Look Glamorous With Hair Sticks







Hair sticks can add a little glamour to your up-do. You can use a variety of hair sticks on any hair that is long enough to hold them in securely. Experiment with various ways to wear hair sticks; once you get the hang of using them, you will want to play around with different hair styles.


Instructions


1. Decide how you are going to put your hair up. You have many different options, including cinnamon buns, Chinese buns, Chinese braided buns, sock buns, figure-eight bun, hair knot, Dutch braid bun and the half-bun (see Resources).


2. Put in your regular hair products, if any. Note that leave-in conditioners work well when putting your hair up with hair sticks.








3. Gather hair at crown and twist, braid or put in bun. Assemble your style and secure with ponytail holders, clips or bobby pins if necessary.


4. Tuck in any loose ends, or let some tendrils hang down. Adjust your hair so that your style is not too tight, but will hold fairly well.


5. Push hair sticks gently through your hair, weaving back and forth for the best hold. Use two sticks for optimal hold, or you can use just one stick.
