About Kanel

Kanel is not just a brand - it’s a story. A story about care, craftsmanship, and the belief that true beauty is found in things made to last.

More than twenty years ago, our founder and designer, Pauline, began sketching hair accessories. She wasn’t thinking about fast fashion or chasing the latest trend. She was thinking about her daughter. About creating something useful - something that could carry love, identity, and individuality. Every flower clip she made was given its own name, because each one carried its own little story. That personal beginning still shapes everything we do at Kanel today.

​

Hand-drawn designs with soul

Every piece at Kanel starts with a simple sketch, drawn by hand. No templates, no shortcuts - just pencil, paper, and Pauline’s vision. From there, the design grows into something more than an accessory. It becomes an object with intention, originality, and character.

Our goal has always been simple: to create hair clips that are beautiful, practical, and built to last. They should hold your hair with ease, feel good to wear, and stay with you for years to come.

​

Made with care in Denmark

All Kanel hair clips are crafted in Denmark and the EU, in small, thoughtful batches. This allows us to keep a close eye on quality and to respect the people and environment behind every step of the process. Each product carries a REACH certificate, so you can feel confident that what touches your hair has been made responsibly and safely.

We choose strong, durable materials that won’t fade with a season. In a world where fashion is often disposable, we take pride in creating accessories designed to move with you through years, moments, and memories.

What we believe in

At Kanel, beauty is never just surface. For us, it’s about love, honesty, independence, and quality.

• Love for the people who wear our designs.

• Honesty in how we produce them.

• Independence to create something original in a world full of copies.

• And quality in every choice we make - from the first sketch to the finished product.

 

We believe style should reflect personality, not just fashion. That’s why our designs are original, meaningful, and timeless - made to be worn today, tomorrow, and for many years ahead.

Our journey

Since 2001, Pauline has nurtured Kanel with the same passion that sparked its beginning. From handmade cashmere hats and brooches to the hair clips that are now loved around the world, the heart of the brand has never changed. Every collection still begins with her hand, her vision, and her care.
