About French Barrette Mechanisms

Table of Contents

Authentic French barrette mechanisms bear the Hallmark "Made in France" (see picture below) . These mechanisms are made of stronger, thicker materials and will not slip or fall apart. In addition, they are constructed as all one piece, and therefore have no loose clip components to "pop out".

French barrette mechanisms are designed to last and will function even in the thinnest or thickest of hair. Other types of barrette mechanisms are made of weaker materials that easily fall apart or the release malfunctions.

It is important to look for the "Made in France" Hallmark when purchasing a quality hair barrette.
