It's hard to imagine how life would be without hair clips. We'd still have hair ties, but what about our cute and useful clips, which come in different shapes and materials and can be used for many different things? Clips are a must-have for anyone with hair, let's face it. Using the right kinds of hair clips can make a big difference in how you style, create, and rock certain hairstyles. Because of this, it's important to know which clip to use when and how to use it right.
Different kinds of hair clips
How you choose a hair clip depends on what you need. Does cutting hair require a clip? Maybe to make it look nice? Or maybe you want something whose main purpose is to look nice. No matter what, the 15 types of hair clips below are all worth a look.
1. Claw Hair Clip
You probably already have our first hair clip around the house. Claw clips are worn by women because they are easy to use and feel good. Most of the time, a claw clip style will sit right at the back of the head.
Smaller ones can hold a low ponytail in place. pin your bangs back or tie them half-up. On top of that, they don't damage hair like a regular hair tie does.
2. Bobby pin
The bobby pin is the simplest and smallest clip on this list. It can be used by itself to hold back a small section of hair, or it can be used with dozens of others to make elaborate couture styles.
Bobby pins are the best hair clips because they have one side that is straight and the other side that is grooved. Because they have a narrow turn, they really hold hair in place. They used to only come in black, but now you can also get them in blonde or brown.
3. Clips for dividing up
Sectioning clips, which are also called "alligator clips," hold large sections of hair while they are being styled. Because they are long and thin, they are easy to wear for long periods of time.
You can use them when putting in extensions, blow-drying, straightening, curling, braiding, or any other time you need an extra hand to style your hair. Clips for dividing up hair are a must-have! A barrette (American English) is a clasp that holds hair in place. It is also called a hair slide (British English) or a hair clip. Most of the time, they are made of metal or plastic, and sometimes they have fabric on them for decoration. One kind of barrette is held in place by a clasp that opens when the two metal pieces on either side are pressed together.
Barrettes can be worn in different ways, depending in part on how big they are. Small ones are often worn in the front, while big ones are often worn in the back to hold more hair. They keep hair out of your eyes or hold a bun, French twist, or ponytail in place. People sometimes use short metal "clip" barrettes to pull back front pieces of hair. Barrettes are also sometimes worn for no other reason than to look nice, and this is usually done by women.
Larger barrettes, which can be up to 3–4 in (8–10 cm) long, are made to hold back longer hair or a lot of hair. They are usually worn at the back of the head, often with the "tails up."
If the goal is to pull hair back, the length of the barrette is not the only thing to think about. The width of the barrette can also give you an idea of how much hair it can hold.
In the 20th century, many new kinds of hair clips were made. The ones that are better known are the long hair clip (at the top of the "Different types of hair clips" image), which was invented in 1972[2] by Marnie Bjornson, and the simple bendy clip, which works by snapping the clip from a concave to a convex position, springing it into a locked position, or opening it. The picture shows a few of these.
