Evolved from the u-shaped double-pronged hair pin that has been in use for centuries, hair slides and hair grips have distinctive close-together sides that, as their name suggests, slide into the hair to keep it in place. Grips and slides, unlike clips, have no fastener or closing mechanism and due to their very design, work well in all hair lengths and hair types.
Grips are usually coloured to match natural hair tones and are designed to give discrete grip and hold to hair styles. Typically functional rather than fashionable, grips, unlike slides, usually have wavy sides to give extra hold. In comparison, hair slides are primarily decorative in nature; usually having a piece of hair jewellery such as crystals, butterflies, dragonflies or flowers attached.
Whether you're looking for plain bobby pins to hold a complicated style or a funky hair slide for your too-cool crop, or even a sparkling crystal hair slide for your long Rapunzel locks, we hope you find what you're looking for amongst our vast range of own-brand, and branded grips and slides.
Do hair slides slip and slide easily from your hair, especially when freshly washed? For extra grip and hold, try back-combing your hair before positioning your hair slides. For fine hair, look out for hair grips with No Slip Grip® and Non Slide® technology.
