What Is Hair Tinsel?

How To Tie Tinsel In Hair Wig?

If you are wondering how to put in hair tinsels, you can focus on the content of this part. We will introduce 2 ways to tie hair tinsel in your wig.

1. Part your hair

Firstly, use a comb to do a proper part according to the structure of your wig. If your wig can only keep the middle part, you dont have to part it again; if your wig has a big area of lace part, you can part it according to your preference.

2. Fold the tinsel in half

There are many options when you choose the color of your hair tinsel. You can choose a color similar to the color with your wig. Bright-colored tinsel is also a good choice, which stands out against your hair color and can create a bold and shining style.

Because you need to fold them in half to tie in your hair root, you should buy the hair tinsel as twice as long as your hair length so that the tinsel can keep the same length as your wig.

3. Make a slip knot

In order to make a slip knot with tinsel, first, you need to hold the folded end with one hand so that a loop is formed. Then use the thumb and index finger of the other hand to pass through the ring and pinch the two ends of the tinsel and pull back. Then a slip knot is finished.

There is a way to check whether the knot is successfully tied. Remove your fingers and pull the loop away, the ring will disappear instead of tightening into a knot.

4. Tie the loop in your hair

Grab 2 or 3 hairs and make them through the loop, and then pull the ends of the tinsel to tighten it near the roots of the hairs. Remember to make sure that the strands of hair completely go through the loop so that they wont get tangled or knotted.

5. Tie the tinsel into a simple knot

To avoid the tinsel sliding off the hair, you should make it tight. Overlap the two ends of the tinsel, and then make one through the look. Then, pull the ends in opposite directions to secure the knot near the roots of hairs. The knot can keep the tinsel in your wig for about 3 weeks. You can comb and style your wig as usual and it wont break or get smelly.
