Add us as a preferred source on Google »Claw clips have the power to make our hair look somewhat like Rachel Green's rather than Miss Trunchbull's.
They're one of the best accessories unless you're a driver.
A warning has been issued after a stark rise in TikTok's about the dangers of wearing claw clips when you drive.
If you've not yet seen the videos trending on TikTok then let me explain what's going on.
It turns out that claw clips are actually pretty dangerous accessories if you're driving.
Multiple women have been injured by the clips in car accidents and the damage they're causing is pretty awful.
Many women have had the clips lodged into their heads and some have even had them lodged into their skulls.
Scrap Car Comparison has advised people to stop wearing claw clips when they're driving after the rise in incidents.
They told The Sun: "While a claw clip may look stylish - wearing the item while behind the wheel could lead to painful and debilitating injuries, should you find yourself in the unfortunate situation of being involved in a collision.
"Because of the proximity to the head, and the many claws which these accessories are made up of, the hair grips could cause significant injuries to the skull, face, and neck if you were to be involved in a crash."
If you need to tie your hair up when you're out driving, then using a scrunchie or hair tie is your best bet.
They won't cause any damage and will keep your hair out of your face without putting you at risk.
We never thought claw clips could be so harmful but we'll be ditching them on our next drive after watching the below video.
Claw clips are officially banned from my car.
