Product Insights
The Varied Metallic Barrettes Set Of 6 by Simons is a $12 CAD in-stock entry-level hair accessory set: six polished silver-tone metal clips with no stones or enamel, house-designed by Simons—Canada's oldest family-owned business since 1840, making its own fashion labels since the 1960s—and positioned under its Can$35–$70 Fabrique 1840 silk hair line. The set's core promise is plain-metal styling versatility across three clip shapes: two straight bars to hold a section, two hairpins to finish a look, and two snap clips to gather an updo, each about 7 cm and roughly $2 CAD per barrette, intended as a replaceable rotation rather than an heirloom. The main tradeoff is size and material: 7 cm clips anchor half-up sections or low ponytails but not a full chignon, and polished silver-tone metal is not solid silver, so on fine or silky hair the smooth jaw and wire hairpins can let sections slip, while serrated clips hold better. Durability and handling caveats follow from the finish and edges: plating thins or wears through at friction points within months to a couple of years, snagging comes from burred edges and cut wire ends rather than the clasp, so buyers should check every jaw and tooth on arrival, open the clip fully and slide it out, detangle first, loosen at the base for removal, and never drag teeth through hair or close a jaw on a knot. The minimalist bare-metal finish suits clean everyday looks, but the value case rests on low per-clip cost and rotation, not long-term materials.
Verified claims
- Material
- Polished silver-tone metal, not solid silver, with no stones or enamel
- Styling roles
- Three clip shapes cover section-holding, finishing a look and updos in plain metal.
- Design variety
- Six pieces split into two straight serrated clips, two slim open-loop hairpins, and two tapered snap clips with serrated inner teeth.
- Size band
- At 7 cm the clips cover half-up styles and low ponytails, not full updos
- Grip
- On fine or silky hair the smooth polished metal jaw can let a section slip.
- Edge finish
- Snagging comes from the clip's edges, not its clasp, so the serrated teeth and cut wire ends are what to check
- Service life
- At roughly $2 a clip, expect plating to thin or wear through in months to a couple of years.
- Brand heritage
- Simons house design — the retailer has made its own fashion labels since the 1960s
- Styling look
- Silver-tone polished metal with no stones or enamel, in a deliberately mixed set of silhouettes.
- Value positioning
- A $12 entry-level in-stock set of six beside Simons' own Can$35–$70 silk hair accessories.
- Minimalist finish
- Silver-tone polished bare metal with no stones or enamel, for a clean-lined everyday minimalist look.
- Hold
- Serrated gripping edges on the straight and snap clips hold hair firmly, while the smooth wire hairpins slip on fine or silky hair.
- Handling
- Open the clip fully and slide it out, and detangle before the jaw closes on a knot.
- Per-barrette cost
- About $2 CAD per barrette — a replaceable rotation whose plating wears through in months to years.
- Finish wear
- Wear is plating loss, not tarnish, thinning at friction points within months to a couple of years
- Length
- All six barrettes are the same 2.75 inches (7 cm); they span a half-up section or low ponytail, short of a full chignon.
- Brand lineage
- House-designed by Simons, Canada's oldest family-owned business since 1840
- Removal
- Loosen the clip at the base and slide it out, never dragging the teeth through hair.
- Tangle prevention
- Only clip detangled hair — a metal jaw leaves a hidden knot tighter at removal.
- Brand tiering
- Simons' Fabrique 1840 silk hair line starts at Can$35, about six times this set
- Rotation
- A rotating six-piece set meant to be replaced, not kept as an heirloom
- Construction
- The barrettes are metal throughout with no plastic frame or clip parts, so they are a more durable pick than plastic-backed barrettes.
- Cleaning
- Wipe clean with a dry, soft cloth; avoid soaking and skip abrasive polishes or harsh cleaners to protect the metallic finish.

Compared within this brand.
| Varied Metallic Barrettes Set Of 6: Choose this if you want an assortment of metal hair clips in one purchase: the set includes six pieces in three styles—two narrow straight serrated bar clips, two slim open-loop hairpins, and two larger tapered snap clips with serrated inner gripping teeth. Each measures about 2.75 inches (7 cm) long, comes in one size, and the pieces show a shiny warm metallic finish; note the merchant lists the colour as Gold while the page text describes silver metal, so the exact tone may be worth confirming.[1,2] | Marbled Barrettes Set Of 6: Choose this if you want a variety pack for everyday elegant styling: a set of 6 slim barrettes about 2.25 inches (5.5 cm) long in three finishes—two tortoiseshell amber, two beige/cream marbled, and two solid black—each with a glossy top strip and gold-toned metal underside. They are made with cellulose acetate, which the brand describes as flexible, durable, and comfortable to wear.[3,4] | Diamond Metallic Barrettes Set Of 2: Choose this if you want a decorative accent more than a workhorse clip: the set of 2 shiny metal barrettes (each 2.75 inches, or 7 cm, long) has an eye-catching openwork double-diamond design whose sparkle is praised even by reviewers who were otherwise dissatisfied. A reviewer with fine hair reports the grip holds securely without slipping for all-day wear, but multiple reviews note the stiff hinge is hard to open and close and can snag or break hair, so the analysis suggests they suit fine hair best and may be frustrating for daily manipulation on average to thick hair.[5,6] |
