Information on Barrettes
What type of barrettes do you use?
French Barrettes used by Bowbiz are high quality, durable metal hair clips. They are nickel plated and tested to be lead free. They are tiny measuring only 30mm x 5mm.
What is the best way to attach the barrette to my furbaby?
A suggestion for easy placement is to put the hair up in an elastic band first, then slip the barrette through the hair just below the band. This will cause the barrette to hold in place better and much more securely. Note that a topknot cannot be made with a barrette. If you want the look of a topknot, simply make the topknot with a band first, then slip the barrette through the hair under the elastic.
How durable are barrettes?
This depends on how they are handled. Although the barrettes I use are of high quality, they are small and fragile & they can break if mishandled. Naturally you should not put too much hair in the barrette or press too hard on the release bars. If too much hair is put in a barrette, the release bar will bend and the barrette will break. Rest assured that each barrette is tested prior to shipping out and is guaranteed to be in perfect working order when shipped.
Are barrettes safe?
Clearly you are introducing a small, hard object near your furbaby. If barrettes become detached, they can be potentially dangerous if chewed or ingested. There is always a higher risk of choking. Note that some embellishments are glued, not sewn, to barrettes. Please be certain to know your furbaby's temperament and monitor them if/when necessary. (Note that BowBiz cannot be held liable for any accident or injury involving barrettes.)
