..of hair. Ok this is a bizarre one but I am at my wits end. I have v. thick hair, every hairdresser comments on it as if I would not have realised already. I had a beloved big hairclip or big clit as it was affectionately known but left it behind in the hospital during a stressful getting my catheter out moment 10 days after dd was born. Where can I get a really big hairclip?

did you really call it a big clit?

I know what you are after, I could do with one too, you just have to look hard. John Lewis may do then but they won't be very fancy across the bar.

abroad. if you have friends going on holiday ask them to buy some for you. i know exactly what you mean but have never seen them around here. what colour do you want or style?

Hi, yes I did call it a big clit. It seemed very funny at the time. I would continually ask dp where my big clit was, I am sure we got some funny looks.

Colour wise - I used to have a gorgous blue one but I suppose black is the safe option. Have tried JL as that is where the 'Big Clit' came from (See I am laughing as I write this, I am warped and an unfit mother) but no luck. Will try friends in Spain. Thanks.

Hi pesme, I found some hairclips specifically for thick hair in Claire's Accessories. I thought I had thick hair but they slid out of mine. They aren't the best quality but they aren't too expensive either. Hope you find one.

independant chemists have lots. I found one called Grip It also tesco had some for thick hair. Have you tried going into an afro hair shop?
