This summer, there’s one accessory we can’t do without: hair clips. They’re not only practical but also stylish and right on trend—as demonstrated by STYLEBOOK editor Katharina Regenthal’s visit to Copenhagen.
Long hair can be quite annoying in the summer when it sticks to your neck. The Scandi girls show us how to stylishly pin up our hair this year. Instead of boring hair ties, they’re opting for a much cooler option: hair clips! It seemed like every other woman in Copenhagen was wearing a striking hair clip—and the stores were full of colorful and glittery versions, perfect for summer.
Overview
Hair Clips Not for Every Hair Type
Hair clips come in many different varieties—not just visually, but also in size and shape. This means not all clips are suitable for every hair type. Those with fine hair often face the problem of large clips slipping out. It’s better to opt for narrower models.
Women with thick hair have a wider selection. They can use both large and small clips, though the latter are usually not for the whole head of hair, but rather for a half-up hairstyle.

Flower Clips
Flower clips are particularly trendy this year. They resemble exotic blooms from distant lands. Available in many variations—from leopard print to mother-of-pearl to classic floral designs—these clips instantly give any outfit a beach vibe in the summer.
Metallic Look
If flowers are a bit too floral and playful for you, you’ll surely find metallic-look hair clips appealing. The clean look pairs well with business outfits, being both practical and stylish.
Wavy Clip
Wavy clips are a real eye-catcher in our hair! The clip looks like a thick, curved brushstroke and sits perfectly on the hair. There’s also a wide range of colors—those who prefer subtlety can choose a tortoiseshell look, while bold colors are the right choice if you want to stand out.
Pastel Colors
Pastel colors are and remain trendy—even for hair clips. The soft tones match many hair colors and don’t stand out too much, yet they are still a small highlight in the hair.
Colors, Patterns, and Glitter
Hair clips do have a function, namely to hold hair beautifully, but it would be a shame to choose a shade that matches your own hair color. Bold variants with patterns and glitter are more in vogue.
