Where to find hair-safe ornamental metal claw clips?

[Entangled]

Today I wore my hair in a coronet braid (I think—is there a different name when you use two broads instead of one?), and it’s a super easy, simple style that’s comfortable, not boring, and gets compliments. The only thing is that it’s only easy and comfortable when I use claw clips. Here is the style.

I want to do this more often, but I only have the two clips and they don’t go with everything. The problem is, I don’t know where else to find such sturdy, snag-free clips. The ones I have are from Goody, I think, but I haven’t seen more around.

Sorry for the huge pictures.

I’ve looked a little but Etsy mostly pulls up this (https://www.etsy.com/shop/LindasAccessories?ref=s2-header-shopname&listing_id=575103892) shop; I can’t tell how sharp the edges are. As you can see from my picture, these are hefty little clips, but the payoff is smooth edges that never snag. Do you know where I can find similar clips?

I have found some on Amazon years in the past; perhaps do a search there...and check item reviews :hmm:

Years ago I had bought from this store (https://www.amazon.com/s?me=A1BGMA3NPE5AEN&marketplaceID=ATVPDKIKX0DER) , was quite pleased, and still use them actually....but can't attest to their quality at present.

Thank you! I will check them out.

As I was looking through the Etsy store, it’s the “tiny mini clips” that I just can’t seem to get a finger on, because not a single picture is clear enough for me to see if there’s an edge on the times or not.

Sure :)

They were very pretty and sturdy; some were plain metal others were jeweled...I even got their small barrettes and haven't broken a single one of either yet.

Hopefully they are still reliable (reviews are helpful) because I would buy them again for sure!
They were nice and smooth, no rough tines or catching in the springs or barrette hinges....especially where my hair is so wispy.

Good luck :cheer:

Yes, the one I linked in my post :)
They were good about answering questions back then too....not sure about now.

I think the search results started including other results beyond the seller, because the actual store doesn’t seem to say that.
