5 Best Embellished Hair Clips for Festive Updos Under ₹700
A festive updo takes all of ten minutes, and then it just sits there looking unfinished. The outfit is heavy, the jewellery is already on, and the hair has nothing going on. One embellished clip closes that gap, and it goes in without a mirror. It works on a puja morning, at a sangeet and on a card party night too. But the size does matter, for a small clip disappears in thick hair.

5 Best Embellished Hair Clips for Festive Updos

A good clip is easier than pins and a whole can of spray. Some come as an alligator clip, some as a claw, while others trail down as a hair vine. Also, the grip matters a lot. If the hinge is weak, a heavy bun will slide out within the hour. Also, check the length, because 11 cm holds far more hair than 7 cm does. So here are the 5 best embellished hair clips that you can buy on Myntra.

Rubans makes this one in gold-toned alloy with embellishment across it. The clip measures 11 cm long and 6 cm across, a proper festive size. It is an alligator clip, so it opens wide and bites down. Care is simple, as the brand only asks for a wipe with a dry cloth.
Key Features:
Why Buy:
The width is the main thing to notice if your hair is thick and clips keep sliding off. An alligator hinge also holds a French twist better than a claw does. Gold-toned sits equally with Kundan and pearls.

Yellow Chimes builds the product as a hair vine rather than a single clip. A leaf design runs through it in white and gold-toned metal. It measures 12 cm by 15 cm, so it covers a fair stretch of hair. The occasion to wear this piece is a Western outfit day. A dry cloth is all the care it needs.
Key Features:
Why Buy:
Go for this one when a single clip looks too small against a bun. A vine also spreads across the back of the head instead of sitting in one spot. White and gold work with a pastel outfit as well as a bright one. Keep it for the evenings rather than the daytime.
Price: ₹464 | Customer Ratings: 4.4/5
OOMPH cuts this one into a rose shape in gold-toned metal. It runs 11 cm long and 3.7 cm across, so the claw is large. The brand asks you to keep it away from sweat, water and perfume. It stores best in a separate box so it does not tangle. Embellishment runs across the rose.
Key Features:
Why Buy:
Anyone who twists hair up in five seconds will reach for a claw over an alligator clip. A rose shape also reads as jewellery rather than as a hair tool. Eleven centimetres is enough to hold a thick twist. Keep it out of perfume if you want the plating to last.
Price: ₹381 | Customer Ratings: 4.6/5
PANASH shapes this one into a bow in gold-toned and white metal. The clip is 7 cm long, so it sits smaller and neater than the others. It uses an alligator hinge. A cotton swab is what the brand suggests for cleaning.
Key Features:
Why Buy:
You should look at the smaller size if you want the clip to sit beside a bun, not over it. A bow also suits a younger look, whereas a heavy claw would feel formal. Nothing else here comes in a bow shape. Two of them work on either side of a half-up.
Price: ₹238 | Customer Ratings: 4.6/5
DIVASTRI keeps this one gold-toned with embellishment on the body. The occasion to wear this hair clip is on an ethnic day, which is precisely the point here. It is an alligator clip in metal. The pack holds one piece, and a dry cloth takes the dust off.
Key Features:
Why Buy:
An ethnic shape makes sense when the clip has to sit under a dupatta all evening. Metal also holds its shape better than a resin clip through a crowd. It is plain enough that two of them in the bag makes sense.
The clip, not the hairspray, finishes a festive updo, and these five suit different hair. For thick hair, Rubans runs 11 cm wide, while OOMPH shapes a large claw into a rose. If the bun needs covering, Yellow Chimes spreads a leaf vine across the back. PANASH keeps a small bow for a neater look, and DIVASTRI goes plain ethnic gold. Between them, the hairspray is the only thing left to add. So, match the size to how much hair you are pinning, and buy these products on Myntra today!
