CLIPS FOR THICK HAIR & MY UPDO PICS!

[Netta1]

I wanted to share pics of my updo I wore to church today....also I want to ask you all what clips work the best for thick hair b/c I've already broken three teeth on this one....



Here you go....

Sooooo any clip recommendations??? I would like to be able to wear all of my hair in one clip....

Cute style, where did you find the one you are wearing in the pic?

Pretty Netta.

Flexi8 clips hold up my hair very well. Also the Goody Brand (I think Goody) at Target or Walgreens that are for thick hair. These hold my hair up well.

Don't forget about the long skinny clips too. I will find a pic and come back and post what I am talking about.

Like this. I call it a Banana clip but I didn't want to get it confused with the comb like banana clips I use to wear as a teen.

Thanks, I got this one from sallys I think....however I've already broken three teeth on it---and that was only with half of my hair

oh and btw I've only worn my hair in this clip (out of the house) once....in the "test run" I broke three teeth...

The only clips that have not broken after 2-3 uses for me are flexi8 clips. I love those and have some that are over 3 yrs old! Still going strong! lol

Hmmm so do you wrap your hair around this????

I have bought the ones for "thick" hair before and they dont hold up either. The springs come out and the teeth are missing in all my clips, lol.

Your hair is so pretty. I love the texture of our hair.

Thank you!!!!!! It can be a handful...but I like it

Why do you all always get shy on me????? I knows* somebody has some clip recs??????

 

[Je Ne Sais Quoi]

Your hair is delicious!

 

[Solitude]

Very pretty, your hair and hairstyle look great.

I have that same clip in your pic. My hair just barely fits in it if i twist it enough or straighten it. I'm on the search for clips too. The ones in the store don't seem to be big enough. I dont really like those long clips like this

I'm not sure what to do with them.

 

[Iluvsmuhgrass]

When the pictures loaded, I peed a little bit. lol. Your hair is gorgeous!!!

On the clip I pictured, I twist my hair up and use the clip to hold it in place. I do not wrap the hair around it. I really love those.


You can find flexi8 clips here: http://www.flexi8.com/ There are many threads around here on them if you want more reviews. I for one, swear by them and love them! Many others do also. *They normally have a sale every year around Christmas time.*

Clips aren't made for hair like ours. Flexi8 is pretty good, they are very strong. My hair snags on them sometimes, though.

Ficcares are good, too. ficcare.com

Thanks for the link to the flexi8, but after watching the video, I'm still not sure on the sizing. What do you suggest for apl natural and straightened ponies and up dos? I'm not nearly as thick and Mwedi ( my hair idol), but often break the teeth out of common clips too.

I am not a fan of long clips either b/c I too don't know how to use them right.

LOL, you are nuts
