Why Choose Hair Clips and Barrettes?
Clips and barrettes are the easiest way to tame flyaways, keep bangs out of your eyes and dress up a simple hairstyle. Small snap clips hold sections neatly, flat barrettes sit comfortably all day, and pearl or rhinestone pins add sparkle for special occasions. Many styles work on short, medium and long hair.
Quick styling
Pin back bangs or half-up styles in seconds.
Comfortable hold
Flat and push-type clips sit close to the head.
Statement style
Pearls, shells and rhinestones add polish.
Wearing Hair Clips and Barrettes Gently
The American Academy of Dermatology warns that hairstyles that pull on your hair can lead to a type of hair loss called traction alopecia. Choose lightweight clips, avoid clipping the same spot every day and give your hair a break from tight styles.
Vary placement
Move clips to different spots each day.
Avoid pulling
Choose clips that hold without tugging.
Remove before bed
Sleeping in clips can cause breakage.

Hair Clips and Barrettes FAQs
What's the difference between a clip and a barrette?
Barrettes usually have a bar closure that snaps or slides shut, while "clip" covers snap clips, claw clips and pins. Both hold hair in place and add style.
Which clips work for fine hair?
Small snap clips and matte or non-slip finishes grip fine hair better than shiny metal. A light texturizing spray can also help clips stay put.
Can clips damage hair?
Clips that pull tightly or always sit in the same spot can cause breakage or traction alopecia over time, according to the AAD. Choose lightweight clips, vary placement and remove them before bed.
Are rhinestones real diamonds?
No, rhinestone and "diamond" style clips use decorative crystals or glass rather than real diamonds. Check each listing for material details.
Are clips safe for kids?
Small clips and decorations can be a choking hazard for babies and toddlers. Choose clips made for children, supervise young kids and remove clips at nap time and bedtime.
How do I keep clips from slipping?
Use matte or non-slip clips, add a little dry shampoo or texturizing spray, and anchor clips into a small twist or braid.
Can I sleep in hair clips?
It's best to remove clips before bed. Sleeping in them can bend the clip, snag hair and cause breakage.
What are sectioning clips for?
Long sectioning clips hold sections of hair out of the way while you blow-dry, curl, straighten or color your hair.
How many clips do I need?
A few in different sizes cover most hairstyles.
Can men use hair clips?
Yes, small clips work well for longer hair and bangs.
How long does shipping take?
Most orders arrive within 6 to 32 business days of being placed. That covers 1 to 2 business days of handling and 5 to 30 business days in transit. Standard shipping is free on every order, and we currently ship to US addresses only.
Can I return hair clips and barrettes?
Unused items can be returned within 30 days of delivery in their original packaging. Used hair accessories can't be returned for hygiene reasons. Email support@globalswanky.com with your order number to start a return, and there's no restocking fee.
