Hair clip without coil spring

Abstract

A hair clip includes two jaws each having a hand grip extended from one end, and a coupling device having a spring member engaged with the hand grips of the jaws for coupling the jaws and the coupling device together and for allowing the jaws to be forced away from each other and to engage with a hair of a user when the hand grips are forced and depressed toward each other by the user. The spring member is preferably a curved spring member, and the coupling device includes two brackets formed on the ends of the spring member and each having a channel for receiving and engaging with the hand grips. A block is formed in each jaw for reinforcing the jaws and the hand grips.
