Best Tinsel Hair Extensions of 2025

“I absolutely love these! Last year, I had tinsel put in my daughter's hair at a salon, and it was surprisingly expensive. I thought I could do it at home since I used to put feathers in my hair as a teenager. It was a little tricky at first, but we figured it out, and they look great! The colors are wonderful, and it comes with so many options. I’m very happy with the quality and the price!”

“I bought these as a Christmas gift for my granddaughter, and they were very easy to use. The colors are beautiful, and the quality is fantastic. Plus, the price is great too! I will definitely buy them again.”

“I opened the package, and it exceeded my expectations. The tinsel is super long, which is nice since I have long hair. I appreciate the extension and clip options! Everything I needed was in one package.”

"This is the best hair tinsel set I've used and it's very inexpensive! I watched a YouTube video for guidance, and once I practiced a few times, it became easy to apply. I can do this on my own hair, and they stay in for a while. When I want to remove them, I just push the bead and it slides right off. The variety of colors is fantastic, and it includes all the necessary tools!"

"Using hair tinsel is such a fun and sparkly way to jazz up my hair! The application is simple; I tie strands of tinsel into my natural hair for a subtle shimmer that catches the eye. It’s perfect for special occasions or just to add some excitement to my daily look. I love that there are so many colors to choose from to match my style."

"I found this kit to be wonderful! It contains everything needed for applying tinsel using different methods. While it doesn’t come with instructions, there are plenty of helpful videos available. The ease of use is impressive; I had the tinsel in my daughter’s hair in under 10 minutes after watching a short video. The colors are abundant and vibrant, and they hold up well during washing and brushing!"

"I got these for New Year's, and I’m certain I’ll find many more reasons to wear them. They’re fun, super sparkly, and the rainbow colors match my hair beautifully. They’re a fantastic value; really durable and easy to put in. I wore mine overnight, and they stayed in perfectly! I highly recommend them for adding a little sparkle to any look."

"After seeing a stunning version of these at Disney World, I had to find them. I ordered the 'colorful' set, and they look fabulous on my plain brown hair! I wish I had them in Orlando! They’re perfect for any festive occasion, and I love that each barrette has a great mix of colors. They stay in very well, and I prefer this brand over others I tried!"

"These glitter strands were a great price and super easy to use. I found that using 2-3 strands per hairstyle made them noticeable. My niece hid them easily in her half-up style, and I used them in my ponytail. Compared to fairy hair, these were much easier and reusable. I’ll definitely be purchasing more!"

"I found this kit to be incredibly easy to use. I’ve put almost every color in my daughter’s hair, and they hold up well even after using heat styling tools!"

"These tinsel strands are the best I’ve tried! They stayed in my daughter’s hair for over two weeks, and we love how shiny and pretty they are!"

"I’ve bought this kit multiple times for my daughters. It’s a fun way to add color without damaging their hair, and we’ve even used it at events with friends!"

"I found this tinsel absolutely stunning! The number of strands is a great deal, and the kit has everything needed. I did my daughter's hair and her friend's hair, and it turned out absolutely stunning!"

"After spending $15 each time at the salon for fairy hair, this kit is a great value! It has many colors and tinsel, and all supplies are included. The quality is good, and it holds up well after weeks of play and pool time. I can't speak on heat resistance since I don’t use heat."

"Using this hair tinsel was so much fun for my daughter and me! Once we figured out the best way to apply it, we were all set. The quality is great, and it lasted for days without tangling in her thick hair. I even used heat without any issues. It's very long but can be trimmed easily. Overall, a great and fun product!"

"I ordered these for Christmas, and they are adorable! Initially, I had some trouble figuring out how to put them in my hair, but once I did, it became super easy. I added six strands to my hair and even shared some with my family members. The kit includes plenty of colors, extra beads, pliers, and a bag for storage. They are also simple to remove!"

"My 15-year-old daughter absolutely loves this hair tinsel kit! She's used it countless times, and I even let her put some in my hair. I'm always receiving compliments on how cute it looks. It's easy for her to apply on her own, though I’ve noticed the color fades slightly with washing and heat. Overall, we are very satisfied with this purchase!"

"This product is fantastic and the packaging was impressive. I was thrilled with the number of tinsel strands for such a great price. I highly recommend everyone to get this!"

"I bought this kit for my daughter, and she absolutely loves it! Super easy to apply and looks adorable in her curly hair!"

"I gifted this to my nieces for Christmas. They had to look online for instructions, but once they got the hang of it, they enjoyed it. The packaging could be improved, as some tinsel got tangled."

"As a hairstylist, I found this tinsel kit to be a hit with my kids and clients. So many color choices and easy to use after watching a tutorial!"

"I got this kit for my daughter’s birthday, and it has not disappointed! It offers many colors and comes with beads and the tool to apply the tinsel. The only extra tool I needed was some pliers to secure the beads. The tinsel stays in her hair for up to a week and is super fun!"

"The product arrived really fast, and I was pleased with how good it looked once tied in. However, I found it difficult to do alone and took time and patience. I even tried using my hair straightener, but it caused the tinsel to curl up, which was disappointing. After I reached out, the seller provided excellent customer service, and I changed my review to 5 stars!"

"The amount of product is amazing! I used to pay $5 for just a few pieces of tinsel at the salon, but with this kit, I can't even tell how much I've used after a month. It’s going to last a long time!"

"I found this product to be super affordable and a great source of fun! I can blow-dry, curl, and flat iron my hair, and the style lasts for months if I choose. Absolutely love it!"

"I used the tinsel on myself and even put it in my grandma's hair at the nursing home. She felt so sassy and received lots of compliments!"

"My daughter is still enjoying this product! She loved it right from the start, and it adds a nice touch to her hair."

“I highly recommend using 2-3 strands of glitter hair for more visibility. It's really nice but make sure to flat iron your hair before applying! The glitter strands are plastic; they don't tangle but can break easily. I suggest avoiding hard brushing, but it should last all day. It's straightforward to use and enhances my look beautifully!”

“We love using this hair tinsel to change up our daughter's hairstyles! It comes with a tool for a more permanent fix, but we prefer a temporary approach with hair ties for styles like buns or bubble braids. The tinsel is soft, the colors are vivid, and we even store it on a hanger for reuse. Sometimes it tangles, but I can easily comb it out. Overall, it's just a fun addition!”

“My daughter, who is 10, absolutely loved this! However, I found it a bit tricky to braid in. It tends to slip a lot, even when she's sitting still. If you're using it on a younger child, it could be a bit challenging to manage while braiding.”
