How to apply fairy hair tinsel

Whether you call it fairy hair or hair tinsel or glitter hair, putting in these sparkly strands is easier than you might think, once you get the hang of it.  

The fairy hair trend has been around for a while now.   I’ve seen it in both kids and adults alike, and it’s so much fun, no matter what age you are.  

Fairy hair is a really subtle way to add a little bit of fun and sparkle to your hair in a non-permanent way.    

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.
