Review (5/5): Impressive.
Back when dinosaurs roamed the earth, I would get a new pack of Goody barrettes each September. They lasted the whole school year. I'm just guessing but I think they were made in the USA and probably are not anymore.
Its been years since my coarse, thick hair has been long enough for barrettes. I bought Goody for old time sake. The finish chipped off within days. They didn't hold my hair. I was sad.
These are lovely. I haven't had them very long but the finish has stayed very nice so far. They look and feel more like jewelry than a hair clip. I like the hinged bar....its easy for me to manipulate. They hold my hair and stay put. I will likely get more.
