Collection: Barrettes & Hair Clips

Choose a shape for your style

Start with the section of hair you want to style. A narrow side clip can add detail beside a part, while a barrette or snap clip can finish a half-up section. For a more decorative focal point, look for a shape or surface detail that suits the rest of your outfit. The Crystal Leaf Snap Hair Clip brings a crystal leaf detail; the Cellulose Acetate Teardrop Barrette has a smooth, curved shape.

Compare the exact measurements on each product page to judge how much hair the clip may cover. Each page also lists a Hold level—Light, Medium, or Strong—estimated from size and construction. Treat that as a guide when choosing, not a promise about how it will wear in your hair.

How to wear barrettes and clips

For a side sweep, make a part where you like it, gather a small section from the side, and guide it back toward your ear. Open the clip before placing it over the gathered section, then close it without pulling the hair tight. Adjust the placement so the clip sits flat and the detail faces outward.

For a half-up look, take an even section from each side and bring them together at the back of your head. Smooth the top with your fingers, place the barrette across the joined section, and check the view from the front. To keep the look softer, leave a few face-framing strands free. For a simple accent, use one clip near the temple rather than adding several competing details.

Pair shapes and details thoughtfully

Let the clip’s shape guide the rest of the styling. A curved barrette works neatly across a gathered section; a leaf or butterfly shape can add a distinct point of interest to a simple side sweep. The Crystal Rose Duck-Bill Side Hair Clip pairs a floral detail with a side placement, while an embroidered leaf style can echo a floral pattern in clothing.

Keep the rest of your accessories in the same visual direction. If the clip has crystal detail, choose understated earrings or skip extra shine near the face. With polka-dot acetate, repeat the pattern only once elsewhere in the outfit, or let the clip stand on its own. These small choices help the hair accessory feel intentional without crowding the look.

Care and storage

Release a clip before lifting it away from your hair; avoid dragging it through the section. After wearing, wipe it gently with a soft, dry cloth and store it separately from other accessories to reduce rubbing and tangles. Keep fabric details from catching on nearby pieces by giving them their own space.

When choosing between metal, acetate, and fabric styles, consider where and how you plan to wear the piece, then check its product page for the listed materials and exact measurements. If you are deciding between a side clip and a barrette, compare their shape and size on the page before ordering.
