ZannClip to the rescue!

Hey pretty ladies –  

So who wants to hear about my new hair accessory obsession?
*hands waving*

OK. OK.  
Please allow me to introduce ZannClip, the world’s coolest and most versatile  little  hair clippy thingy.  
When it comes to styling my coarse dark locks, I am extremely low maintenance and tend to stick with simple styles…a bang, part down the middle, or side bang with part on the side. You see. Super simple.  

A ponytail or partial up-do has always been my go-to “lazy girl” hair style. When having a bad hair moment, a quick ponytail usually saves the day. But elastic bands cause damage over time. Whenever I remove elastic bands I always lose half a handful of hair. And how about the attractive dent that’s left behind when you remove the elastic band?…Sex-ay!

Well say bye bye to damaging elastic bands and hair loss.
ZannClip is  a great alternative to traditional elastic bands because they don’t cause breakage, give you a headache, or leave an unsightly hair crease when you take your hair down.  ZannClip is a coiled barrette that comes in a wide range of fashionable colors.

ZannClip comes in three sizes:
  • Small – 2 1/2″
  • Medium – 3 1/8″
  • Large – 3 3/4″
For my hair length and texture, I decided to go with the Large ZannClip. In the pics below I am wearing the large Metallic Grey clip to create several different styles. Each style took mere seconds to whip up!

I am wearing my hair in a half up do with the ZannClip.
(Yes, its time for a relaxer touch up…don’t let my edges distract you. Focus on ZannClip:))

Here’s the ZannClip up close from the back
(My pesky brown hair is creeping back in. Time for a black rinse soon.)




Here’s my hair in a bun with a ZannClip




For this bun I made the ZannClip invisible and hid it with my hair

Here’s my hair in a ponytail with the ZannClip. The clip is somewhat hidden by my hair.

ZannClip is not the “usual” drugstore hair clip. ZannClip will not break. EVER. The brand guarantees against chips or breakage. ZannClip is manufactured right here in the good ol US of A. The ZannClip mechanism is powder coated in the same manner as cars so the coating is extremely durable!

  • I almost always wear a ponytail to school, so I'd LOVE to have a ZannClip! Where can you buy these?

  • Synthetic wigs says:

    It is a great stuff….it is true that binding hair with hairband always makes the hair break…..but it is good to have the Zann Clip….it is so good and yet stylish to have and you can come up with different styles as well…..good to have….
