Product Insights
The Simons Rounded-Teeth Translucent Clip, priced at $15 CAD, is a 4-inch cellulose acetate hair clip with embedded color that won't fade or peel, offering a translucent tint that overlays natural hair for a custom blended look. Its rounded tooth tips and smooth edges prevent snagging, while the springy acetate provides comfortable all-day hold, though it is best suited for medium to thick hair. Naturally anti-static, it reduces flyaways, but care must be taken as alcohol-based products can cloud the acetate irreversibly; however, the surface can be professionally repolished if scratched. At under half the price of the Wirecutter-recommended Emi Jay clip, it offers value, but heat above 60°C will warp the clip.
Verified claims
- Color finish
- Embedded color won't fade or peel at the edges, even after years of use.
- Flexibility
- 100% cellulose acetate is more springy than rigid for comfortable, all-day hold.
- Hair type suitability
- The 4-inch (10.5 cm) length gives the clip decent capacity for medium to thick hair; fine or slippery hair may still hold with careful placement, but very thin hair isn't ideal.
- Anti-static
- Naturally anti-static to reduce static-induced flyaways.
- Tooth design
- Rounded tooth tips and smooth polished edges minimize snagging and pulling, and the curved teeth provide effective hold.
- Color blend
- The translucent teal finish overlays natural hair color, creating a custom blended tint instead of a flat opaque color.
- Care
- Alcohol- and acetone-based products, including common hairsprays and perfumes, can cloud the acetate and leave an irreversible white film.
- Surface restoration
- The acetate surface can be professionally repolished if scratched or dulled.
- Competitive pricing
- For $15, this 4-inch clip costs less than half the $35 Emi Jay clip recommended by Wirecutter.
- Durability
- Repolishable and colorfast; heat above 60°C warps the clip.
- Price value
- At $15 CAD, undercuts premium acetate clips like Emi Jay ($35) by over half.
- All-day comfort
- The clip's springy cellulose acetate and rounded teeth provide a comfortable all-day hold without brittleness or pulling.
- Color options
- The clip is offered in teal, red, and pink translucent finishes.
- Sustainability
- The cellulose acetate clip comes from renewable plant sources and can biodegrade under industrial composting, making it more sustainable than petroleum-based plastic clips.
- Cleaning method
- Dry-dusting with a microfiber cloth is better than frequent wet washing for preserving the clip's high-gloss finish; paper towels and tissues can micro-scratch the surface.
- Premium density
- Cellulose acetate's 1.27–1.34 g/cm³ density gives the clip a premium heft and helps it anchor more securely in thick hair.
- Lightweight feel
- The 4-inch acetate clip is lightweight enough for all-day wear, sitting comfortably without pulling on the scalp.
- Closure design
- The clip has an all-cellulose-acetate clasp with no metal spring mechanism.

Compared within this brand.
| Rounded-Teeth Translucent Clip: Choose this if you want a mid-size claw clip with a gentler hold: Simons describes its cellulose acetate build as flexible and durable with increased comfort, and it measures 4 inches (10.5 cm) long with curved, rounded-tipped teeth and a smooth oval top grip. It comes in one size across glossy translucent Teal, Red, and Pink finishes.[1,2] | Rounded-Tooth Clip: Choose this if you want a compact claw clip for everyday hair: it measures 2.75 inches (7 cm) long, comes in one size, and is made with cellulose acetate that Simons describes as flexible, durable, and providing increased comfort. Its broad arched top and wide, smoothly rounded teeth curve inward toward the center, and it is offered in Black, Off White, and Burgundy.[3,4,5] | Rounded-Tooth Large Clip: Choose this if you want a large claw clip in a classic solid or subtly patterned finish: it comes in Black, Patterned Ecru, and Chocolate/Espresso, each in one size. The cellulose acetate build is described by Simons as flexible and durable for increased comfort, and the clip is 4 inches (10 cm) long with wide, rounded interlocking teeth. It is a single-piece design with a broad curved top paddle, so it suits everyday updos rather than a hinged two-sided claw style.[6,7] |
