Thank you for your interest in my item. Before you purchase, please take a moment to read my profile. This is a black and white striped barrette clip. I previously purchased it from a hair accessory shop on this site. I was drawn to the color and design, as I often have to put my hair up for work. However, I realized that I need a clip that is 12cm long to hold all of my hair, so I am selling this one. It has only been tried on, and I have disinfected it with alcohol before listing it. This clip is approximately 10.8cm wide, but depending on the length of your hair, it may be possible to fully put your hair up. Recommended for those who like Alexandre de Paris, acca, Complex Biz, etc. I am also selling other large barrette clips. I welcome combined purchases. Shipping will be via Takkyubin Compact.
