good clips [SEP] i bought these to use when for when i color my hair blow dry or need to clip up my hair when i curl it these clips will not hold a lot of hair so i twist my hair and have the clip hold the end this works out well as the clips grasp the hair tightly i am not concerned about the clips breaking they have held up even though i am not gentle on themmy hair does at times get caught in the teeth but slips out easilythese are great for use while styling or other needs like coloring but these are not for use once hair hair is styled they will not work as a claw clip to wear out thought i would put that in my review as some might thing that is the purpose of these clips they are holding hair up during procedures or while styling
