Framar Extra Dirty Gator Grips - 4 Pack
Framar Gator Grips Extra Dirty 4 Pack. The Framar Gator Grips Extra Dirty 4 Pack brings a playful martini-inspired motif to professional salon backbars and stations. These extra-wide, secure clips hold thick or thin sections of hair without slipping, creasing, or pulling, making them an essential tool for colorists, stylists, and barbers who need consistent tension and reliable sectioning. The set of four offers immediate versatility for foiling, balayage, cutting, or styling, while the vibrant olive and stripe patterns add personality to any workstation.
Quick Take
Built for the pace of a busy salon, these grips deliver professional-grade performance with a stylish twist. Their durable construction and oversized jaws make them a favorite for professionals who refuse to compromise on tool quality.
- Extra-wide jaw opening accommodates thick sections and multiple foils without slipping
- Matte olive green finish with “Extra Dirty” martini and olive motifs for distinct station style
- Textured interior grip surface holds fine, thick, or chemically treated hair securely
- Lightweight but strong construction reduces hand fatigue during back-to-back services
- Bonded design prevents hair snagging or creasing, protecting treated and virgin strands
- Versatile enough for cutting, coloring, foiling, and styling protocols
Why Pros Choose It
In a professional setting, tools must work as hard as the stylist. The Gator Grips are engineered to provide reliable hold without damaging the hair or disrupting work flow. Their wide profile and secure tension allow colorists to work with larger sections, saving time while maintaining precision during foiling or balayage application.
Beyond function, the aesthetic appeal helps salons brand their stations with a cohesive, playful look. The matte olive finish and “Extra Dirty” theme are subtle enough to look chic while adding a conversation starter at the chair. For backbar organization, having a recognizable set of four means quick access and reduced time searching for lost clips.
