Clip Care
Taking care of your new claw clip
All of our claw clips are made from cellulose acetate, an eco-friendly alternative to traditional plastic, made from wood pulp and cotton fibres. Our accessories are highly durable but need some extra care, including protection from high heat. Each one may show slight variations in colour and tooth placement due to the handmade nature of every piece.
Follow the care instructions below to extend the life of your clip.
Heat
Avoid prolonged exposure to high heat, as this may cause the prongs to stretch and result in a looser grip.
Water
Cellulose acetate itself is waterproof. However, the metal spring inside the clip can rust if left in a moist environment for extended periods. Avoid exposing the spring to water for longer than 30 minutes at a time.
Stretch reset
If the prongs begin to loosen due to heat, soak the clip in warm water (no hotter than 110°F) for 5 to 10 minutes. After soaking, let the clip cool and rest for 30 minutes before use.
