Using Hair Sticks

Formal or casual, countless hair stick styles!

Hair sticks can be used to put hair up in a huge variety of styles, from elegant and professional-looking formal buns and chignons to stylish and sexy flips and twists. They are some of the most versatile hair accessories, suitable for many different styles and looks, and also different lengths and types of hair. Hair sticks are a wonderful way for a woman to show off and enhance the beauty of long hair. See our articles page or blog for simple instructions.

Hair sticks aren't just for those with very long hair!

You do not have to have very long hair to use and enjoy hair sticks. As long as hair is long enough to be tied back in a ponytail, it is long enough to use hair sticks! Since hair sticks can be used only to decorate rather than hold a style securely, if hair is long enough to be styled with pins, bands or other hair accessories it is long enough to use hair sticks with. Putting your hair up to protect it while it grows has never been easier!

Secure or simply decorate a style with hair sticks

Hair sticks can be used alone to hold a style in place, or simply to decorate a style held with bands or clips. If the hair is long, hair sticks can be used alone to secure a hair style. If the hair is very thick or very long, other accessories can be used to take the weight and hold the style in place, while the hair sticks decorate the style. It is therefore still easy to create a securely-held style. Hair sticks are actually some of the easiest accessories to use with very long or thick hair.

Contrary to popular belief, long hair does not have to take long to style, or be difficult to find exciting, fun or elegant styles for. Compared to the time and products needed to style short hair, it is actually often quicker to style long hair once you have practiced using hair sticks!

Use one or two hair sticks

Hair sticks are used singly or in pairs. At Art for Hair you can buy a pair of the same design or single sticks to use alone or mix and match.

Although experienced users will easily be able to create a secure style with only one stick, we recommend that those new to hair sticks start with a pair so that the style is held more easily and securely.

Our hair sticks come with full instructions

Each order from Art for Hair comes with an illustrated, step-by-step instruction sheet showing how to use hair sticks to put your hair up in a variety of styles suitable for casual, business or special occasion settings. Practice makes perfect, but even those who have never used hair sticks before will soon easily be able to create them. For more on styles, step-by-step instructions and long hair care, visit our articles page or blog.

Care of your hair sticks

To protect your hair jewelry, do not handle when you have just applied lotion or makeup and do not allow hair sticks to come into contact with hair styling products. Remove hair sticks before swimming, exercising or bathing. When inserting or removing hair sticks, handle by the solid wood, silver or bone shaft and not the decorated top part. If your hair jewelry is cared for properly, it will last many years of use.
