Miu Miu Logo Hair Clip

Q: What are the measurements and what hairstyles does it suit?
A: The clip measures approximately 3 cm high and 10 cm wide, making it a medium barrette. It works well for side-swept styles, securing a fringe, or a half‑up look. For very full updos on thick hair, you may need additional pins for support.

Q: Will it hold in thick or fine hair?
A: The spring barrette clasp offers medium hold. For thick hair, secure a smaller section or anchor with a thin elastic before clipping. For fine or silky hair, add texture with dry shampoo or texturising spray, lightly backcomb, or cross two hair pins where you plan to clip for extra grip.

Q: Is it heavy to wear?
A: No. The light yellow resin construction keeps the piece lightweight, while the silver‑tone logo adds a subtle accent. Most users find it comfortable for day‑long wear when used on appropriately sized sections of hair.

Q: How should I care for the resin and silver‑tone hardware?
A: Wipe after use with a soft, dry or slightly damp microfibre cloth. Avoid contact with hairspray, perfume, lotions and other chemicals, and keep away from prolonged heat or direct sunlight. Store in its box to protect the finish and reduce the risk of colour change over time.

Q: Can I wear it in wet hair, rain, or at the pool?
A: It’s best to avoid moisture. Water and humidity can dull resin and may lead to tarnish or corrosion of the metal spring. If it gets wet, remove and dry thoroughly at room temperature; do not use high heat.

Q: Is the hardware nickel‑free?
A: Material composition can vary by collection and production year. Many current Miu Miu clips use hypoallergenic, nickel‑free components, but vintage pieces may differ. If you are sensitive to metals, avoid prolonged skin contact and feel free to ask us for more details before purchasing.

Q: Which side can I wear it on?
A: The barrette can be worn on either side or centred. For the most secure hold, close it over hair that has been lightly pre‑gripped (with texture product or a crossed‑pin anchor).

Q: What is included in the product information?
A: This item comes with a box. Everything included is listed in the product information on this page; if something is not listed there, it is not included.

Q: What does Very Good condition mean for this piece?
