Bun

The feather hair trend has taken over the hair world since Spring 2011. We have seen them clipped in, sewn in, straightened, curled, hot pink and au natural.

But we haven’t yet seen how to get professional feathers for hair at home, at a minimal cost, besides using clip-ins!

With winter fast approaching comes a change in climate and fashion. Clip-ins don’t stay in place with the wind, and hot pink just isn’t as cool and funky when darker colors take precedent. So what’s a hip gal to do with her desire for feathered tresses?

At-home, Professional Hair Feather Installation

Purchasing feathers for hair is simple enough. Head over to the Feather Hair Extensions site and look for bonded feather hair extensions, which can last you a couple of months at only $13!

Worried about the at-home installation? Don’t! Once you purchase the extension tools, a loop and bead set and pliers totally another $13, it is a cinch!

Follow these simple steps and you’ll be feathered-hair perfected and ready in no time.

  1. Place feather extension bead onto your loop tool.
  2. Part out the location where you want your hair feathers to sit and grab about ten strands of hair. Thread hair through the loop tool. Remember that the feather stem and your strands of hair have to fit through the bead.
  3. Slide the bead off of the loop tool and onto your hair and hold the bead in place very close to your scalp.
  4. Place stems of hair feathers into bead and clamp down to flatten bead around feather stems.
  5. Gently tug on your feathers to ensure that they do not slide off – they shouldn’t! If the feathers are sliding, clamp harder to assure a tighter bead fit.
  6. If needed, trim off excess feather stem above bead so it doesn’t poke scalp.
