Why is Wool Felt the Best? TOP
We use a wool blend felt (30% wool content). The other component is Rayon. Chemicals are not used in the production of our felt. In addition, no plastics or petroleom by-products are used, Just pure, sustainable goodness!
For those unfamilar with Rayon, it is made from wood pulp which, just like wool, is a relatively inexpensive and renewable resource. It can also be a more enviromentally friendly option than acrylic or eco-felts.
Unlike Wool/Rayon blends, Acrylic felt is made by interlocking acrylonitrile which is made from natural gas and petroleum- a type of plastic. Eco-felts are identical in every way to acrylic felt and are created in the same way but instread they are made from recycled bottles made into plastic pellets.
We do not use Acrylic or eco-felt in our accessories.
Are your items CPSIA compliant? TOP
Yes, yes and more yes...
We have testing procedures that go over and beyond what the CPSIA requires.
We use components that are enviromentally safe and kid safe.
For example our Wool Felt is a petroleum free, sustainable product.
Our adhesive is non-toxic, conforms to ASTM D-4236 and is an FDA approved food grade adhesive FDA CFR-175.105
What do you use to make your clippies "No Slip"? TOP
We believe in the safety of our products. In choosing safety, we selected a liner that exceeds government regulations for safety, including lead safety standards.
Our liners contain no potentially harmful magnets or latex components. Latex can cause serious and potentially life threatening allergic reactions. Typically, some shelf liner clippie treatments contain latex.
We exclusively use our very own "Silly Grip" Silicone Clip liners! We designed these silicone liners to be soft and gentle on all hair types but extremly strong.
Each satin matte finish liner is adhered with industrial strengeth 3M adhesive and is made from the same silicone as baby bottle nippes.
We believe that the safety of our children should not be a "trade secret" and we freely share this information with each of our customers.
AND, Boy can these liners keep those clippies in any hair type! They are extremely delicate on your childs hair while keeping our clippies in place.
Do you use Swarovski Crystals? TOP
Because of the new safety standards set for by the CPSIA we have removed all of our Swarovski® crystal elements from our hair accessories made for children under the age of 12 years. Only a select few of our items will be made with Swarovski® crystal components. Our items description will state its use and contain a "lead warning".
These items are made exclusively for our junior fashion and for moms.
If you make a purchase of an item that contains Swarovski® crystals, it will come with a clippie card and sticker that states "This item contains Swarovski® crystals, a component known to contain lead. This item is not for children under the age of 12." You cannot choose to exclude this card and sticker when ordering.
Can I make a Custom Change? TOP
Of Course! The most common requests are to remove crystals, change the Swarovski crystal to a "lead free" glass alternative, or to change the headband from stretchy to hard.
These common requests do not change the price, but some changes may. If you have a change you would like to make, feel free to contact us via our contact page to ask about it.
What are Clippie Cards? TOP
Clippies cards come with each set of clippies unless otherwise noted. It is a beautiful way to gift your clippies or show them in your retail display. You can choose to place your order without them. Just make your selection in your shopping cart.
We have two types of clippie cards. Both are made in a eco-conscious facility from recycled paper.
