Bibs ~ velcro or snaps?

Hello lovelies

As the title suggests, do you prefer bibs with snaps or velcro closure?
I have recently started up a WAHM business & just doing a bit of 'research'.

Thanks!

I prefer snaps on my DS. Most times when I wear a velcro one on him, the Bib manages to twist around and then the velcro scratches on his face ... it's so annoying for him and I feel terrible!

snaps! velcro can scratch and they can pull them off too easy

Snaps when they are little, when older and starting solids I much prefered a huge rectangle bib with a hole for their head. It was much harder for them to rip off and kept their clothes alot cleaner than the smaller bibs.

snaps 100%

Snaps, the Velcro ruins anything washed with it even if it's stuck together it manages to attach itself to other clothes especially singlets and pull threads on them.

Other! We only use the bonds over the head ones, easy to put on and he can't pull them off plus they come in a good range of colours and are reversible !

Either snaps or pull over the head (although I found these too big for newborns). Velcro was useless.. It lost it's effectiveness very quickly and DS could pull the bibs off himself when he got a bit older. I ended up chucking all my Velcro ones!!

I chose other because I liked the pull over the head ones as snaps were too hard to do up one handed while feeding when he was little, velcro were good but he could pull them off when he got older but the over the head took a lot longer to figure out!

i chose snaps, yet all my bib's are velcro, the only reason i say snaps is that i am forever trying to keep my 19 months old DS's bib on him, so i say snaps, i have learnt the hard way. The velcro worked well when bub's are younger, but ones they are older they are just to easy to pull off same with the over the head ones, DS takes them off to.
