, branded packaging, barcode placement, or unique set combinations. We can also prepare retail-ready packs for Amazon or boutique stores.
Yes. All horn used is a natural by-product of the agricultural sector where buffalo meat is already consumed. No animals are harmed for horn harvesting. We maintain a fully documented ethical sourcing policy and use every part of the material, ensuring zero-waste production.
Keep your hair pins dry and clean. Avoid prolonged water exposure. Occasionally wipe them with a soft cloth and a drop of natural oil to maintain the sheen. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or sunlight to prevent dryness.
