Hair Crystals or Hair Tinsel New Hair Bling

Looking for a little something different, like the new hair tinsel Beyoncé has been supporting on the red carpet. The new hair bling has become so popular it was even mentioned on Oprah. There are all kinds of new bling available online. I recently found the new Calicrystals online. The new crystals are a singlehair crystalthat attaches to your hair. They can be placed anywhere in women's hair with the new patented attachment system. The crystal can easily be removed just by sliding the crystal off without damaging the hair. Some products use glue and heat to attach their crystals, the Calicrystals come with an applicator to slide them onto your hair, no glue. Calicrystals come in six gem colors rose, steel blue, pink, turquoise blue, peridot, and diamond. All of the hair crystals have a brilliant sparkle showing many different colors. The gems are 4mm in size, they look like stars in the hair when they sparkle. The translucent look of the crystals, add to the sparkle in a hair style. The hair crystals are great for a night out on the town to bling up your hair or an elegant look for a wedding or prom. Some ladies just like to add a little everyday bling; Calicrystals are great for every day since they are reusable. When done with the hair crystal just save it for another time, don't forget to save the applicator to install them for the next time. Finding the new hair tinsel online is pretty easy because there are so many companies offering it right now. The new calicrystals are only offered at Caliglimmers the exclusive dealer of the new product.  The tinsel has been popular for the past 3 years, so change it up with Calicrystals. Ladies will find this product much more user friendly than the tinsel with the new patented system and applicator to install the hair crystals. ...read more

The tinsel is applied to a strand or strands of hair with a simple slip knot.  There are plenty of how to videos and instructions to learn how to tie in hair tinsel.  Some people will find the hair tinsel difficult to install but with practice it is very simple actually.  I would recommend starting off practicing with the 18" tinsel because the 36" is much harder to work with till you get the hang of it. Hair tinselcomes in 20 sparkle colors, in all there are a total of 43 colors with both the shiny and the 3D colors.  Choosing a color for your hair would depend on if you want it to really stand out or just go with a subtle look where the tinsel is hardly noticed.  Any of these looks can be achieved with all the different colors that are out there. ...read more

How To Tie In Hair Tinsel

Like everything it takes a little practice to learn how to tie in hair tinsel and have it stay in. After a few practice tie-ins you will have no problem doing this yourself. I have seen ladies that can tie them into their own hair using a mirror. Everybody has their own idea about how-to-tie in hair tinsel, we have tried them all. The secret to getting the shimmer to stay in is to only tie it to one hair. This will allow the hair to lock with the shimmer when you tighten the knot.First select a hair along the top of your head at the part line. Remember you will be applying 5 to 20 strands of hair tinsel, you will want to space them out evenly from front to back. The person installing will have the recipient hold the hair with two fingers and pull it straight up away from their head.The installer now makes a loop with the shimmer by folding it in half. It does not have to be folded right in the middle it can be offset so the ends of the shimmer do not line up. Now you will wrap the shimmer around the hair and pull the two ends through the loop, grab the two ends and pull them tight. This should make a slip knot around the hair, slide the knot of the shimmer to the base of the hair. Now you let the installer finish tying in the shimmers.With the installer holding the hair, tie a knot with one end of the shimmer and the hair and tighten. Then you will grab the other end of the shimmer and make a knot with this. You can repeat this 2 or 3 times to secure the shimmer to your hair. The last knot you will want to give it a slight tug to secure the shimmer, it should lock it in place. If the shimmer does not slide on the hair when you tug on it, then you tied it in correctly. If you can slide the shimmer you will need additional knots.To get a professional look with the shimmer, try different color combinations and try placing them in different spots throughout the hair. If you would like to learn more or see some of the colors we Come see us atHair Tinsel Bling We would be glad to assist you in tying in your shimmers. ...read more
