how to prevent hair clips from slipping

I often use hair clips to keep a small section of my hair from continually slipping in front of my eyes. Or to keep in place the more elaborate hairdos I sometimes wear on special occasions.

Problem is,some hair clips don’t grip hair as tightly as they should. They stubbornly insist on slipping down, ruining your hairstyle and annoying the hell out of you.

Luckily, there’s a solution.

Give the hair clip a shot of hairspray. Once it becomes a bit tacky (it usually takes about a minute), put it in your hair.

Or, you can use hairspray on the section of hair where you plan to put the hair clip. I’m not a fan of this because I always tend to spray too much product. But that’s just me.

Of course, you can use the same trick to keep any other kind of hair accessory in place.
