Product Information

You don’t see these clips as much today, but they are out there, especially in those large clips covered in pearls. French hair barrettes are those long clips with an arm that swings down when you squeeze together the clasp on one end. For example, I once styled someone’s entire head with curls solely using hair clips, which would have only been possible with curl-setting clips. These clamps serve the same purpose as duckbill clips, however, they have additional purposes and a different structure.

There are many different types of clips, but these ten are the ones most commonly used in day-to-day life. These shiny silver clips are commonly used during the installation and maintenance process of locs by helping to secure the roots while they are drying after being re-twisted. Most of the time, hair combs are added to updos to embellish them with jewels or designs, but you can also use them to quickly hold up french twists or keep hair back over your ears. Since these clips are made of metal, I do not recommend using them with specific chemical applications because they can cause a reaction that damages the hair. Moreover, the cross pattern does not damage your wire like the ribbed teeth do when you squeeze the handles too tight.

Because duck bill clips are made of metal, there are certain chemical services that you should not use them with due to the possibility of a chemical reaction. These chemical services include perms, relaxers, smoothing treatments (like keratin treatments), and even some hair colors with metallics.

Luckily, these are easy to fix with some jewelry glue or fishing line, but it isn’t very pleasant when something pops off during the day. I have used just about every single type of clip in this list, but there are a few that I find myself using way more than any others, including alligator clips, claw clips, and bobby pins. And this hair accessory has evolved ever since: from sticks and stones, hair clips soon became more complex, functional, and decorative.I've dyed my hair every single color you can imagine and gathered up this team of Cosmetologists, home hair care testers, and hair trend spotters who love to share the products we ACTUALLY USE, test, and try in our salons and at home! Alligator clips are also very ergonomic, with large fingertip handles and a double hinge arm, making the clip easier to open when placing and removing the clips in the hair. You can also gently wiggle the clip as you remove it instead of pulling it straight out of the hair. I haven’t seen them rusting, but the golden color becomes matte and dinghy where the fingers touch them a lot or inside the claws.

Long hair will weigh itself down causing the curls to stretch more and will result in flattened curls sooner rather than later.Since there are many hair colors in different tones, some natural and some not, it’s really important to choose the right descriptive word for hair color.
