Putting tinsel in your hair can add sparkle and shine to your hairstyle. Here's how you can do it:
### Materials Needed:
1. Tinsel strands (available at craft stores or online)
2. Hair clips or bobby pins
3. Hair spray (optional)
4. Comb or hairbrush
### Steps:
1. **Prepare Your Hair**: Start with clean, dry hair. You can style your hair as desired before adding the tinsel. Straight hair or loosely curled hair tends to work best for attaching tinsel.
2. **Separate Hair**: Use a comb or your fingers to section off a small portion of hair where you want to add the tinsel. This could be near your part, along the sides, or throughout your hair for a more scattered look.
3. **Attach Tinsel**: Take a strand of tinsel and hold it against the section of hair where you want to place it. You can start at the roots or a little lower, depending on your preference.
4. **Secure with Clip or Pin**: Once the tinsel is positioned where you want it, use a hair clip or bobby pin to secure it in place. Make sure the clip or pin is hidden under your hair so that only the tinsel is visible.
5. **Repeat**: Continue adding tinsel strands to different sections of your hair until you achieve the desired look. You can add as many or as few strands as you like, depending on how subtle or dramatic you want the effect to be.
6. **Style and Secure**: Once all the tinsel strands are in place, you can style your hair as usual. If desired, you can use a light-hold hairspray to help keep the tinsel in place throughout the day or evening.
7. **Remove Carefully**: When you're ready to remove the tinsel from your hair, gently unclip or unbobby pin each strand and slide it out. Be careful not to tug on your hair or the tinsel too forcefully to avoid damaging your hair.
### Tips:
- Experiment with different colors of tinsel to match your hair color or add a pop of contrast.
- Avoid attaching tinsel too close to the scalp or pulling it too tightly to prevent discomfort or damage to your hair.
- Tinsel can be reused, so you can save any leftover strands for future use.
- Have fun and get creative with your tinsel placement to create unique hairstyles for special occasions or everyday wear.
