Fairy Hair Tinsel Extensions (Holographic gold)

Product Information

Once the bead is added, continue braiding as usual until you hit another spot along the strands of hair that you want to add a bead, and repeat the 5th step above. Make sure you braid as tight as possible under the bead, so it stays in place. The tie-in technique doesn’t require any special tools, is easy to do, and allows you to get the most seamless look with your tinsel. But it takes longer, doesn’t last as long as microbead tinsel extensions, and limits the amount of tinsel you can apply to each section.

Use a rattail comb or your fingers to separate 1-3 strands of hair in the area you want to apply tinsel. It helps to move your usual part line over slightly to better hide the tinsel knots.The fiery allure of red cherry hair combined with the delicate shine of rose gold creates an enchanting, regal look. Intertwine the tinsel within braids or pin curls for a fairytale-like charm. It’s a bit heavier and messier to apply than tinsel. Glitter also doesn’t have the same flexibility and may be more likely to make your hair snag on things. You can also space space single strands evenly around your parting for a low maintenance look. Step #3 Apply the hair tinsel.

We’ve shared fun hair projects before, like our Kool Aid Hair Dye Tutorial, but we really like this one due to the non-permanent, non-damaging nature of hair tinsel. Removing beaded tinsel extensions requires needle nose pliers. Locate the bead and pinch it on the sides until the bead opens. Slide it off your hair. Repeat until you remove all the tinsel hair. Hold the tinsel up to your roots and cut it where the end of your hair meets the strand of tinsel, so it’s the same length as your hair. Step #2 You can also use clip-on hair extensions for an instant holographic effect. And you can combine strands of tinsel with other hair accessories, such as flowers, headbands, beads or bows.

Tie-in hair tinsel lasts 1-2 weeks when applied to medium or coarse hair. In fine hair, tie-in tinsel may only last a few days as the knots easily slip out.

Whether you’re going out on the town or just staying at home, we think you’ll love the look of fairy hair in your hair. So go ahead and give it a try! 🙂 Take a single strand of tinsel and fold it in half to find the midpoint. Form a slip knot with the folded hair. Finally, make sure to use a sulfate-free shampoo and conditionerto avoid stripping the hair of its natural oils. Hair tinsel is made from a type of material that can withstand high temperatures, so you can feel confident using heated styling tools like curling irons, flat irons and hair straighteners.Take the small section of hair you just identified in one hand and grab your tinsel by the slip knot with the other hand. Pull the section of hair through the opening of the slip knot and tighten the loop as you reach the scalp. With the tinsel in one hand and the small section of hair in the other, double knot the two at the roots to secure the hair tinsel. Repeat the process until you reach your desired look and finish by carefully trimming the tinsel to match the length of your 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. How To Put In Hair Tinsel To tape in the hair tinsel, you’ll need scissors, a hair tinsel kit, and a comb. Wash and dry your hair. Do not use an oil-based product when preparing your hair for the tape-in.

This technique is a little more challenging, but it works well on any hair type.Hair tinsel is totally safe and does not damage hair when applied, maintained, and removed properly. Tie-in extensions should be tied slightly lower than the root to avoid putting too much tension on the roots (which could lead to partial hair loss or breakage over time). We found that some strands lasted longer than others, and a few fell out the first night they were slept in. But because we had so many on hand, it was super easy to replace them and keep going. Pull the tinsel ends downwards, ensuring they slide through the loop completely, making a knot around your hair strands.
