To put your hair in a claw clip, follow these simple steps:
- Gather all your hair at the nape of your neck as if making a low ponytail.
- Using one hand, wrap your hair around your fingers (usually the index and middle fingers) to twist it upwards. Twist the hair tightly to form a rope-like shape.
- Fold or bend the twisted hair in half, lifting it up towards the crown or top of your head.
- Open your claw clip and secure it around the twisted hair, holding it firmly in place.
- If you have longer hair, tuck any loose ends under the twist before clipping.
- Optionally, pull out some strands around your face for a softer look or add bobby pins for extra hold.
This method works well for beginners and is suitable for medium to long hair. Using a metal or larger claw clip can help keep thicker hair secure
. There are also variations, such as half-up styles or low buns secured with a claw clip, which are quick and stylish options
. In summary, the key is to twist your hair tightly, fold it up, and clip it securely with the claw clip to keep your hair neatly held in place.
