African Butterfly Clip Website
I bookmarked this site many moons ago because I loved the way they looked. I have since been clearing out my bookmarks and saw this again. The following is some background information on the site:
The Casement Group LLC is a U.S. distributor for African Butterfly Hair Clips CC. which is based in South Africa and has been manufacturing and trading now for the last 5 years. African Butterfly Hair Clips CC is a member of THE FAIR TRADE ASSOCIATION OF CRAFT SA (FACSA)
The clips originate from our factory in Johannesburg. Africans hand bead every clip to perfection, each clip is tested for durability and strength, ensuring only the very best hair clips leave our door, straight to yours. Only about 3 clips per 1000 are ever returned for exchanges. You can be assured, when you buy a genuine African butterfly hair clip, you are investing in the best.
Every time you purchase an African Butterfly product, you are helping to alleviate unemployment and poverty in South Africa. From a very small beginning 5 years ago, with only 2 clip weavers, we presently support at least 160 people in the local African community.
A big thank you to those who have supported us all this time. From our weavers in South Africa, a huge “Siyabonga” that’s “thank you” in English.
To protect the product and the women and men it employs, the African Butterfly hair clip has been patented world wide.
This comb comes with a one year guarantee because of it’s Quality and Durability, so be assured you have the original!!!
How cool is that? They kind of remind me of hair zings but a little bit sturdier and more unique. Some other neat points of interest:
- They provide a one year guarantee
- Thick hair clips are available for long or extra thick hair
- Shipping is free in the continental US
- Shipping takes about 2 weeks, though you can pay for UPS or priority USPS
- Due to the artistic nature of the handmade clips, shades and designs may vary slightly
- Prices range from 23.95 to 49.95, most in the 20 or 30 dollar range
I’ve chosen these to be my one hair accessory for the month, per my No Buy Challenge rules. I’ve been notified that they are in the process of restocking right now, so if you’re interested in one of these, you may want to wait a few days if the one you want is not in stock. And of course, my review will be up when I recieve mine.

Bekka, I got mine today too, I will be trying it tomorrow after I put in some twists.
Yay.. can’t wait to see what you do with yours.
I have about a dozen of these and absolutely will wear nothing else since discovering them! They are easy to use, extremely comfortable to wear. I highly recommend them to anyone thinking about buying one (or more LOL)
