I have a baby with HAIR – beautiful, long wisps of actual hair!!!

Before Sophia arrived, Janice and I were used to bald babies. Fair-skinned, little angels with just enough baby fuzz to pick out their hair color.
Jackson — white blond, like Janice and me when we were young.
Julia — red, like her paternal Grandmother and maternal Great-Grandmother.
Olivia — light brown, like her Daddy.
And then came Miss Sophia!
Little Miss Sophia entered the world with dark, almost black, hair and olive skin!
We didn’t have to look hard to figure out where she came from — her Daddy is Italian and our moms’ sister had similar coloring as well — but she still looked so different from any babies we were used to cuddling and calling our own.
While nursing my newest daughter, I would look down in wonder at my beautiful, dark haired, olive skinned baby.
She didn’t match her sister and cousins! (One day, I can just see Julia and Olivia envying Sophia’s dark skin that tans with ease. Poor Julia and Olivia are so fair, the sun will never be their friend!)
And ohhhh how much fun it is to have a baby with HAIR!
Bring on the hair bows and clips — I have something to work with this time.
So, I was thrilled to try out Little Miss Clips — hair clips that don’t slip!
Because as much hair as Sophia does have, it is wispy and baby-soft.
This photo is of Sophia and big sister Julia, both wearing Little Miss Clips.
It has lightened since she was born and so now, she and Olivia actually do have similar hair colors. (Although Olivia is still pretty much as bald as the day she was born!)
With fine baby hair – and the wiggly nature of babies and toddlers – getting hair clips to stay in place is a mother’s never ending battle.
I was so pleased to see that Little Miss Clips do stay right where you put them, thank you very much!
And with such sweet designs, Little Miss Clips makes having little girls to dress up all the more fun!
How does it work? Well, the base – a strong alligator clip – is wrapped in pretty ribbon, topped with a cute embellishment and the “ingredient” which makes it slip-proof is a piece of Velcro added to the underbelly. The clips are easy to put in, stay put and don’t hurt when taken out. Really.
Little Miss Clips come in a wide variety of colors and styles. You can even have clips custom made. If your daughter’s hair is fine and clips never seem to stay put, Little Miss Clips will come to your rescue.
For five of our readers, we have $20.00 gift certificates to Little Miss Clips. That will definitely make for a fun shopping spree.

Those are so cute!! I cannot wait until Baby Sister has enough hair to pull back in a barrett. I am hoping she will have some in the nest few months. Her hair seems to be coming in. Big Brother had long hair by the time he was five months old but Baby Sister is still pretty bald. It figures – everyone thought Big Brother was a girl because of his long hair (I wouldn’t cut it until he could at least sit in the chair) and people think Baby Sister is a boy because she has no hair.

I’ve been trying to find some ouchless hair clips because I’m assuming our expected little girl (due in May) will have a full head of hair like her older brothers. These sound perfect! Although, with my luck, the girl will be our first bald baby

My 2-year-old daughter is just getting to the point where she will actually keep clips in her hair longer than 2 seconds! And I am so glad! She looks so sweet with her hair clipped back…not to mention that clips keep her hair out of her face.
The Little Miss Clips collection is fantastic. I especially love the butterfly kisses clip and the cupcake clip.

She needs a little something to pull the hair out of her eyes – and let people know that yes, she is a girl!
These would be great for my daughter, whose hair is finally starting to get long enough to use clips!
it is great to find clips that stay in the hair
I think that sounds like a great idea! My little one doesn’t keep bows in her hair. Maybe these would work better.

Dear TopazTook,
Our clippies don’t give the “ouchies”! Unlike snap clips which pinch the hair, our alligator clips simply clip in and clip out – no pinching!
