Reddit mentions: The best hair clips

This is so something I can answer! I never do my hair - it air dries and I roll with it, but my princess of a daughter is all about some hairstyles.

I agree 100% with wet hair being the ultimate helper for this situation. It seriously makes it infinitely easier. I usually make sure to have it well brushed and do it just out of the shower, but sometimes I do the spray bottle thing. Seriously. Gamechanger. These also helped me a lot - https://www.amazon.com/Soft-Style-Butterfly-Clamps-Assorted/dp/B000X20Y4C/ref=zg_bs_3784401_7?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=0BXHGF4ETMQ2JYF8PKTG, because they are great at holding back sections you don't want to mess with (and so cheap!). It'd also be helpful to get a brush that has the pointy end on it for sectioning out parts.

Also, Youtube is a huge help. Look for shorter videos with good ratings. There are sooooo many out there, and most of them start out with incessant explanations or face-making or cutesy stuff that is just completely unnecessary. And then the tutorial sucks.

For example, I watched 5 or 6 videos on how to fishtail braid, as well as looked over many diagrams, and could not figure it out. Finally, I found this short and sweet video, and it just clicked. It's clear, well shot, and understandable and gives a great trick for beginners (the clear elastic that you later cut out).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZyZkowmdZv8

The easiest, quickest thing to learn for me was to section the top part of her hair into X sections - usually 3, 4, or 5, and then do little ponytails close to the scalp with those. Then you can either gather those together and braid or just ponytail together, or you can section the bottom the same way you did the top and bring those in with the top somehow. You'll see what I mean as you do it.

I truly could never do a french braid, but 15 minutes on youtube and some patience, I figured it out. I usually let her watch a show or youtube while I do her hair, making sure the phone or TV is at eye level and not like a tablet in her lap or something, so she sits still. At least then I don't feel too bad if I mess it up and have to start over, and she's super fine to just chill and let me practice.

I can try to answer any questions you may have, hope this helps!

\> with short hair is it really worth it?

Anything is worth a try, but whether it's worth it to keep it up is your call once you see how you like it.

\> Or would a gel be better?

Gel is certainly easier and cheaper, so we recommend it as a starting place. LOC is great too but having that many steps introduces more potential for troubleshooting problems.

\> Can I use tiny butterfly clips to curl my hair while my hair is wet and has styling products to help add more curl?

Yes! Or flat, metal root clips like these (just picked a random one off amazon to link).

​

You'll also want to experiment with adding protein or not, since your hair feels coarse. I'm not sure whether you'll need more or less (guessing more?) but that's another variable to play around with to improve the texture.

Good luck with everything! Hope that helps.

I have tried quite a few things for keeping multicore builds straight, allow me to save everybody the pain and bit of money of experimenting with this essay.

Aw man, those things sucked for me, assuming we bought the same ones... too weak, made of plastic and too large to be tight enough. Amazon disappointed me with this one. Glad they're working for you though!

Paperclips bend your wire and can screw everything over, especially if they're not tight enough. I tried special "Owl" paperclips and they still bent the wires like regular paperclips did.

Hair snap clips SERIOUSLY bend up your wire and don't even want to clip shut most of the time. Avoid, at least these particular ones.

Clothespins are too weak as well, at least the wooden ones.

I tried... I am not sure what they're called, they're the squeeze things that are on the strings of a hoodie, and the ones I bought were too weak, but would've worked nicely if the spring was better. These aren't the exact ones I bought, but they're the same thing.

I purchased two different Micro chucks (number 2) for my drill, they fit into the drill and have four jaws, but they're impossible to tighten enough for them to be worth using, your wires just fall out. Disappointing.

I purchased a Jeweler's Hand Vise and it works great, except that it comes out of the drill at a slight upward angle, with longer wires it causes everything to jerk around a bit which can snap 38g+ if you're not careful, especially at faster speeds, but besides that it's a great tool that I use all the time. Everybody should have one of these!

I bought a set of those fancy Patino's alien makers and mine are the older ones that need to be broken in first and believe me I've tried jamming many, many different things into those 3DPrinted pieces of crap to no avail, but the newer version apparently don't need to be broken in so I'm not absolutely writing them off.

Aaanyways, I found, on the floor while buying groceries, this tiny keyring. I have no idea where to purchase one, but it's about the size of a USD Penny and it's made out of what looks to be 14/16 AWGauge wire that had been wrapped around a sharpie three times. It's tight as hell and works the best out of anything I've ever used, I just wish I could find where to actually buy it.

Besides that, the old ribbon slider trick works well enough most of the time, just gotta carefully crimp them down with flat-nosed pliers.

I saw this thing and I'm incredibly tempted to purchase or make my own, as I believe it would be one of the most useful tools.

Last but most promising is this contraption and this one seems to be the improved 2.0 version. I would purchase one if I still had problems because I'm certain it would work amazingly, but the jeweler's hand vise works well enough, even with the jerkiness.

TL;DR, my personal suggestion is:

The absolute best thing I have discovered to keep multiple cores straight is a technique rather than a tool: put your wires into the drill chuck as straight as you can, bending them into Ls to match the three jaws and wrap 36-40g wire around the starting point of the wire like twenty times for about half of a centimeter and then crimp it down hard as you can with pliers while not bending the cores. It works so well that you don't even need to use anything else if you do it just right!

Hope all this can help you guys, feel free to share this information wherever with whoever whenever needed.

I like this because it is sparkly! It's on Rebekah's Wish List.

I like my organizational and prioritization skills, as well as my creativity. I'm pretty awesome in my opinion....lol.....

Good luck in your new job and congrats! That's very exciting! I'm starting a new job soon as well, and I know I'm excited also =)

I think /u/HopelessSemantic should be gifted. I know she's my wife, and I might be biased, but there are reasons for this.

She is an amazing and wonderful person. She's super kind and always makes me happy. Without her my life would be empty and devoid of any meaning. She lights up my entire life with happiness. Despite always being in pain she still finds the will to do the house things around the house. Like cooking and baking and cleaning. I don't know how she does it, and I count myself the luckiest guy in the world for just having known her. Pretty hair clip should cover the five dollar item.

My go-to is a quick bun held in place with two smallish octopus clips. It holds quite well if I just twist, spiral, and clip (no hair elastic necessary), and it takes like five seconds to do. I have to redo it if I do something bouncy like a mat run, but it stays for basically everything else.

Some of my friends have slipperier hair than me, and they find that two spin pins work better for them than two octopus clips.

If I want something more secure, I'll go full-on classical ballet bun. I'll get my hair damp with a spray bottle, ponytail, and pin the shit out of it. I find that two-stranded buns hold the best and look the nicest (personal preference, though). I'm sure it's not good for my hair, but it's practically indestructible. You can jazz it up by doing a braided bun, a twist-and-braid combo, twists or french braids into the bun, and a bunch of other things.

Ugh, this is making me miss my long hair. I just cut a foot off.

Hi! I'm not the commenter but I also clip my roots and it honestly could be a game changer for you I think! I like double prong clips, like the devacurl ones. These are the ones I use, way cheaper than devacurl's- https://www.amazon.ca/Hairdressing-Wobe-Setting-Alligator-Hairpins/dp/B07C17DYNS/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?keywords=curl+clips&qid=1565656971&s=gateway&sr=8-3

And then for how to clip them, I tried of techniques from this video- https://youtu.be/LFLCD12RKbw

Good luck :)

Well first of all I hope you have a fantastic birthday!!! but for realz - these hair clips because my last one just broke this morning would be excellent. Especially if Patrick Kane is our hero!

Thanks for the contest :)

Thanks for the contest...Smile=)

La looks and deva curl doesn’t work for me. I use either SM momongo gel, the eco styler flax seed or SM gel with the pink label. The SM curl enhancing smoothie too.

CG approved styling foam includes creme of nature styling foam, and there’s one by styleID I LOVE bc you can use heat (I diffuse with med heat idc idc)

I use twisty Bobby pins like this and hair clips like this puff cuff like i said, great when I need a pony without the headache.

Item: My friend loves peacocks, she would adore this.

Now that's a knife!! Thanks for the contest, that was fun. :D

It's been longer than 3 hours, but it doesn't say closed, so oh well.

These are adorable. So are these.

However, if you don't like cat ears, there's always these cute nightlights, this scarf, this lightbulb, or the first season of Felicity because why not?

I can also personally recommend this pretty hair clip, and this one, both of which I got from lovely RAOA people.

Did she do her hair that day? Did you show her some of your pictures in a similar style ahead of time? Did you deliver on matching the style that they (probably) saw ahead of time? If you followed through on capturing the moment and processing the images in a way that's consistent with your normal work flow, then I'd say you're in the clear.

If she really wants a reshoot, offer another session at your normal rate. If she doesn't like that idea, you could offer a discount on another session as compensation since she's not happy with how she did her hair that day.

How did you bill her? If you gave her an invoice, make sure to write the full price and then deduct a discount (Friends & Family usually works well). This way, they know they're getting a discount. That doesn't quite apply here, but it's good advice for any future work of this nature.

Also, I'd recommend keeping hairspray, bobby pins, hair clips, and hair ties. It'll cost you about $20 up front for all of those things but you'll be able to save yourself hours and hours later in editing hair and your clients will be so much happier with you during the shoot. Also, I'd recommend keeping a mirror in your kit as well.

>Headbands and bandanas are amazing if you want to look like a basketball player or Axl Rose.

Cool? That's your opinion, just like my opinion is that a top-knot makes you look silly. I'll take both of those over the latter.

>Also, you said dozens of different ways. I only see 7 things linked here with a few duplicates.

Lmao. That's what you want to nitpick about? The goal is keeping hair out of your eyes, not fancy hairstyles:

HAIR TIES / CLIPS

Here are the ones I use: It takes a little bit to get the hang of how to use them and how to fit your hair in them, I usually wrap my hair into a bun form first, then place the clip on. For my normal / thin hair, I find the clip stays in better when it is wet. https://www.reddit.com/r/ZeroWaste/comments/bierpj/in_case_anyone_needs_ideas_i_replaced_those_large/  - the metal one doesnt work the greatest but the coconut shell one works amazing!!

Thanks for the contest. People like you make the world a better place a happier place.

It is frustrating when you have to learn it all on your own. I didn't get taught anything but how to fear my mother. So cooking, cleaning, girl stuff etc was all on me to learn alone.

If you haven't seen it yet, I recommend r/raisedbynarcissists and r/JUSTNOMIL for connecting with others who have dealt with abusive parents. They would be good for advice to deal with the psychological mindfuck aspect.

I just recently bought some cheap hair clips from Amazon and they make me feel dressy even with a basic style. Like I'll twist mine into a simple bun, but then clip the very ends with the clip and BOOM, looks fancy as shit.

I was given from a friend on r/Random_Acts_of_Amazon a peacock clip and I'm waiting on this bow clip to arrive. Something like those may help you feel like a ponytail is pretty.

OMG MI

I've never been to Michigan but I have moved a lot. Only take things that would be hard or expensive to replace. Like you can get a couch cheaper (if you don't mind used) than it would be to move it. Why not sell it before you move?


I tried to keep my item on the cheap side. My fiancé is currently unemployed and I know it sucks with little to no income. Good luck! :)

I keep it long so I can twist it up in a bun and use a single alligator clip, this prevents the breakage that would happen with a ponytail or barrette. I also don't wash my hair very much (dry shampoo along with cornstarch/coco/cinnamon mixture works wonders.) and by not very much I often go two or three weeks without washing, this makes it much easier to twist up in a single clip. I start the twist near the crown of my head and go down with it then fold it up and put in the clip from the bottom, this seems to work the best for me.

alligator clip like these
And these clips work well also.

I think it much easier to put up hair that's a bit dirty than when it's slippery after just washing.

If my fella didn't express a strong preference to my long hair it would be about an inch long all the way around, I've told him if we ever break up the hair is coming off the next day.

Woot, woot, thanks for the hoots!

I use an extra large octopus clip to put my hair up because all hair ties just end up knotted into my very thick hair. These work well for me: https://www.amazon.com/Scunci-No-slip-Octopus-Natural-Tortoise/dp/B00J6SDPTU/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3TLVDAUJRCB2K&keywords=octopus%2Bhair%2Bclips%2Bfor%2Bwomen&qid=1555619628&s=gateway&sprefix=octopus%2Bhair%2B%2Caps%2C282&sr=8-1&th=1

If I am sleeping then I pineapple it on top of my head to preserve my curls, but if I just want it up to work out or whatever I gently pull it back into a ponytail shape, plop the ends on top of my head, clip at the back of my head where I want the most volume, then rearrange the ends over it.

I used these Vidal Sassoon Omega Claw Clips, Large when my hair was long, and I have very thick hair. They work very well and are super cheap. I have gotten them at Walmart, Fred Meyers, and Target before. You just twist your hair up into your bun, then open and place the clip over the bun letting it touch your scalp on either side. Then let it slide shut while gently pressing it to your scalp.

This hair clip would be great so I can look less like a bum at work Lol.

My hair is waist-length again, and I can get a messy bun with 2 spin pins, a nice proper bun with 4 spin pins.

However, I have also twisted two spin pins into each other before and that was an absolute nightmare, so sometimes I use a big claw clip to just hold my bun in place on the top. That works best if I twist super well.

I have also used hair sticks, just basic ones I got from Sally Beauty Supply like these, but I found that I have to use 3-4 to get a secure hold, which can look a little bizarre. Sometimes I use pens or chopsticks as a make-shift way to hold a bun but they don't stay in place for long.

ok, high porosity makes sense if it's color treated. So, I use either the Hask Keratin protein mask or the Shea Moisture Manuka Honey and Mafura Oil deep conditioners, and both of them work really well. In fact, I was having issues just last week because I had moved climates and my hair was getting REALLY dry... so I did an extra-long treatment with the Shea Moisture one (left it in for about 45 minutes) and my hair is MUCH better again. Now, I don't recommend doing that, it risks protein overload, but a good 20 minute treatment might be what you need.


I have to do a mask about once a week to keep mine looking good.


Personally I just use some little butterfly clips that I had lying around, but these ones are the actual recommended style: https://www.amazon.ca/Diane-Double-Prong-Clips-Count/dp/B00143WQI6/ref=pd_cp_194_1?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00143WQI6&pd_rd_r=b003856c-baf3-11e8-a904-6bfe9a9fef2d&pd_rd_w=Wx9zp&pd_rd_wg=CEFcc&pf_rd_i=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_m=A3DWYIK6Y9EEQB&pf_rd_p=95448740-5917-4df8-bb6a-086a0d0bb079&pf_rd_r=0ZCG00FMHRGEFESYRHZR&pf_rd_s=desktop-dp-sims&pf_rd_t=40701&psc=1&refRID=0ZCG00FMHRGEFESYRHZR

(note that is the Canadian Amazon site!)

I just use these regular clips. There are all kinds of variations. The dollar store is a great place to pick up a bunch of different types so you can experiment and see what you like. I’ve also used these type of clips as well.

This!

I love cheap
Thanks!

I had the same problem with hair ties so I got this style of hair clip. I pile my hair on top of my head and use this clip to keep it in place. This probably wouldn't work for people with very long hair but mine is just about shoulder length so it works for me. The next morning I use a small spray bottle with a mixture of water and conditioner (mostly water, probably about 10 parts water to 1 part conditioner). I spray my hair and scrunch the curls with my hands. Honestly, some days my second-day curls are better than the first day.

yours truly. there is one other thing coming.

Edit: Hair Clip is on its way

Edit 2: TIL non amazon supported gifts look like they are secret regardless of making a gifted post

I tend to pineapple my hair (maybe not all the way to the front and usually with an octopus clip ) and sometimes I'll use a headband if my hair keeps going in my face.

I don't cover my hair completely, but I'm sure there are some people here who do :)

I like using some mini clips like these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B003YOVCLU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_ISiBDbHM1BQFV

To clip back my hair when it is wet so that it dries in that position and stays out of my face. Not sure if that would work for the shape/length of your hair, but if it does that could be an easy fix.

Ive never been able to do anything with my hair. I worked in a call center for so long that the bun in a clip is the default. I have fine scraggly hair but there is apparently "a lot of it" says anyone who does my hair which is rare lol. I use these which used to be sold in stores and now I can only find them on Amazon and they hold a ton of hair. I live 10 miles inland in Florida so its either windy, hot as balls, humid or some combination of all of them so I wear it up a lot. http://www.amazon.com/Vidal-Sassoon-Piece-Omega-Clips/dp/B007P296VA/ref=sr_1_sc_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1452045401&sr=8-3-spell&keywords=vidal+sasoon+hair+clip

They're great for thick hair or lots of hair.

Maybe something like a metal hair claw?

The link is probably a mess but hopefully it sends you to the right place.

Edit: the brand also has metal octopus clips too.

She can GET IT.

Item from my hair list.

Get them because you are amazing and deserve them.

Amazon, like this, this, and this

and then buy a gold chain and connect them. Wayyy cheaper than $900.

Idk how much hair you have, but I've starting using these almost exclusively: Scunci No-slip Grip Octopus Clip, 8.5 Cm, [Natural, Tortoise Shell, Black] Set of 3 https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00J6SDPTU/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_awd_eZLQwbQM2T36F Almost any hair ties either pull my hair too much or don't hold it up well enough. This lets me just pile it up on top of my head and clip it there without the weight pulling on it.

It's a "claw clip" yours is also curved, here's yours on Amazon, but you can find plenty of claw clips for cheaper if it doesn't have to be curved like yours

.37 a physical item and free shipping!

That's really bs, why do people have to be so damn rude? I hope this cheers you up. Here's my item!

The extra fabric you aren't currently stitching which isn't inside the hoop/frame you are using to stitch? I guess it would depend on what kind of stitching frame you are using. With my qsnaps I generally roll it up and use a large hair clip to contain it and hold it to the side of the frame. With scroll frames I generally set it so the dowels are she same size as the shortest side of fabric and then the fabric just gets rolled around whichever dowel to move where I'm stitching at. Regular embroidery hoops and even stitching in hand without any type of frame would work the same as the qsnaps with just rolling it up and using something like the hair clips to hold it. The only other type of frame I can think of at the moment are the stretcher bar style where the fabric is tacked to the bars and I really can't stand those because (IMO) they are extremely limited in what size projects you can make without the frame getting extremely unwieldy.

How about this

Hey, I also have super long hair, and braids are the best solution i've found. My hair is usually too heavy to stay up in a bun (ie, I am too lazy to put in the number of pins required to keep it secure during cardio), but if I do a french braid, it stays flat against my head, which lets me have good form on anything lying down, and i can also kind of tuck/roll up up the bottom into a low bun sort of if it's really bothering me.

Also, these are a miracle for when I'm extra lazy. Totally thought they wouldn't stay but they're some kind of fantastic design that locks everything in place.

I use about 5 pumps of gel, and I use clips like these to add extra volume when I diffuse! They really help control the curl and add some volume, especially on the front pieces.

How often you clarify is really up to you. I find that I need to do it about every 3 weeks (more/less depending on how often I've gone to the gym or other things that tend to get my scalp gross).

Root clipping is where you put little clips like these in your hair right up to the scalp. There's a few different ways to do it. I found this one to be the most helpful, but there's plenty of videos and tutorials.

I don't have advice on how to make it work because I have the exact same issue with plopping BUT last time I got my hair cut I asked my hairdresser what I could do to give my curls some more volume around the top of my head and she suggested getting clips like these and inserting them around the crown of my head with the tips pointing toward the top of my head. It holds the roots up while my curls set and then I can just pull them out whenever I want and I have the volume I am looking for. It doesn't in any way solve the problem of not being able to plop my curls so I've just lived without that but they hold up alright anyway. Sorry I can't help with your actual problem! Hope this helps someone at least!

this would be nice for only $1.72

I have this same problem too! What works for me is snap clips instead of bobby pins, one above each ear. They lie flat, you can get them in a color to match your hair so they are less noticeable, and don't slide.

Basically anything like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B008S5743A/ref=mp_s_a_1_6?qid=1396967283&sr=8-6&pi=AC_SX110_SY165_QL70

Hair clips, especially the rounded little clamps. I use these to keep all my wires neatly together. Clips picture

Cheepy Cheepy!

I don't know how to braid, but I use these clips to keep my hair up. http://www.amazon.com/Scunci-No-slip-Grip-Octopus--Count/dp/B001SXPSD2/ref=sr_1_8?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1412255253&sr=1-8&keywords=hair+clips

I take my hair, twist it, and then pin it up with the clip. My hair doesn't look as good when I take it down, but it usually looks okay.

Plopping, clipping (can use any type of duckbill clip), mousse/root lifter, etc.

Beer me! peacock hair clip

I found them here five dollars for 80 as compared to only 8 deva clips for $17

I bought this on amazon!

Not sure if this would work for your hair type but with my wavy/curly hair I use the root clipping method while my hair is drying to get more volume.

These are the clips I use: Root Clips

There’s plenty of videos online that will show you how to use them if you just search “root clipping”

It reminded me of a piece of a metal hair snap clip, missing the outer part of the clip.

Edited to add:

But u/meghareaux's guess could very well be right: the odd bend could be to hold a pull-out keyboard drawer in the out position so it doesn't move around while in use, but a firm push would overcome the spring effect and allow the drawer to slide back into its recess. So you might check if the channel of a pull-out drawer might be missing that part.

Look at this pretty hair comb!!! Its so pretty! And an absolute steal at $3.00

Thanks for the contest!!

I got this one.

The only problem I'm having it's on a clip, not a comb. My hairdresser, for my first test run, pinned it in place and it held. The second time, she did not, and it yanked my hair out.

How Can you not love these?

Peacock Hair Clip

What about Adelynn?

It's this one here. If I were you, I'd look for a little bit pricier version, though... this one was broken when I opened it. I hot glued it to a plain barrette, though.

Craziest thing was when I let a friend cut my hair in the bathroom during lunch time in high school... My father had a weird thing about never letting me have short hair when I was a kid, so as a teenager after I had asked to have my hair cut and been told no, I told my friends at school and... well, I already said what happened after that. (Yes, I did get in trouble with my dad afterward... but he never tried to force me to have long hair again, because he knew I'd cut it myself no matter what he said.)

Here's a thing

Zombie Monkey

I mostly only do it near my part, in one of these styles. I'm really bad at it, but you can get results even if you don't do a super great job. I think I got some cheap pack from amazon. When I'm removing them, I pull a lot of single hairs which is pretty annoying and if plopped or diffused after putting them in, it can be a huge pain.

The results are so nice though!

I NEED THESE. Because I stepped on one of mine the other day and broke it, and then I lost my other one yesterday :(

You don't understand the struggle. Ponytails are harsh on the head, man. Jaw clips are the way to go. WHY DID MINE HAVE TO DIE SUCH TRAGIC DEATHS? :(

thx for the contest

luv u bby
