- b) subjecting the provided wire to washing;
- c) providing a first coating of a paint material on both outwardly and inwardly facing surfaces of the washed wire;
- d) providing a second coating of an anti-slipping material on the first coating over only the inwardly facing surface of the wire by way of brushing;
- and
- e) bending the wire with the first and second coatings by punching the wire into a shape so that the wire forms the first and second leg portions of the hair clip with a first region including linearly extending portions of the first and second leg portions that are parallel to each other and in abutment along the second coatings thereof at default of the hair clip,
- wherein the second coating forms a convex inner surface of the first and second leg portions, and
