Hairtoy collection: Rest

*EDITED from time to time to update my collection*

This general Hairtoy Collection part features elastics, scrunchies, bobby pins, spin pins, claw clips, parandas, hair donuts, alligator clips, barrettes, a buncage and small decorative hair stuff. Picture overload ahead!

1. Parandas, hair donuts, elastics, scrunchies, claw-clips and bobby pins.

From  left to right: A handmade paranda (Posts about parandas here), a hair donut (recently bought a larger one, not in the pic), examples of spin pins and metal-free elastics, and a couple of scrunchies.
 
From left to right: Metal-free elastics, spin pins, claw clips and some other plastic hair stuff, and bobby pins (both open and closed).

2020 update: More elastics, claw clips, open pins, donuts, and a grey paranda from a 2019 LHC Winter swap: 


Action shots:

-Braided bun with a paranda, secured with claw clips (I also use claw clips daily to secure many updos with a hairstick/fork base, such as the flipped bun):



 
-Lots of paranda pics in the paranda label


 

2. Hairbands and circlets

Practically the only hairband I own! I'm not a very headband person - Now, circlets are another thing :D!

                             

                               

-A PreciousPlunder (on Etsy) Celtic silver-and-amber crystals circlet




 
-An Elvish circlet from the Effeyl shop:

And another circlet from Etsy:

Both of them:

This leafy one I got from an LHC Winter swap:




3. Alligator clips


The purple one is the one that I use the most, especially for flipped and seashell buns. I also got these two as part of an LHC Winter swap:
 

All of them:


-Action shots: Large Ficcaré-style metal clip



 Half-up with a smaller clip.


 4. Barrettes
 

 
These large barrettes usually don't work for me in half-ups or as a ponytail holder because my hair is so fine-textured and slippery, but I can get them to work as accents in updos and braids:





5. A buncage
I hardly ever use it because it's rather cumbersome, but still: Pretty! :)



6. Decorative pins, small barrettes, etc.

Small decorative hair stuff such as clips, barrettes, pins and leaf ribbons.




-Action shots:
