8. Claw clips
Have you ever tried to get comfy against a headrest while wearing a claw clip? If you haven’t, we definitely suggest avoiding it! While claw clips are quite stylish, they might not be the coziest choice for plane travel.
The limited space on an airplane can make it tricky to manage long hair secured in a claw clip, as it could easily get caught or pulled when you move. Wearing one for a long time can lead to headaches. Instead, consider going for a more comfortable hairstyle like a loose braid or ponytail- it can really boost your comfort level during your flight.

I wear cotton fabrics. Polyesters are flammable.
I have stressed that very same thing. The worst thing about polyesters is that they melt to the skin, continues to burn and then have to be peeled/cut off. As cotton burns it falls off. I’d rather be inconvenienced by some temporarily exposed skin than to spend months being repaired in burn units.
An airplane can get really cold, especially around your feet. When I see someone getting on with flip-flops, I know they will be very uncomfortable, why do you think first class gets a pair of socks? Also, this is the biggest piece of advice I can share NEVER sit on the aisle holding a baby. When those luggage bins open up luggage often falls out, and I’ve heard horror stories.
I live in Central Florida and I cringe at the airport seeing all states of undress. Flip-flips, short-shorts, bathing suit tops. In an emergency a person needs to move FAST – even to RUN. Flip-flops and sandals don’t allow quick movement or protect from glass, cut metal or the big, heavy feet of others. Polyester fabrics melt to skin when exposed to fire – and it removed by peeling or cutting off of skin. Cotton fabrics are the best because they turn to ash when burned. ‘Tennis shoes’ give the best foot coverage and solid, sure-footedness.
