You might have a bunch of hair clips from when you were a teen, and you kept them in your drawer when they went out of fashion. Now, it’s time to bring them out! You can even use bobby pins to whip up crazy looks. Check out these hair clip hairstyles to know the different ways you can wear your hair accessories.
Try These Hair Clip Hairstyles
1. Curly center part hairstyle
Flaunt your long hair in a down ‘do together with hair clips by sporting the curly center part hairstyle. Just curl the tips of your hair, then put a couple of hair clips to form an X on both sides of your head. Very easy, right?
Editor’s tip: For soft and bouncy hair that’s worth showing off, wash it with DOVE Oxygen and Nourishment Shampoo and DOVE Oxygen and Nourishment Conditioner.
2. Symmetrical clips
If your hair naturally parts at the center and you don’t want to change it, you can simple comb your hair neatly and add matching clips on either side. Go for this ‘do if you love timeless looks. Make sure you have a bunch of matching hair clips so you can wear different pairs every day.
3. Pin crown
Elevate your humble bobby pin. Gather as many as you want and create a bobby pin crown. You can form several triangles or squares that go from one side of your head to the other, or you can just place the pins randomly on your hair. Nail this look by choosing bobby pins that contrast with your natural hair color.
Editor’s tip: Get sleek and straight hair without going for expensive salon treatments by using Cream Silk Triple Keratin Rescue Ultimate Straight Conditioner.
4. Bob with hair clips
A symmetrical look also goes with a bob, especially if you have blunt bangs. Just place the hair clips near your ears so they won’t compete with your fringe, and all elements on your hair are given equal attention. Don’t forget to blow dry your bangs down and straight so they keep to their shape.
5. Floral hair accessories
Love spring and summer? Let your hair show it by wearing floral accessories. This look was even spotted at the Paris Fashion Week last January.
When you sport this ‘do, make sure that the shapes and colors of your floral hair accessories complement each other. Also, keep your hair sleek, shiny, and straight to give balance to your whole look.
6. Center parted medium hair
This look is also on trend this year; what more if you add hair clips to the picture. If you have a lob or shoulder-length hair, make sure that it is free from fly aways by blow drying or ironing your locks. Then, finish with a drop of hair serum to add shine.
Editor’s tip: Keep fly aways and frizz at bay with TONI&GUY High Shine Serum Drops.
7. One sided clip short hairstyle
You don’t always have to wear hair clips in pairs. A one sided clip can make for a simple romantic short hairstyle, especially when you add some waves or texture to your hair. It’s also a quick and easy way to look extra pretty on a regular day, even if you’re just wearing a shirt-and-jeans combo.
8. Short blunt haircut
When you think you look plain in your simple blunt bob, add hair clips! You can wear plain ones, or choose clips with different shapes for a more playful look. Wearing hair clips can also help you showcase statement earrings, so make sure your hair and fashion accessories complement each other.
9. Slicked back
When it comes to glam looks, our personal favorite slicked back hairstyle can use hair clips as an accent. A perfect ‘do for date nights and special events, it goes well with any pretty dress or ensemble you have laid out for the occassion. You can even wear the clips in geometric forms to raise your style notches edgier!
Editor’s tip: Spritz TRESemmé Salon Finish Extra Hold Hairspray on your ‘do to secure its hold all day long.
10. Pixie cut
Yup, even the shortest of hair lengths can wear hair clips! It’s also a great trick for taming your growing short hair, especially when it’s at its awkward stage. Just wear them on the side to neatly tuck your hair behind your ear for a sleek, chic hair clip hairstyle.
11. Bedazzled long hair
Who says you can’t go wild with hair clips? We beg to disagree! Mix-and-matching hair clips is a fun take on this trend that we strongly believe we should all try. You can even match it with your quirky outfit for a standout look.
12. Low messy bun
When you’re having a lazy day, hair clips can effortlessly elevate your ‘do. If you’re due for a formal affair but got no energy to glam up, you can just wear elegant clips on your underdressed hair –say a messy low bun– to match your outfit.
13. Side-parted long hair
Want to show off your beautiful long hair? Part your hair to the side and accessorize with a hair clip or two for a chic touch. Now the spotlight’s on your long, soft, and bouncy hair!

You can also create a wavy hairstyle with hair clips to spice up your everyday look. Just curl your hair outwards from your face using a curling iron to make big curls, add cute hair clips, and voila — simple chic ‘do achieved!
Editor’s tip: Before styling with any hot tool, spritz TONI&GUY Heat Protection Mist on your hair so it’s safe from any damage.
15. Claw clip updo
Level up your ‘do with an updo by using claw clips as your hair accessory. Crazy? We say high fashion! Use the black ones so it blends well with your black hair, perfect for an all-black ensemble.
Editor’s tip: For complex updos, a more potent hairspray is a must to give your hairstyle a firmer hold. Use the TRESemmé Freeze Hold Hairspray.
