Feathers in my Hair

 I ordered mine from ebay (from starasiastarr), who I would highly recommend for her fast shipping and HUGE selection!  My package came with my choice of 5 feathers (I chose mostly neutrals, so they would blend in, but still stand out, from my dirty blonde hair: black and white grizzly, golden yellow grizzly, blond badger, black and brown grizzly, and a red and black grizzly, which is the only one that I did not put in, but I threw it in for good measure to have a funky one on hand if my mood calls for it).  She also includes printed instructions, 4 crimp beads (color of your choice), and a small piece of flexible (plastic?) wire, which you will need in order to “install” the feathers. I applied the golden yellow grizzly, and black and brown grizzly together in one crimp bead fairly close to the top of my head, leaving about a half an inch layer of hair to lay on top of it to hide the (barely visible) bead.  I then combined the black and white grizzly, and blonde badger feathers, and put them in near the nape of my neck, on the very left, so that when my hair is down, they lay underneath, but are still visible.  They were really easy to install and I was so happy with the results!

For those of you who are feather-extension-commitment-phobes, I have some news for you!  Sultra has launched a line of temporary clip-in feather extensions, so you can all join in on the feather-fun!  Each extension clip comes with 4 different feathers attached, and they currently have 3 different color-combinations available for purchase online at Sephora.   

The clip-ins are $25, and can be washed and curled, just like the semi-permanent extensions.  The great thing is that they can be put in and removed as you please, so you can take them out for not-so-feather-appropriate occasions.  (Although, I mean, when would you NOT want feathers in your hair 😉 )
