Beaut.ie How To: Stop Hairclips From Slipping

Sometimes, no matter how fresh outta the pack or tightly crimped hairclips are, they insist on slipping down through your locks. Which is a nightmare for updos - not to mention full-on helmet hair! - and wicked annoying too for anyone just trying to keep a few wayward strands out of their eyes.

Freshly-washed gruaig is often a key offender, but rather than fill it full of Batiste or wait for a bit of grease to build up, try this easy tip that will help hairclips stay put without taking the lovely lustre off your hair. Give them a shot of hairspray, wait a minute for it to get slightly tacky, and bung them in.

Et voilá - clips that won't slip!
