Switched from sectioning clips to alligator clips 2 months ago

I used to section hair with those big metal clips from beauty supply stores for like 5 years. Finally gave alligator clips a try after a stylist in Denver showed me how much faster they are for fine sections. Now I can color a full head in 45 minutes instead of an hour. Has anyone else made weird small tool changes that cut your time way down?

Man, that thing you said about weird small tool changes really got me thinking. I switched from those big bulky clips to the little duckbill clips a couple years ago and it was night and day for me too. I used to fight with those big metal ones always slipping out or getting tangled in my hair, but the alligator clips just grab tight and stay put. It's funny how something that seems so minor can shave 15 minutes off your routine. Once you find that one little time saver it makes you wonder what else you've been doing the hard way all along.

Oh, those are actually called alligator clips (since they have teeth like an alligator), not duckbill clips (which are flat and smooth).
