Metal Teeth Hairclips

Metal Hair Clips, Handmade in France

Our metal hair clips combine the strength of metal teeth with the beauty of French cellulose acetate. Unlike ordinary plastic clips that snap or lose their grip, metal-teeth clips hold firmly all day, even in thick, heavy or slippery hair, while staying gentle on your strands. Handmade in France in our family atelier on the French Riviera since 1980, each clip is both a reliable tool and a decorative piece. Below, find the right metal clip for your hair and your style.

Metal hair clips for thick hair

Thick, curly or slippery hair finally gets a clip strong enough to hold a full section. The metal teeth bite just enough to keep your style in place without pulling. See accessories selected for thick hair.

Metal clips vs plastic: why metal lasts

Thin plastic clips bend, snap and lose their grip. Metal teeth keep their shape and their bite for years. Paired with hypoallergenic cellulose acetate, our clips are a real, lasting alternative to disposable plastic.

Decorative & animal designs

Beyond function, each metal clip is a fashion accessory in dozens of handmade shades and finishes, including playful animal clips. Browse the full hair clip collection.

Choosing your size

Metal clips come in several sizes, from small everyday clips to large statement pieces for thick hair. See our size guide to choose yours.

FAQ

How do you use a metal hair clip?

Gather the section of hair you want to hold, open the clip and close it so the metal teeth grip close to the root. The teeth keep the clip from sliding, so it holds all day.

Are metal hair clips better than plastic ones?

Yes. Metal teeth grip more securely and don’t snap or bend like thin plastic. Combined with cellulose acetate, they last far longer than disposable clips.

Do metal claw clips damage hair?

No. The smooth acetate body and evenly spaced teeth distribute pressure gently, holding your hair without tearing.

Which metal clip is best for thick hair?

Choose a larger size or a full metal claw clip; it will hold a thick or long section securely all day. See the size guide to pick the right one.

Are MC Davidian metal clips really made in France?

Yes. Every clip is handmade in our French atelier from French cellulose acetate and hardware, following 45 years of savoir-faire.
