Abstract: A barrette for clipping hair comprises a first and a second arcuate elongate members pivoting on corresponding end portions thereof. The first member has at one end, a pair of laterally formed first hinge rings, the other end a roughly rectangular lock having an off-center receiving space with a pair of superposed catchs therein and three rows of the pyramid shaped projections on the inward periphery extending along longitudinal direction. The second member has at one end a single hinge ring, the other end a rectangular hasp and a two, oppositely formed "S" shapes which are connected at one end to form a closed elongate elastic plate extended downwards from the under side forming a multiple elastic region thereinbetween. This disclosure has been characterized in a stepped locking means and a multiple elastic region that provide selective engagement enabling the barrette serving for different hair bundles in varied styles.
