Hair Flower Ideas (Pic Heavy)

[LisaG]

Hey Shelley - If you turn your flash off, you can get a better pic. The light reflects off of the white.

hey shelley, how did you attach them to the clip & what type of clip is it? i bought a flower on a stem at a craft store & a comb-like clip. I'm trying to figure out the best way to attach it. i dont trust hot glue enough.

 

I've taken the flower off the stem. i was thinking of trying to sew it on. I'm also considering metal wire. another thought is to glue something into where the stem was & stick that straight into my hair (which will be up). Just the slick alone didn't feel right. Too thick maybe. It also wasn't bent right.

Ok... revisiting this topic For those that used a hair flower, what type of backer did you use? I'm ordering from either FLOWER CLIP :: Hand Picked Silk Flower Hair Clips and other Floral Accessories or Gabby Mac (who is also on Ebay cheaper!). My hair is fairly thin, shoulder length, and I'm planning on having it tied up loosely - prob in a french twist type thing. Should I get smaller flowers on bobby pins or alligator clips? And for a larger flower, do you use a comb or alligator clip? Hoping someone can help!

Mine came with an alligator clip on the back. It stayed in all night with no problem. I didn't have to adjust it at all. I do have thick hair though.
