Description
Hair Chain in Aluminium: AXIS by REPIOR®
AXIS is a hair chain made by hand from fine aluminium wire. Worn over the hair and secured in place, it draws a clean line along the head, a central axis that frames the face and catches the light with every movement.
It recalls the line of a perfect parting, or the spine of a leaf held up to the sun.
Symmetry you can wear.

A Parting Drawn in Wire
AXIS is drawn along a single line, the body’s own centre of balance. On the head, that line runs through the crown and towards the brow, the axis around which the face is composed. AXIS marks it, quietly and precisely.
In our studio, the aluminium is shaped by hand into the head piece, every join is checked, and the finished piece is adjusted so it lies light and even on the head.

How to Wear It
Place the head chain on the head and align it along the centre. Secure it in the hair, with hair grips if needed, adjusting until the line falls evenly. It works over a centre parting, smooth hair or a low bun. To remove, release the grips first and lift it away gently.
Materials
- Aluminium wire, formed by hand
- Very light and nickel-free
- Silver or gold colour
A line drawn by hand is never ruler-straight. This is the material, not a flaw.

Care Instructions
Remove before washing your hair, swimming or sleeping. Apply hairspray before you put the piece on. Wipe the aluminium dry after wear and store it flat so it keeps its shape. For sensitive skin, see our guide to hypoallergenic metals in body jewellery.
Packaging
AXIS arrives in signature REPIOR® packaging: considered, already a gift, with a REPIOR Certificate of Authenticity.
Why a Hair Chain?
A hair chain dresses the hair itself, with one line instead of a crown. It suits a parting, a chignon or loose hair, and comes off in a moment when the evening is over.
It is for those who love symmetry and ceremony. For brides and bridesmaids, for graduation days and gala nights, and for anyone who wants a single line to change the whole picture.
Questions
How does it stay in place?
AXIS is secured in the hair, then adjusted with your fingers until the lines fall evenly. For a long day, such as a wedding, a couple of hair grips in a matching colour hold it even more securely.
Is it heavy?
No. AXIS is made of anodised aluminium wire, which is nickel-free and very light, so it can be worn for hours without pulling on the hair.
Can I wear it at my wedding?
Yes. AXIS suits brides, bridesmaids and guests, alone or with flowers in the hair. Choose gold or silver to match your other jewellery.
Is it a good gift?
Yes. There is no size to guess, and AXIS arrives in signature REPIOR® packaging with a Certificate of Authenticity, ready to give. Our gift guide has more ideas.
