MUST-SEE
CLIPS
First there was the hairpin,
popular among Egyptians and
designed with symbolic motifs,
revived in the early 2000s
with hairstylist Odile Gilbert’s
line of U-shaped clips. Then the
scrunchie made a comeback,
with an impressive 2019 Oscars
outing on Jason Momoa.
Now the barrette’s time has
come (again), but with a crucial
update: One is no longer
enough. Roughly 7 to 50 will do,
stacked, like rungs on a ladder,
along your hairline (like blogger
Brittany Xavier’s, above) or
clipped throughout a cascade
of loose hair. Either way,
we’ll say this: It bodes well for
tiaras in 2020. —BRENNAN KILBANE
