ER Doctors Issue a Chilling Warning About a Popular Hair Accessory — How Can It Become So Dangerous?

We need some claw and order.

In a viral discussion on Threads, hundreds of ER doctors and nurses weighed in on the dangerous everyday things they’d never do themselves.

Some were obvious: They’d never ride a motorcycle, especially without a helmet. They’d never let their kids jump on a trampoline without protective netting. They’d never speed through the city streets on an e-scooter.

But also? They’d never wear a claw clip in their hair.

Claw clips have been a messy-bun staple since the 1980s, but in the recent frenzy for anything “vintage” or “Y2K,” they’ve become a staple for Gen Z.

20-something celebrities like Hailey Bieber and Kendall Jenner have sported the toothy accessory, which retails for as little as $4 at Walmart… or as much as $750 at Prada.
