Product Insights
The Dachshund Clip by Simons is a $15 CAD in-stock hair accessory made from renewable cellulose acetate that biodegrades >90% in freshwater (100 days) and seawater (142 days), though its metal spring does not biodegrade. Its dachshund silhouette attracts compliments, and the flexible acetate offers a gentle, non-slip hold for fine hair, with buyers reporting a secure hold for half-up styles. However, the clip is too petite for thick hair, failing to secure a full hold, making it good value only for fine to medium hair types.
Verified claims
- Hair type fit
- The brand's fit guidance says the clip works for both thick and fine hair, but one thick-haired buyer reports it is too small to hold securely.
- Value for hair type
- At $15 CAD, it offers good value for fine to medium hair, but not for thick hair.
- Biodegradation
- The clip's cellulose acetate body biodegrades over 90% in freshwater within 100 days and in seawater within 142 days under laboratory conditions.
- Material
- Cellulose acetate is derived from cellulose, a renewable natural polymer, and is flexible and durable.
- Biodegradability
- Cellulose acetate body biodegrades >90% in freshwater; metal spring does not.
- Design
- The clip has a glossy black body with translucent brown accents on the paws, snout, and tail tip, plus a white eye detail; buyers repeatedly describe the dachshund-shaped clip as cute and very pretty.
- Comfort
- Flexible, durable cellulose acetate adapts to hair shape for a gentle, non-slip hold in fine hair.
- Size
- At 3.75 inches (9.5 cm), the clip is a full-size decorative claw, matching the footprint of a standard 9 cm claw and larger than 5–7 cm travel versions.
- Durability
- Cellulose acetate and metal construction is industry-standard, with buyers reporting a sturdy feel.
- Against-scalp comfort
- The clip's cellulose acetate body reads as warm rather than cold against the head, while all-metal barrettes can feel harsh on the scalp during seated or reclined wear.
- Daily wear teeth durability
- The cellulose acetate teeth resist chipping better than brittle plastics, and none of the reviewers report teeth cracking or grip loosening over time; the material can still snap if over-flexed or dropped on a hard floor.
- Water resistance
- The clip is water-resistant enough for everyday humidity and the occasional splash, but heat and prolonged soaking can soften the acetate, so pool wear or long hot showers are not ideal; wipe it dry after contact with water rather than leaving it wet.

Everyday hair clip for finer hair
A dachshund-shaped clamp clip for keeping hair pulled back during the day. Reviewers describe it as sturdy and nice quality, and say it holds hair well. Note that customers with thick hair have reported it runs too petite to hold securely, so it may work best for finer or smaller amounts of hair.[2]
Half-up styles in fine hair
Per customer reviews, this dachshund clip works as a cute, functional accent for half-up styles in fine hair, holding securely without slipping. Reviews also note the clip runs small, so it may not hold securely for those with thick hair.[2]
A dachshund-themed accent for subtle everyday looks
Wear this dachshund-shaped clip as a decorative touch when you want a cute, breed-specific statement in your hair — reviewers say it earns compliments. It runs smaller than some shoppers expect, so it works well for subtle looks rather than big hair moments. Made with cellulose acetate, a flexible and durable material described as comfortable.[1,2]
