When it comes to keeping your hair out of the way, barrette clips are a stylish and practical solution. These versatile hair accessories offer endless styling opportunities for any hair type or length.

How to wear a half up dos

If you prefer a half up do, barrette clips can easily incorporate a twist into your hairstyle. Simply gather the top half of your hair and secure it with a barrette clip for a chic and polished look.

French Twist Look

Another way to wear a barrette clip is a French roll look. Depending on your hair length, you will either get a traditional look or a pony French roll.

Here’s how to achieve the look:

Brush your hair to remove tangles.
Gather all your hair together at the back of your neck.
Roll your hair up into a cylindrical shape.
Clip the barrette at the base of the roll.
Tuck stray hairs under the roll and adjust as needed.

Low Pony

You can easily keep your hair out of the way by using the barrette clip to hold your hair in a low pony.

Brush your hair: Remove any tangles or knots.
Gather your hair: Collect all your hair together at the nape of your neck, just above the hairline.
Secure with barrette: Clip the barrette at the base of the gathered hair, with the teeth of the clip facing downwards.
Adjust and tuck: Adjust the barrette to sit comfortably and tuck any stray hairs under the clip.
Finish: You're done! You should now have a sleek and effortless low ponytail.

Side Barrette Look

Simply clip separate a piece of hair and pull back. Open the clip on the barrette and slide up in an angle just above your ear on the side of your head.

With barrette clips, the possibilities are truly endless. Experiment with different placements, styles, and designs to find the perfect look for any occasion. Whether you're heading to work, a special event, or just running errands, barrette clips are a simple yet effective way to elevate your hairstyle.
