In case you haven’t noticed, this practical yet pretty hair trend is back with a (hair) bang. What’s more, it’s a trend that can be adopted by anyone and everyone. The return of the humble hair clip has our Instagram feeds flooded with a somewhat sweet accessory from yesteryear.
Amongst other retro pieces experiencing a renaissance – slides, grips, butterfly clips, bows scrunchies and bobby pins – the oversized hair clip offers a nostalgic nod to our younger years, when beauty was simple and our hair choices were managed by our mothers.
From bejewelled clips to pearl encrusted pins and from tortoiseshell grips to slogan slides, adding accessories to your do has never been so fashionable. Don’t be afraid to mix, match, layer and stack – once you’ve perfected placement, this look can take you from schoolgirl to sophisticated in just one snap.
