you get what you pay for [SEP] these clips are rather large but they only have one narrow set of pretty flimsy teeth i use clips like these primarily to keep my hair out of my face when putting on and taking off my makeup and also to section my hair when i flatiron it forget it i have a lot of hair that is also very thick and these barely hold it at all i have to use them to at a time to hold a single section of hair and even then at least one always slides right out of my haira waste of money i will be buying better ones from the beauty supply store as soon as i can get there
