Lilla Rose Flexi Hair Clip (Giveaway)

Nope, not a book review but another situation where a company contacted me and their product caught my attention. They offered to send a sample of their product my direction in exchange for a review and also offered up a giveaway to one of my readers. I had heard of them before and was interested to check their stuff out so I had to say yes, of course.

(I have this giveaway and one more to run before Christmas so let's get the ball rolling.)

Today let's take a quick peek at Lilla Rose Flexi Grips. A rep for Lilla Rose contacted me and I was excited to hear from her because I knew that my daughter - who likes doing her hair "like a princess" - would love a chance to sport one of these beautiful Flexi Hair Clips. The selling point for me was that they advertise that they will hold up hair of all lengths, textures and thickness. My daughter is just three years old and while I anticipate her having a very thick head of hair at some point, it is still fairly thin and silky. It's forever falling out of clips and if the Flexi Hair Clip worked as well as advertised, I thought this would be a mighty fine solution.

A little bit about the Flexi Hair Clips:

This hair clip might look similar to ones that you see at your local store, but it is definitely not the same. Each Flexi Hair Clip has a patented sliding pin which allows you to more easily maneuver your hair and gives the clip a firm grip on the hair once you have slid the pin into place.

In doing my daughter's hair I found that it was easy to hold onto the pin while styling her hair. I used the clip to put her hair up in a ponytail and also into a partial updo and it worked great for both. (You'll have to forgive me if I do not know the technical names for hairstyles. Still learning!)

I was invited to choose the size Flexi Clip I wanted. It is highly encouraged (and strongly recommended) that you watch the following sizing video to determine which one would best work with your hair type.

Here is the link to the website offering more details as to sizing. The video above not only informs you of the best size Flexi Hair Clip for your hair but also offers some ideas of how to use the clip to its best advantage. I selected the "mini" size for my daughter and it worked exactly as advertised. They have many beautiful styles to choose from and I had fun browsing their website to select one. In the end, I chose this one for my little dancing girl:

She loved it! And she has enjoyed wearing it. I love their prices and can see myself purchasing more styles in the future as *I* become more accomplished at "doing hair." Lilla Rose has expanded their line of products beyond the Flexi Hair Clip to include:

• Hair Bands
• Bobby Pins
• Hair Sticks

Personally I think they are beautiful, sturdy and practical. I've given up buying clips at stores because none of them ever work quite right. But this Flexi Hair Clip seemed to do the job correctly and so I'd rather buy a few of these than a handful of others than don't work! So let's get to the good part, shall we?
