A woman with coarse or unruly hair that never looks styled, no matter how often she visits the beauty salon. The term literally translates to bobby pin thrower, suggesting her hair is so wiry that clips and pins cannot hold it and simply pop out. (In the Dominican Republic, this is a derogatory term used for hair textures that are resistant to straightening.)
- Why does your girlfriend even go to the salon if she comes out with the same messy hair? - I think it is just to make me waste money, I told her she is a bota pincho and she gave me a hell of a tongue-lashing.
