Here's where the humble claw clip comes into play. No matter your curl pattern or texture, it's an instant accessory upgrade: You just wrap all your hair into a knot, secure it with a gold-plated or tortoiseshell acrylic clip, and you have a sleek updo that looks 10 times chicer than your twice-wrapped scrunchie.
If you're influenced to try the '90s trend that's made a full comeback pre-summer, shop the gallery, ahead.

Amazon Claw Clips
If you know yourself well enough to accept that you'll lose a clip in your car or at the bottom of your purse, then Amazon's popular three-for-one buy is a no-brainer.

Octopus Claw Clip
This circular-shaped clip has a modern feel, while still being lightweight and non-bulky. You'll almost forget you're wearing it — until someone compliments your cool updo.

"Bardot" Claw Clip
Jane Dottie Vintage is a Black-owned accessories label that describes itself as "a sustainable, small batch, slow fashion brand for the modern day renaissance woman." Everything from the organza scrunchies to the satin headbands are special — and affordable, too — but this blue teacup floral claw clip is one of our favorite pieces of all.

Italian Tortoise Hair Clip
One of J.Crew's best-selling accessories is this tortoiseshell claw clip. At $14, it's not the cheapest option out there, but reviewers give it five shining stars for its chic shape and throw-in-your-mini-bag durability.

Gold Half Moon Claw Clip
The next time you're at CVS, head to the hair-accessories aisle and grab this gold-plated clip by Glamsquad. It's a steal at $7 and has a tightly-coiled spring that keeps even the longest, thickest hair set in place.
