Is This Popular 80s Hair Accessory Making a Comeback?
Do you remember the banana clip from the 80's?
Before the popular claw clip and the butterfly clips from the 90s' there was the beloved banana clip. A banana clip is a concave U-shaped accessory with two plastic sides that come together in the middle with stretchy teeth that hold the hair in place. To use a banana clip for a ponytail, you merely unhinge one end of the clip, the whole thing takes about thirty seconds.
Well the banana clip is making it's comeback so I thought it would be great to do a tutorial.

The ones that hook together at the ends instead of snap are much better for thick/curly hair. They hold better and don’t come apart. I still have some from the 80’s/90’s. 😳
I just looked and there are a lot of different types all over Amazon. I think I will order some new ones!!
I used to wear this clip. Loved it.
