Hair pearls

Where could I find something pearl like to clip into my hair? The closest thing I can find to show you is what Jennifer Aniston had in her hair in the episode of Friends where it was the alternate reality and she was having an affair with Joey:

Also kind of what she had in her hair when she married Brad Pitt:

I was thinking about trying to get some crimps in that design that you would use for necklace making, but would they drag my hair too much? And would I need to put them in/take the out with pliers?!

The picture isn't great but search for "hair pearl" on ebay and quite a few items come up.

better example here, looks like they might be called hair springs:

yep hair springs, they are absolutely fab and they stay put the whole time they are in your hair, they hurt a bit when they're taken out because they may be a bit tangled but i had them at my school prom about 5 years ago and i would recommend.
If you didn't want to get them off of ebay they sell them in claire's accessories or if you want to have a look before you buy.0 -
Thanks. I've never seen them before in stores - would they stay in my hair if it was down? It's quite fine so I'm worried about them slipping out.
Edit - just seen the post about Claires, am going into town today so will have a look there.0 -
HI
May be a little late, but I can get these in quite a few different styles.0
