Heavy, for long hair, thick hair, but not so much fine hair
These clips are large.  The are heavy and nice size.  But, I have about waist length hair but it is very, very fine....not much thickness unless I am pulling my hair up to keep it completely off my shoulders, back, etc.<br /><br />The clips, for example, do not hold back the hair that I pull back from the forehead and hold it back.  Well, they will, briefly.  The shear heft of the clip will begin sliding down my hair and be ineffective.<br /><br />There isn't a rubber gripe on any of the "forks" that stick in the hair.<br /><br />Now, If I make a pony, pull all the  hair up, twist it and use these to clamp down my hair, the clip will stay in place and hold.  But, they definitely are not meant to hold small amount of hair back and provide a nice decorative look.<br /><br />As mentioned, these are very,, very heavy clips.  The weight is nice, but gets trying on the head after a while using them to hold up my hair.
