5 Easy Claw Clip Hairstyles You Can Do in Under a Minute

A claw clip is the easiest hair accessory you can own. It holds thick or fine hair, takes seconds to use and works with almost any outfit. Here are five looks to try.

1. The classic twist

Gather your hair into a ponytail at the back of your head, twist it upward and fold it over, then clip it in place. Pull out a few strands at the front for a softer look.

2. The half-up

Take the top half of your hair, twist it back and clip it at the crown. Leave the rest down. It is a quick way to keep hair off your face.

3. The low twist

For a neat, polished look, twist your hair into a low bun at the nape of your neck and secure it with a medium or large clip.

4. The ponytail clip

Use a claw clip like a ponytail holder. Gather your hair high or low and clip it with the ends loose for a casual, easy style.

5. The side twist

Twist your hair to one side and clip it just above your ear for an asymmetrical look that works well with a trench or knit.

Tips

  • Choose a larger clip for thicker or longer hair.
  • Clip at the base of the twist so the clip stays secure.
  • Want a fringe too? Try a clip-in bang.
