Where to get tinsel in hair

The kit comes with strands in 16 colors, so there is NO shortage of fun colors to use. It also includes a tool to use for installation, but we found it easier to just do it by hand. Each strand was 48 inches long. If you have shorter hair, you could cut them in half and have even more of them to use. You can put fairy hair on a child of any age. As long as they can sit still to have it put in, they can get fairy hair. But be aware that fairy hair may not stay in as long on children, since they tend to shed hair at a higher rate than adults.

Applying fairy hair is super easy. The hair tinsel is simple to work with and only takes a few seconds to get attached once you have mastered the technique.

Start by deciding how much fairy hair you want and where you want it. Do you want just a few sparkles framing your face or do you want sparkles everywhere? Isolate the root of the hairs you want to attach the fairy hair to using hair clips to hold back other hair if necessary.

To make a slip knot in your hair tinsel, start by folding the strand in half, finding the middle point. Now put your fingers through the loop, and grab the tail of the strand that crossed over the top of the other strand and pull it into your loop, forming another loop.

You can tighten your slip knot by pulling on the end of the strand that you pulled in to form the loop. Loosen by pulling on the loop. Studio Knit has a great post with pics and video of how to tie a slip knot that is really helpful for this process. Now thread a few strands of hair 3 to 5 strands for fine hair or 1 to 2 for thick hair through the loop of the slipknot. Pull the slip knot tight and move the loop as close to the root of the hair as you can.

We found it helpful to ask the person who was getting the fairy hair put in to place a finger over spot where the strand was put in place to hold it there while we finished attaching it. Now take the strand of hair and the hair tinsel and tie the two of them together two or three times. To finish attaching the hair tinsel, tie the two ends of the fair hair to each other, leaving the hair out of the final knot.

Repeat this process with as many strands as you want, scattering them evenly all over the hair. To finish it off, trim the hair tinsel to the same length as the hair surrounding it. That should help it keep from moving. Want fairy hair to stay in as long as possible? The strands are designed to be low maintenance and easily incorporated into your daily routine. You can wash, brush, and style it however you like, hair tinsel is heat resistant up to o F! This ease of use makes it the perfect accessory for multiple-day festivals, such as Burning Man or weeklong getaways.

You can have Instagram-worthy hair every day without spending any extra time in the mornings! Even children can wear hair tinsel, but only if they are patient enough to sit still through application. Anyone can learn how to apply hair tinsel. Typically hairstylists take the time to learn the technique because they have a clientele to share the shimmer with, but anyone with some dexterity and an installation kit can install glitter extensions.

Applying tinsel to yourself might be a different story, your arms will be sore and your eyes a bit strained from watching the process in the mirror but, with practice, it is possible!

For professional hairstylists, it is essential to learn and practice before you have a paying client in your chair wanting tons of tinsel. More recently, Kasey Musgraves took tinsel to the extreme with a ponytail loaded with gold and fuschia hair tinsel worn for her performance in New Orleans, LA.

The best way to capture the real effect of your hair tinsel is to take videos; for this style, movement is key! A post shared by Goddess Glitter Hair Tinsel goddessglitterhair.
