For most of us, wash day can turn into… an all day affair, depending on what we decide to do to our hair. No matter how long it takes, at the end we all want our hair to be clean, conditioned, moisturized and tangle free.

I was originally attracted to these hair clips because of their color. Once I started using them almost 2 years ago, they’ve been a staple in my wash day regimen.

I like to use the hair clips to stretch my roots when I twist on wet hair. For even more stretch, I apply one clip to the roots and the ends of each twist on my head.
