If you've ever spent five minutes carefully clipping your toddler's hair only to watch it fall out thirty seconds later, you already know that not all hair clips are created equal. Here's what actually works — and why our customers keep coming back.
What to Look for in Baby Hair Clips
- Secure grip — the clip needs to hold through running, rolling and everything in between
- Lightweight — heavy clips pull on fine baby hair and become uncomfortable quickly
- Gentle hold — no pulling, snagging or damaging delicate hair
- Safe backing — secure fastenings that won't come loose and become a hazard
- Fun designs — because toddlers are much more likely to keep them in if they love them

Tips for Getting Hair Clips to Stay In
- Always clip on dry hair — wet hair is slippery and clips slide out more easily
- For very fine hair, use smaller clips closer to the root rather than mid-length
- Let your toddler pick the clip — they're much more invested in keeping it in!
- Hair ties work better than clips for very short or thin hair
