How to use the barrette

This barrette offers a wide range of ways to enhance and vary your hairstyle.

You can use it to pin back a section of your hair, which is particularly handy for keeping your face clear.

For a casual look, pull your hair back into a low ponytail and secure it with a barrette. This adds an elegant touch to your everyday outfit.
For more formal occasions, you might opt for a half-updo, where only the top sections of hair are pinned back to create a sophisticated, elegant look.

As well as serving as a practical hair accessory, this barrette highlights your commitment to fair trade and sustainable consumption. This piece is not just a hair accessory to complement your hairstyle, but also an expression of your commitment to fashion that is both ethical and stylish.

Material

Rhodoïd is a sheet material made from cotton in Italy. The cotton is dyed and pressed into blocks featuring a wide variety of colour patterns. Slices are cut from these blocks, which are then further processed in France in over ten stages to create enchanting hair ornaments and hair accessories.

Packaging and dispatch

When packaging our hair accessories, we strive to strike a reliable balance between transport safety and sustainability. We therefore use only recycled paper and cardboard, as well as eco-friendly packing tape and cotton bags made from naturally renewable raw materials.

Fair Trade barrette

For us, Fair Trade isn’t just fundamental – it goes without saying! That’s why we’ve chosen suitable factories in Europe rather than opting for cheap manufacturing in Asia or Eastern Europe.

It is essential to us that our hair accessories are manufactured under humane conditions, from the sourcing of raw materials right through to the finished product. Our geographical proximity allows us to gain a more detailed insight into the individual stages of production and significantly reduces transport distances, enabling us to make a huge contribution to reducing CO₂ emissions and protecting the environment.

Our barrettes and their packaging are made predominantly from biodegradable raw materials sourced from sustainable agriculture. As our products are manufactured in Germany, France, Austria and Portugal, we can fully guarantee compliance with EU environmental standards, unlike products manufactured in Asia.
