Octopus Hair Clips
Wednesday, January 7th, 2009I remember when the Octopus generation of hair clips were first introduced several years ago.
At the time they had a completely new shape compared to the traditional jaw, claw and related salon style hair clips.
Although some consumer hair wearers think a hair clip is a hair clip is a hair clip, it’s not exactly the case. There are many different shapes that perform differently in the hair.
As the popularity of the uniquely designed Octopus hair clip took hold, it morphed into slightly different designs, colors and sizes as hair consumers clamored for more options.
Octopus hair clips were named because they do have a similar shape to a real octopus. Of course a real octopus doesn’t usually have a spring mounted at the top of their head like the hair clip variety. Ironically many types of hair clips are named after animals they favor such as Alligator Clips, Crocodile Clips, Spider Clips to name just a few.
