Barrettes made in copper and jewelry brass are significantly heavier than the aluminum version. If you have thinner hair we'd recommend trying an aluminum barrette first.

Some of our favorite color combinations:

 Copper (note the omitted large center ring), Jewelry Brass, and a picture for scale shown in copper.

 

Technical details for the images shown (depending on your ring supplier, your stats may vary):

Aluminum barrettes weigh 10.3 grams (.36 oz) when completed.
Copper barrettes weigh 25.5 grams (.90) when completed.
JBRS barrettes weigh 27.5 grams (.97 oz) when completed.

All barrettes measure 2.4"x1.7" (59 x 43 mm) at their widest points.
