Casual Elegance: How to Wear a Claw Clip in Style
The claw clip, often underestimated, is the ultimate hair accessory for creating hairstyles that are both simple and sophisticated. Here we reveal four elegant and effortless ways to wear a claw clip with iconic hairstyles: the ponytail, the messy bun, the half-tail and finally the obvious French Twist.
Ponytail
The classic ponytail becomes instantly chic with the addition of a claw clip. For this look, start by tying your hair into a classic ponytail. Next, choose an appropriately sized clip and insert it horizontally through the base of the ponytail. Be sure to leave some of the hair sticking out through the clip for a casual and elegant effect.
Messy bun
The messy bun, symbol of nonchalant elegance, is even easier to make with claw clips.. Gather your hair into a loose bun at the desired height. To hold it in place, use a claw clip diagonally across the bun, allowing the strands to protrude casually. This hairstyle is ideal for a casual everyday look.
Half Ponytail
The half-tail, a revisited classic, becomes an elegant choice with a claw clip. To create this hairstyle, separate a section of hair from the top of your head and tie it into a half ponytail. Secure it with a clip, placing the clip at the base of the half-tail for a discreet but secure hold.
French twist
The iconic hairstyle that lends itself perfectly to the use of a claw clip is the "French twist". To create this look, gather all of your hair into a ponytail, which you twist gently upwards. Secure the tips in place using crab pliers, ensuring a sleek hold. For a touch firmly anchored in the 90s, don't hesitate to release two thin strands on each side of your face.
