Islamic Ruling & Answer
VerifiedWalekumussalam,
It is permissible for a woman to use small clips at home to arrange or beautify her hair. When she wears a hijab, if the clips are only used to hold the hair and remain hidden under the hijab, it is not necessary to remove them.
However, if the clips cause a noticeable bump or adornment to appear over the hijab, it is better to remove them so that the simplicity of the hijab and proper modesty are maintained.
