BALMAIN Cellulose Acetate Pince à cheveux Small White

Some accessories are an afterthought. A pince à cheveux is a decision. This small claw clip in white cellulose acetate comes from Les Accessoires, the luxury accessory line Balmain Hair built on the couture house’s own heritage — nothing but the finest materials, craftsmen, and design, with every piece entirely handcrafted using traditional techniques.

Look closely and you’ll find the signature golden detailing, the recurring design element that threads through every Balmain Paris collection, set against a clean, gallery-white finish. It’s the kind of object that works as hard on a vanity tray as it does in your hair — couture jewelry that happens to hold a twist.

And the Small earns its name. Balmain designed this scale of claw especially for thin, fine hair, the texture most clips are simply too big for. It sweeps loose tresses away from the face or off the neck in one motion and holds them there — polished enough for dinner, easy enough for a Tuesday.

Why our stylists reach for it

• Part of Les Accessoires, Balmain Hair’s entirely handcrafted couture accessory line
• Cut from cellulose acetate in a crisp white colorway

• Sweeps hair cleanly off the face or neck — the fastest good hair day there is
• Made by craftsmen using traditional techniques, from the finest materials

How to Use

Gather a half-up section, or twist your lengths loosely at the nape. Open the claw, set it over the twist, and let it close — that’s the whole routine. On fine hair, keep the section light so the small claw can do its work, and reposition as often as the day demands.

You’ll find Les Accessoires on the shelf at the Studio Beige atelier in Destin. Try the clip in your own hair before you take it home — our stylists will happily show you the twist that suits your length — and walk out with a little piece of Paris for the Emerald Coast.
