If I’m overheating and sweating and my hair sticks to my neck, I’m gonna lose iiiiitt.

I am a contributor and former BuzzFeed Shopping writer based in Cincinnati, OH where you can find me curating lists on ~a little bit of everything~ (and adding a few things to my own cart in the process).

This comes with four different size options and 20 hairpins.

Promising review: "This hair donut is great! It’s soft yet firm enough to help create a perfect bun quickly and easily. The material is gentle on my hair and doesn’t pull or tangle. It works well with different hair types and lengths, and the donut shape makes styling so simple — even on busy mornings. I love how neat and polished my bun looks every time. Overall, a handy and affordable hair accessory that I would definitely recommend!" —Naomie Filosca

Get it from Amazon for $7.99+ (available in seven color options).

Promising review: "How fun are these! I had to write a review because I am enjoying my claw clips. Great quality, easy order, and fast delivery. When I saw these, I just couldn’t pass them up. I know I will be ordering more clips. I don’t like writing reviews, but I am enjoying my items so much, and I thought others would like a REAL review." —Barbara B.

Get it from Rifle Paper Co. for $22 (available in two designs).

Promising review: "The perfect hat for ponytails! This reimagined version is a dream – super lightweight and keeps my ponytail in place. I hope they keep making these!" —anonymous

Get it from Lululemon for $38 (available in four colors).

Promising review: "They're worth every dollar! It's not quite like any other hair tie I've seen before. It's really thick, very expandable, and super durable. I have thick, coarse, nappy, natural, African American hair and these certainly do the job! I don't care what type of hair you have or how much of it you got because these will do the job. And they won't rip out your hair while doing it." —Gracie

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $8.23+ (available in eight colors and an eight-pack).

Get them from H&M for $5.99 (originally $14.99).

Promising review: "Beautiful head wrap! Excellent quality, matched the description perfectly... surpassed my expectations. I will be ordering again." —Priscilla

Get it from Nubian Grace on Etsy for $26+ (also available as a set with earrings).

Promising review: "I was skeptical about this Cabana banana clip because I have very thick hair, but it actually works! All you have to do is open up the clip, put your hair through it, and close the clip, and that's it! I thought it was going to be something complicated where all my hair was going to fall out or not all my hair could be clipped in, but this was not the problem. It works great, it stays fitted in the clip, and I love how it doesn't crease my hair! Bonus that the product comes with two clips for such an awesome price!" —MJ

Get it from Lulus for $15.20 (originally $19).

Get them from Nordstrom for $10 (available in four colors).

Get a pack of five from Lane Bryant for $9.98 (originally $24.95).

Promising review: "I have very fine hair, which is starting to thin, and this holds my hair perfectly with minimal slippage and saves me from having to use some other kind of band where I’d have to put it around at least three times. Very easy to use and adaptable, whether I want to do a ponytail or a bun. Just ordered my second set, one of the best things I’ve discovered on Amazon." —Marion

Get a three-pack from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in five color combinations and two other quantities).

Get it from Loft $11.45 (originally $26.95).

Promising reviews: "It comes in handy on lazy days when you just want your hair off your neck." —Proudgeri

"You can put these in, and they’ll hang around all day long. I have thick, long hair and ride a motorcycle daily, so these get used all the time. One will last a day, taking it in and out, no problem. You won’t break one unless you are trying with force. They stay in place well. I don’t feel like they break any more hair than any other style I’ve used. For $9, you’ll feel hair-rich. Treat yoself! You’re worth it." —JC

Get them from Amazon for $8.99 (available in three color options).

Promising reviews: "Love these clips! They last forever and are great quality." —anonymous

Promising review: "I love these clips so much! They are adorable and don't break easily. The supplier is so nice, too; they left a little note on my order. Would highly recommend if you want to feel more like a fairy on a day-to-day basis." —Elise Jorgensen

Get a six-pack from Amazon for $15.63 (available in seven other pack sizes with different colors and styles).

Promising review: "It's been so hot that I wanted a clip that would hold all my hair. These do that. They have a really firm grip, but don't pull my scalp. They hold all my hair for hours while I clean my house, and they don't let it go. I also get compliments on how nice my hair looks. HIGHLY RECOMMEND. NOTE: These are huge." —Rheba

Get a four-pack from Amazon for $7.58+ (available in seven colors/styles and 12-packs of minis).

Promising review: "Really silky, smooth, beautiful colors. I got the pink set, have worn them in my hair and wrapped them on my purse strap." —MoniqueR81405

Get them from Anthropologie for $38 (available in eight combinations).

Promising review: "I have been using this packet of hair ties for 2.5 years now! I have thick hair and so I wear one of these on my wrist all the time so I am always ready to put my hair up. In the time since I purchased this pack I have only used two hair ties! They last forever! They start out tight around my wrist, but over the course of a couple of weeks they loosen up. They will hold my hair tight all day long. I started out using Telaties and I love that product, but it was a little bit expensive. I decided to give these a try. They are a little bit fatter than Telaties, but it’s not that much different. I like the colors because they match my hair. The picture shows a new one in the package versus one I’ve had on my wrist for several months." —Urban Pepper

Get them from FP Movement for $21 (available in two color combinations).

Promising review: "I'm a nursing student and have to wear my hair in a bun every day. I've tried all the bun makers, watched YouTube videos, and spend way too much time on getting my hair into a bun. I was able to make a pretty bun that was secure in under 30 seconds. I thought it was a fluke so I did it again, and then again. I just ordered two more packs because I know if I lose one of these, I'd have to tear the house down looking for it. I have hair to my mid back, and three of these worked perfectly for me. If I can get my hair in bun in under 30 seconds, trust me...anyone can." —Tina

Get a pack of three from Amazon for $7+ (available in two colors).

Get it from Hill House Home for $16. And check out the rest of the collab. 

Promising review: "Love this! My hair usually gets frizzy easily, and I always have little flyaways on top of my head, but this little Angelstick is a lifesaver! It’s so convenient to carry it with me in the purse and re-touch during the night." —berrycake1

Promising reviews: "These metal clips hold like no other. The clips are inexpensive and do not slip out while on the go. The metal clips are well-made, and the size is perfect to hold any hairstyle. I have thinning curly hair, and the clips hold my hairstyle until I take them off. I chose the black ones, and they are perfect for me. Highly recommend." —Lizzie

"I was having a difficult time finding combs that didn't slide out of my hair. The wavy design of the prongs makes a big difference. In the photo [left], the only accessory I'm using is the comb and a little hairspray. If these combs can stay in my fine hair all day long, they will stay in just about anyone's hair. I recommend watching some videos to get the twisted hairstyle technique. Don't give up. I practiced for two hours before getting the hang of it. The combs are metal, strong, and a great value for the price. They are also lightweight and don't hurt my head. They are great for dress or casual wear. Buy them! You won't regret it!" —Tootsie O'Toole

Get them from Amazon for $7.99 (available in four color combinations and different versions).

Promising review: "Where have these been all my life??? I have to admit, I saw them on TikTok. I LOVE THEM!!!! I have very thick hair, and these hold my hair. I love that I can wear them in the car and not have to worry about the clip preventing my head from the headrest. The colors are great, and they are comfortable — I even slept with one when I forgot to take it out. The size is good, and there is no hair pull. I will be buying more and also gifting them. They are great! They hold my hair with a good grip." —Tracey L .
