Scünci Hair Barrette Hair Accessories for Women, Metal, No-Slip Grip, 6 Ct

I have buying these types of clips since the 1980s. They hold up well don't really rust. I need to buy them because I lose everything. They look fine and they hold well. You can use them for all kinds of hairstyles. In the 80's we braided ribbon around them for decoration :-) . I have fine hair and they work fine. I used to have much thicker hair and they worked on that hair type as well.

First off, I have very fine, slightly wavy hair of medium thickness. It's hard to contain it when it's breezy and the texture causes most ties, barrettes, etc. to slip right out. I tried these based on the claims of the ad and some reviews. I'm very impressed! They hold a fair amount of hair, but not a large piece. They don't move at all. They only complaint I have is that it's hard to slip the back piece in and out of the end to secure them ( hope that makes sense). They are not very flexible. I just started using them so maybe that will get easier over time. I think the colour variety will coordinate with my hair and clothes.

Exactly what I was looking for. A little smaller and thinner than what I had before, but acceptable.

I was pleasantly surprised at the effectiveness of these. I particularly like the silicone liner that prevents the barrette from sliding around. But after wearing them for a week, I have had a few little disappointments: 1) Two of the barrettes in my packet won't fasten - the curved part on the end of them is closed up too tightly; and 2) While wearing some of them on two different occasions, I've had a barrette suddenly spring open and thump my head right before jettisoning across the room - it was startling the first time it happened, I thought someone had come up behind me and given a little smack on my head. So now I'm making sure I don't try to put too much hair in the barrette in case that was the problem. All in all, though, I like these well enough to consider ordering again in the future.

Just happy to find them because I couldn't find them for a long time. I used to buy them but they're hard to find. They're a very nice little Hair clip and buy again.

I used to have the thickest most beautiful long brown hair. I have no idea why, but literally all in one day, a couple of years ago, my hair literally fell out in mass handfuls. Thick handfuls of strands, not just like when you brush your hair some comes out. I’m talking clumps. Thank God it didn’t leave bald spots. They were scattered around but, you can see it’s so much thinner, in places you can see slightly see scalp underneath. Literally, within 5 minutes I lost 90% of my hair. Thankfully no more has fallen out since that time. But, sadly, no serums, special shampoos, vitamins, treatments etc.. nothing, and I’ve tried about every brand expensive and cheap, has worked to bring it back. All that to explain this. My hair is so thin and light now it has single hair fly aways, like you can count them.. maybe 20 strands of hair blowing around my face :’( it only looks fuller when I pull it back away from my face. I can put every bit of it in a 1-2 inch thin barrette. But, they still slide right out. This is literally the ONLY one that holds my hair because it has a very thin rubber coating that grips it. The others that snap or say grip just because they have little teeth, or whatever… and I’ve tried every design, DO NOT HOLD. This one stays so good, I can sleep in it and it doesn’t fall out!!! Love these so much. I’ve never seen any other company that makes them like this AND.. am so thankful for them. If you need real grip… THESE ARE THE ONES. Trust me!

I did a LOT of research on these barrettes, read many mixed reviews, and finally decided to just try them for myself. I had bought some cheaper versions of these by Scunci previously, they were like bobby-pins with a barrette topper. Those were terrible, had no plastic "grip" part at all, so your hair had no reason to stay in place. I thought these new versions would be a great improvement, because they boasted a "grip" part and "all day hold". Well, not really... Now, this plastic grip lining is located around the bottom prong of the barrette and only kind of works. It it so smooth that it's almost as if there isn't a "grip" part at all. I was expecting a more factory glue-like texture, the kind that peels off of packages. I.e. something stickier. Also, the bottom prong is almost "U" shaped and not much of it is flat against the top, no pancake effect, and your hair will spread into the looped areas, giving room to come loose. So unless you gather a lot of hair and twist it around and really place the barrette tightly into your hair, it absolutely WILL slip out. You cannot just slide it up into your hair without twisting a large amount up first, especially if you straighten your hair. I have naturally wavy, medium-thick hair. When my hair is normal and dry, I still have to twist a bit of hair up first, but when my hair is smooth and straightened, I have to twist A LOT up, and even then it will slip out every now and then throughout the day and I must redo it. Also, to finally clip it into the hair is difficult and awkward, you have to force the metal bottom part sideways and up. So if you have very thick, curly hair, I'd say these would work best for you and anyone else will need to be patient with the product. They look great though, I have no regrets for having bought them, they are very stylish and sleek. They DO work pretty well too, just wish the "grip" was more effective, especially on a product from such a renown company/brand name. The barrettes are about 2.5 inches long and 1/3 inch wide and come in pairs of silver, tortoise-shell brown, and black.

I looked everywhere for these barrettes, found them here on Amazon. Work well, I like them very much

Son un poco caros pero me encantaron

The only barrettes that don't slip even when my hair is parted to the side, and when I do rigorous activities like sports.

I love these barrettes. I am 82 years old with arthritis in my fingers and I have no problem putting these in or taking them out of my hair. My hair is thin and fine and these barrettes stay in place; they are flat enough to sleep on. They are just the right size for me so I can now stop buying others which keep falling out.

Good quality
