What do you use for tinsel?

[NovelNerd]

If you're adding hair to self what do you use and where do you get it? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Dollyhair Moonlight, Sunlight.  Because it shimmery but is easy to tame.

Hmm I have them but not sure how it will work with the perfum puff  doing.

Never tried that, but maybe a partial plug here and there?

Stalking. My Starhopper needs tinsel when I get her rehaired

[sunshine29102]

I've ordered hair tinsel from eBay (China, I believe).  Very affordable (think it was less than $5 and free shipping). Took about two weeks to get in, just a heads up.

There are tons of colors.  I chose the hair tinsel that is higher quality, intemded for human use .  I think the strands are about 36 inches in length, which I trimmed and rerooted with marshmallow dollyhair on a Star Hopper. (It was pearl iridescent tinsel, and a bit hard to see in pics, but I included a photo below).

Your Starhopper is so perfect!

I know that both Retrodolls.uk and Retrodolls US sell tinsel online. I wish Dollyhair did too.

There's some thread too. I think it's called Sulky. Not sure at the moment. You can get it at the craft store.

I order mine from Retrodolls if I need some.

I order from a shop on etsy.  It's human tinsel, the kind you tie in.  She had all the colors I needed, but I don't think she sells anymore.  I'll have to look into it.  It was really easy to just slip a few strands into the plugs after I rehaired.

I use tinsel thread that I found at Joann. It comes in quite a few colors too.

@ sweetlittlejenny

The Sulky you mean is called Sulky Sliver Metallic and is a product by Gütermann (a German brand).

@ sunshine29102

Can you hint me to the ebay seller (China) please?

Sending you a PM, as I don't think we can post links...

I'd you ebay search "300's Hair tinsel" you should get lots of results. I was mistaken, though. It was 28 inch strands, not 36.
