FAQ
Who are we?
We are a woman-owned and operated business fueled by creativity, connection, and a love for making people sparkle. While we each have full-time jobs, fairy hair is our passion project—something we do because we genuinely love it. That means it may take us up to one business day to respond to inquiries, but please know we’re never far away. We do this for the joy, the magic, and especially for the smiles we see when you catch your sparkles for the first time. ✨
How does fairy hair work?
We tie one piece of fairy hair to one piece of your hair. This way you can still brush your hair and care for your hair properly. We do not recommend using a bead to crimp fairy hair into your hair because it can be snagged during brushing.
How long does fairy hair last?
There is no guarantee on how long fairy hair will last, as it varies from person to person. Fairy hair can last anywhere from a few hours to several days, or even months. Everyone naturally sheds about 50–100 strands of hair per day, and fairy hair sheds along with your natural hair. It often lasts longer on people with thicker hair. We’ve even had a customer keep a strand in for an entire year!
How long does it take?
We book 15–30-minute appointments for customers receiving 10-20 strands of fairy hair.
Can I wash and style my hair?
Yes! We highly encourage people to take care of their hair how they normally would. This includes washing, brushing, coloring, straightening, and blowdrying. If you have any other special haircare situations, just ask.
For the Kiddos
Are you going to cut my hair?
No - we are tying one piece of fairy hair to one piece of your hair. We will trim the fairy hair to be the same length as your hair.
Does it hurt?
It won’t hurt a bit. It’ll feel like someone is playing with your hair.
How are you tying it to my hair?
This is our fairy wand! It’s a very small crochet hook that we will use to knot the fairy hair onto the hair.
How can I see my fairy hair?
We recommend kids look at their fairy hair in a mirror to avoid accidentally pulling it out.
