Some kippot like frik, Breslov, Ethiopian, Yemenite and Bucharian stay on your head without anything to hold it there. Many bald men or men losing their hair wear frik or Bucharian kippot (or plain colored cloth ones that do not have the traditional Burcharian designs)
Some you use clips for. They even make kippah clips with Judaism designs on them. These work the best for knit or cloth circular kippot that are associated with Judaism by most non-Jews.
Some people like to use Kippons which are velcro strips that attach to the kippah and then stick easily to your hair. These work best on leather or suede kippot. I have a lot of leather or suede kippot with painted designs on them and you just stick the Kippons on the kippah and then put the kippah on, then push down on the velcro and it sticks to your hair all day. The problem is, the velcro does not work so good after a while and they have to be replaced.

I am Jewish and my brothers and I collect all different kinds of kippah and I think we must have at least one of each kind.
