Tinsel is for trees, and Lucky Locks’ sparkles are for the people! It’s a hard thing to change the language around a product that from afar looks just like hair tinsel, but get up close to experience for yourself the difference in quality between our silky strands and rigid hair tinsel. Tinsel is a plastic-based product that is denser and hangs straight and heavily from your hair (so it sheds out faster), has an edge that feels less natural, is more rigid so it doesn’t go with the flow of your hair (especially if you have naturally curly hair), fades in color and shine in less time, and can often melt in your hair with hair tools on medium to high heat! Our strands are soft, flexible and feather-light. Find our more about Lucky Locks silk hair sparkles in our FAQ.
