Acetate rather than moulded plastic, with a metal spring clasp behind it. Acetate is what better hair accessories are cut from, because it takes a pattern properly and does not go brittle and snap along a seam after a few months in a handbag.

The pattern is black and brown, the tortoiseshell look that sits happily against almost any hair colour. What you notice in use is that the clasp keeps its tension. A barrette with a soft spring is worse than no barrette, because it fails halfway through the day rather than at the start of it.

  • Acetate body with a metal spring clasp
  • Smooth edges slide in without snagging
  • Holds updos, half-ups and twists without slipping
  • Black and brown pattern works across hair colours

Good for anyone who wants one clip that handles a work day and an evening without needing to be swapped out.

Application tips

A French twist is where this one earns its keep. Sweep the hair to one side, twist it up against the back of the head, then clip through the fold from the outside so the barrette takes both the twist and the hair beneath.

Keep it away from direct heat. Acetate is stable, but it does not enjoy being left on a radiator or next to a hot pair of straighteners.

Results

Solid hold from a clip that does not feel plastic. The spring stays tight, so what you fastened at nine is still fastened at nine in the evening, and the surface keeps its depth of pattern instead of going cloudy and scratched.

Edges are smooth enough to slide in without catching on the surface hair. Thick hair is handled as well as fine, given a decent grip to bite into.

Composition

Acetate
Holds pattern with real depth and stays flexible instead of going brittle
Metal Spring Clasp
Keeps its tension, so the barrette is still holding by evening
