How do you clip real flowers in your hair?

Published in Hair styling 2 mins read

To securely clip real flowers in your hair, you'll need to trim the stems, apply floral glue, and carefully attach them to a comb or directly to your hair.

Steps for Clipping Real Flowers in Your Hair

Here's a step-by-step guide to ensure your floral hair accessory looks beautiful and stays put:

  1. Prepare the Flowers:

    • Choose fresh flowers that are not too heavy and have sturdy stems.
    • Trim the stems: Cut the stems of the flowers as short as possible so the blooms sit flush against your comb or hair.
  2. Apply Floral Glue:

  • Dip the cut end of each flower stem into tacky floral glue, ensuring the entire cut area is covered.
  1. Attach the Flowers:

    • Carefully place the flower in the desired spot on a hair comb or directly against your hair.
    • Hold for 30-60 Seconds: Press and hold the flower firmly in place for about 30 seconds to a minute to allow the glue to set properly.
  2. Finishing Touches:

    • Once the glue has dried, check if the flowers are secure.
    • You can add more flowers as needed, following the same steps.

Tips for Success

  • Flower Choice: Opt for flowers that can hold up well without water for a few hours.
  • Glue Quality: Use tacky floral glue specifically designed for flower arranging to ensure a strong and secure hold.
  • Placement: Consider the overall look you are going for. You can arrange flowers on a comb before attaching it or create an arrangement directly in your hair.
  • Secure Base: Using a comb for application gives a better support system, especially with heavier or larger flowers.
