The African Butterfly Hair Clip is as easy to use as a rubber band.  You will absolutely fall in love with the comfort and beauty of this clip from the first moment you put it in your hair.

The patented bungee cord mechanism allows the clip to give, so you won’t suffer any more sticks or pricks from conventional clips when you lean your head back against your car’s headrest or living room recliner.  In fact, it’s so comfortable, you’ll even go to bed at night completely forgetting that the clip is in your hair.

From the thinnest of hair, to the thickest, longest, layered or curliest tresses, you can set your “do” once for the day and forget it.  The interlocking tines hold your hair in place through the most strenuous of activities, including your daily workout or horseback riding.  They are also well suited to individuals working in the food or medical professions; or any one who needs to keep their hair tied back while working.  We dare say there’s not a clip on the market that can compare. 

The African Butterfly Hair Clip will go everywhere you go:  special occasions, the office, school, errands, hanging out around the house, or simply washing your face or taking a shower.  These clips are so durable, and yet lightweight, they come with a one year guarantee against breakage.  If your clip breaks, just give us a call and we’ll trade you out a brand new one at no additional cost.  The clips’ sturdy components of wood, stone, bone or rock on a poly-plastic base allow you to simply toss one in your bag so you always have a way to get the hair up off your neck AND it stays put - all day.  Due to the clips’ magnificent artistry and ease of use, no one will ever guess you did such a nice “do” in a matter of seconds.

Each clip comes with an instruction sheet on how to use it, plus the different hair styles you can achieve.  Better yet, you can simply go to You Tube, do a search for S. African Butterfly Hair Clips, and view all the wonderful home videos women all over the world are posting to demonstrate the hair clip’s use and the stylish hair styles they are achieving with the clips.  You can simply follow right along with the videos as they are very methodically done as in this one:

These home videos prove that the African Butterfly Hair Clips are quickly becoming a worldwide “must have” for women and girls of all ages, because of their artistry, ease of use and comfort.

You will never see the African Butterfly Hair Clip advertised on T.V. or in any other media, as the Partnership has no advertising/marketing budget.  It is also not sold in stores, but only through individual vendors; so make sure you are getting the real thing as the clip is protected by multiple patents and licenses.  However, Oprah did feature this clip on her show in January, 2009 as, “One of My Favorite Things.”

Each clip is individually hand beaded, without a pattern by the widows and orphans of AIDS in the Gauteng Region of S. Africa.  The African Butterfly Company is currently able to employ approximately 120 family members who have lost their main breadwinner to AIDS.  For perhaps the first time in their lives, these family members are able to earn a living wage that would otherwise be impossible as they cope with severe poverty in a country lacking the benefits of education.  Each time you purchase an African Butterfly Hair Clip, you not only provide for these families daily needs, but truly get a unique, quality product in exchange.  Clips range in price from $20-$25 each.  We also carry the higher end, “Specialty Clips”, such as turquoise and Wonderstones from S. Africa’s diamond mines exclusively for the holidays at $30 each.

This web site is designed to bring what we believe is the world’s most comfortable hair clip to Houston and the surrounding areas.  You can simply order from our on-line store where we will post the latest designs and seasonal specials or come and visit us at one of our Houston area shows for the broadest selection.  Simply click on our Show Schedule in the navigator bar above to find the arts and crafts shows we are participating in.

S. African Hair Clips also make terrific gifts for special occasions such as graduations, birthdays and stocking stuffers for the holidays.  We know how rare it is to find a unique gift that will be used time and time again.  So keep us in mind when your need for a truly original gift rolls around and may God bless us everyone!
