Jen Atkin Created Affordable Hair Accessories That Are Insanely Chic

Get ready for this game changer: not only does this make your post-SoulCycle topknot look like an object d'art, but also it doubles as a bracelet, which is so much cuter than rocking a rubber band around your wrist.

"It’s like when you’re at the gym and you want to go to dinner, you take it in your bag," explained Jen. "It’s so great because it dresses up a simple topknot and makes it just look like it was actually planned, and it takes two seconds to do and anyone can use it."

(And yeah, we think that model totally looks like Kylie Jenner, too.)

A simple circle clip can instantly add pizzazz to an updo with minimal styling effort needed.

"We have small for the girls with fine hair, who always feel like they can never find a clip that really works for their hair type, and then we have the larger size for girls with thicker, curly, or coarse hair that’s kind of hard to get into one clip," Jen explained. "You can totally use it for a functional clip or you can use it as just something to dress your hair up."

These even look pretty as accents to a basic ponytail.

"My fave," Jen gushed on the moon-shaped pick. "It’s like this amazing piece that acts as a comb, so again it will actually secure your hair if you want to do a half-up, half-down. I did a side part and put it here in the side to keep it away, which I thought was really cool."

According to Jen, the comb is great for fine hair. "You can tease the hair, maybe bobby-pin it, and then put the clip in," she explained. "Crisscross the bobby pin and just secure that above it."

The Crescent Barrette is like the comb but has a fastener. Jen recommends it for women with medium to thick hair.

"The fan pins are based off of the expensive Japanese pins that I could never find," explained Jen. "They’re derivative of French hair pins, but they’re really great for securing a twisted knot or half-up, half-down. There are many things you can do with it."

"So the Thin and Thick Plank Barrettes are kind of like your classic barrettes, but I feel like you made them really unique with the way you’re pairing them," Jen noted.

"We wanted to make thicker and thinner ones just depending on your personality and your hair type and what goes with what outfit," Jen said. "But what is great about it is you can kind of mix and match. It’s fun because you can play around and double or triple stack them."

"Whether you want to do a half-up, half-down look or just take one side away from your face — like you saw on the Rodarte show last year — this is a really great way of securing your hair and just doing a different, fun look," Jen said.

"It’s not like an adolescent headband; it’s for like a cool girl," Jen said of the split headband. "If you notice one of my girls like flipped the script and she flipped it upside down, which is even cooler. You can actually wear the headband towards the back, the nape of your neck."

"We basically gave the bobby pin a facelift," Jen joked of these wishbone-shaped pins. "It was my goal in life to create a really gorgeous color story, and I also want people to be able to play around. Everyone shows me Pinterest photos, and I’m like, 'You can do this at home!'"

"So we have these for the girls who get overwhelmed with putting clips in their hair," Jen said. "You have no excuses now because we made the clip set so easy. It’s literally like a duck-bill clip but fashionable — you can just slide it right in."
