The use of claw hair bands has made a comeback and taken the internet by storm thanks to TikTok trends.

Claw hair clips were part of a necessary accessory in the 90s, and Jane Fonda sported her claw ponytail like a diva.

It’s one of the easiest hairstyles on the list. To create this hairdo, all you gotta do is get your claw clip and tie half your hair up like a loose ponytail.
