Squid Hairclip

The Squid Hairclip is a type of headgear in Splatoon. It is 2-star item produced by the amiibo brand and comes with the main ability Swim Speed Up.

This item cannot be purchased. Instead, it can only be obtained through completing the Inkling Girl amiibo's challenges.

Appearance

The Squid Hairclip is a small barrette with the "S" from the Splatoon logo on it, complete with the gray bubble pattern at the bottom. The only difference from the logo is that it has eyes. Like the rest of the school gear, the hairclip's appearance changes based on the wearer's gender. If worn by a female, the hairclip goes on the left side of her bangs. If worn by a male, it goes on the band used to keep his tentacles up.

Abilities

The Squid Hairclip comes with Swim Speed Up as a main ability. As a 2-star item, it also has two slots for secondary abilities. Since the amiibo brand does not change the likelihood of any secondary abilities, they all have an equal chance.

1. Octotrooper Hideout — Catch That Zapfish!
2. Lair of the Octoballs — Splat Your Way to the Top!
3. Rise of the Octocopters — Leap to Victory!
