Hair Shimmerings Are For Everyone!

As you walk through the market place in Thailand, you will find street vendors offering to tie thin, glimmering strands of silk in a rainbow of colors to individual strands of your hair.

Now you can Buy Hair Shimmerings and either tie them in yourself or have your hair stylist do it for you, although this can cost anywhere from $2 to $5/strand. With minimal instruction and a little practice, YOU can become an expert at applying Hair Shimmerings! Watch the videos, here and here, which are also located under More Information to your right. They teach you how to tie two types of knots, one for long hair and one for shorter hair or bangs.

Read the article and watch the video (also under More Information) about how using Hair Shimmerings can assist you in making new social connections. They are more than a fashion statement! They are conversation magnets!!

When a Hair Shimmering is chosen that is a complementary color to your hair, the shimmers add a subtle and glittering highlight. Choose a bolder color to let the rebel in you out! The strands are thin so each one gives off just a hint of color as it sparkles and glimmers in your hair. Shimmerings are for any age person and for all types of hair ... long, short, curly, wavy or straight.

Each package contains 100 strands, and most people tie between 2 and 10 in their hair. One package can serve a whole family! They can last for upwards of 3 months and can withstand blow drying, hair coloring, flat ironing and use of a curling iron.

You can mix and match colors for a great look. As a person who has red highlights, I use mocha, copper, gold and pastel rainbow.

Here are some suggestions, but all the colors look terrific. (See available colors here.) It's simply a personal choice. Once you try them, you will be hooked on Shimmerings!
