Hairstyles with a hair clip are hair arrangements that utilize a clip or barrette as an accessory or functional tool to hold or style hair. An example of such a style is the half-up, half-down look, which utilizes a clip to secure the upper portion of hair away from the face.
The use of hair clips for styling dates back to ancient times and is found across various cultures and civilizations. Beyond aesthetics, they serve practical functions such as keeping hair out of the eyes, preventing tangles, and providing a means of expressing personal style.
