I've tried the flat 'banana clip' style ones, but those have to be able to close to stay in place, so as someone said earlier, your hair has to be the exact right circumference. I guess the key with this shape is that they are narrower and longer than a regular claw clip, so they go farther around the hair without any real height. (Which is why regular claw clips don't work - they have more prongs but the prongs are shorter, I guess is the way to describe it.) Let me dig out the one I have left and I'll take a picture.
