One of the most basic types of hair clips we've all used since school—bobby pins are great to hold your hair in place. Their ridges on one side help hold any hair style together including buns or waves. While they come in a basic black, you could also get them in a classic gold design with motifs, ideal for parties.

We love claw clips for their functionality. They're great for keeping hair off of your face during the work day, and depending on the size, can hold all your hair together in a neat bun. While they're great, we recommend using them sparingly since they can tug at your hair when used for long hours.
Banana Clips

Banana hair clips are great for mid-length hair if you'd like to leave your hair in a loose updo. They latch onto your hair from either side, and don't tug at as much as a claw clip. We'd recommend them for casual day dates.
Snap Clips
