Huggies and clasped hoops open on a small hinge, and the trick is to be gentle:
- Hold the hoop and find the latch — usually opposite the hinge.
- Press or lift it along its natural arc — the way it’s built to swing open. Don’t pull it straight apart.
- To close, guide it back until you feel a soft click. Never pry with a fingernail or tool, and never force a stiff hinge — that’s what bends them out of shape.
If a hinge feels stiff, a little patience (not force) almost always does it.
If a hinge ever fails under normal wear, it’s covered by our Lifetime Hardware Assurance — see Stylr’s guarantees & warranty, explained.
