Product Insights
The Small Openwork Clip from Simons revives a 1940s barrette silhouette with an openwork pattern, clamp-style hinge, and 6 cm length, designed for fine to medium hair. Its lightweight plastic body and spring hinge enable versatile styling—half-up, low bun, side sweep, or stacked for two-tone effects—while offering light hold that does not grip wet hair securely. The tradeoff is that its gentle retention, ideal for all-day comfort without dragging fine hair, may not suit thicker strands or humid conditions.
Verified claims
- Vintage design
- Openwork pattern and 6 cm length evoke a 1940s barrette silhouette, giving the clip a vintage and retro look rather than a modern-clip feel.
- Styling
- Supports small-section styling—face-framing pieces, bangs, and side sections—plus half-up accents, low-bun details, side-sweep anchors, and stacked two-tone placements; the 6 cm size is not meant for a full half-up style.
- Hair type
- At 6 cm, this clip is best suited for fine to medium hair.
- Grip
- Offers light hold; does not grip wet hair securely.
- Stacking
- Lightweight body allows stacking multiple clips for two-tone or openwork effects.
- Mechanism
- The clip uses a simple clamp-style closure rather than a spring-loaded jaw or claw, and it has no metal parts; the compact all-plastic profile suits sectioning fine to medium hair.
- Weight
- Lightweight plastic body doesn't drag down fine hair, so the clip stays comfortable when stacked or placed in half-up styles.
- Materials
- Primarily 100% plastic with a small metal hinge pin.
- All-day comfort
- The 6 cm openwork plastic clip stays comfortable in half-up, side-swept, and stacked styles.
- Thick hair suitability
- Thick or very long hair may not be securely held by this 6 cm clip.
- Color consistency
- Because the clip is injection-molded plastic rather than cellulose acetate, the Ivory/Cream Beige tone is a consistent, repeatable color across units rather than a one-of-a-kind marbled pattern.

Compared within this brand.
| Small Openwork Clip: Choose this if you want a small claw-style clip (2.25 inches, one size) with an openwork rectangular cutout design and rounded-corner frame, offered in Ivory/Cream Beige or Brown. It is 100% plastic with curved inner teeth and a top hinge with a gold-toned metal pin, and this Simons exclusive—designed in Canada—is described by the merchant as adding a charming retro touch.[1,2] | Patterned Large-Tooth Openwork Clip: Choose this if you want a large 4 inch (10.5 cm) acetate hair clip with a glossy oval openwork design, a tortoiseshell-style pattern of amber and dark brown patches, and wide teeth meant to grip hair. It comes in a one-size Hazelnut variant, and the cellulose acetate build is described by Simons as flexible, durable, and comfortable to wear. Note the gripping function reflects the design intent rather than a reported use experience.[3,4] | Neutral Large-Tooth Openwork Clip: Choose this if you want a lightweight plastic claw clip, about 3 inches (8 cm) long, whose large teeth are described as gripping hair securely, with an openwork cutout design offered in Black or Chocolate/Espresso in one size. Note that reviewers with very thick hair report it may be too small for a full updo, working best for a half-up style.[5,6,7] |
