The secret to styling hair on the finer side is grip. Investing in accessories with a firm grip is the most important product attribute that you need to look out for. When deciding on claw clips, you need to opt for those that have teeth that are close together and firmly overlap, leaving no room for hair to escape. Our hair accessory experts have designed our range of hair clips suitable for fine hair types with this in mind.
In this blog we review the best hair accessories for finer hair types. You can also find out more tips and tricks on keeping your fine hair perfectly in place all day here.

The Sophia Side Hair Claws are also perfect for hair on the finer side. These claws come in three sizes, Small, Medium and Large which you can choose depending on your hair length. These side hair claws are brilliant for holding your hair without having your claw stand out when resting your head on the back of a chair, in a car for example.
The Essentials Medium Steph Hair Claw Is another favourite for customers with fine hair as the teeth on this claw cross over creating a firm grasp.
How do you get barrettes to stay in fine hair?
Barrettes for fine hair
There are many accessories that you can use to style your hair in the most fashionable of ways. A style favourite for mid-long length hair which can be created with both Thick Hair and Fine Hair is the barrette bun style. To create this style, simply twist your hair into a low bun, twirling the hair around your finger as you go to get a tight bun and secure it with a barrette. Alternatively, simply clasp your hair at the nape of the neck with a Wide Arched Barrette. To prevent barrettes slipping in fine hair, spray some hairspay on the section of hair you are placing the barrette or tease the hair slightly.
The Most suitable barrettes clips for fine hair are those with a straight bar such as the Narrow Bar Barrette, Mini Rectangle Barrette, 8cm Small Barrette and the Geometric Barrette which is 10cm in length - this is the barrette featured in the video below. Alternatively, for Thick Hair Types, you can create this style using an Arched Barrette.
Long, Fine Hair Accessories
For longer fine hair, the Large Hair Claw and the Medium Filigree Hair Claw are the perfect match because they have a firm comfortable grasp, allows for a larger volume of hair to be held in a secure and comfortable way which really is the best of both worlds.
