To clip hair back with a barrette, position the barrette towards the area you want to secure, push the barrette's mechanism through the hair, and clip it shut on the other side.
This simple action can be broken down into a few steps for clarity:
-
Gather the Hair: Decide which section of hair you want to clip back. This could be the hair framing your face, a small section from the side, or even a larger portion for a half-up hairstyle.
-
Position the Barrette: Hold the barrette open and position it on the top of the section of hair you've gathered. The part of the barrette with the stick should be on top.
-
Insert the Mechanism: Push the stick part of the barrette through the hair and guide it to the other side.
-
Secure the Clip: Once the stick is all the way through, clip it shut to secure the hair in place. Make sure all the hair is held securely.
-
Adjust (if needed): If the barrette isn't holding all the hair, or if it feels loose, remove it and try again, gathering a slightly different section or adjusting the barrette's position.
