Hair Clips

Differences between the types of hair clips

The banana clip is ideal for gripping a large amount of hair, especially if you have thick hair. Its spring mechanism gives a non-slip hold that stops the hair from slipping out. Crocodile clips, often made of stainless metal or recycled plastic, are perfect for quick, precise hairstyles, such as pinning back a strand or making a bun.

Their serrated structure gives a strong hold while staying lightweight. Hair slides are often more decorative, with materials such as wood or decorative resin adorned with pearls or rhinestones. They add a vintage-style or boho-style touch to your hairstyle, welcome for a wedding or a special occasion.

If you prefer a discreet look, go for a clip in a minimalist style in acetate, which blends into your hair. For fine hair, choose light clips with a good grip, whereas thick hair needs sturdy clips with a solid holding system. Each type of hair clip therefore meets specific needs depending on the texture of your hair and the style you are after.

We select hair accessories for you to match all these requirements.

How do you choose a hair clip to suit your hair volume?

For thick hair, choose a hair clip in various sizes that offers enough room to hold your mass of hair properly without crushing it. A clip in recycled plastic or stainless metal will last a long time even under strong pressure. Models with a sturdy spring mechanism give a non-slip hold, which stops the clip from slipping or letting go of your hair.

If you have fine hair, turn to light clips made of acetate or wood. These materials follow the shape of your head well without weighing down your hairstyle. A clip that is too bulky may not grip your hair properly and could fall out quickly.

We also recommend a clip with a gentle mechanism so as not to snap fragile hair. For everyday use, a simple, functional banana clip gives you a good balance between hold and comfort. For a more polished look, go for a clip adorned with pearls or even rhinestones, which enhance your style without sacrificing practicality.

We offer you hair accessories suited to every type and volume, so that your hairstyles hold all day long, effortlessly.

Making a quick bun with a hair clip

The hair clip makes the bun accessible to everyone, even if you are short on time. Gather your hair as if for a ponytail and start twisting it to form a spiral. As soon as the spiral begins to coil in on itself, start winding it against your head to make a compact round.

Open the clip and place it directly on the base of the bun, where it is thickest, to catch the hair below and above in a single move. Thanks to its sturdy spring mechanism, the clip locks the whole hairstyle in one quick movement, without pulling or snapping the hair. With a hair clip in decorative resin or adorned with pearls, the bun becomes as decorative as it is useful for an evening out or a wedding.

This move suits all textures: for fine hair, choose small clips; for thick hair, choose a large version. A well-sized hair clip does not slip and keeps the bun in place all day. We also offer models in recycled plastic and handcrafted creations that give a light yet solid hold whatever the activity.
