How to Keep a Tiara in the Hair

Sometimes you just have to wear a tiara.

Even princesses don't wear tiaras on a daily basis, which makes it unlikely you wear one regularly either. However, there are occasions that call for a tiara. If you are a dancer, dressing up for Halloween or wearing a tiara on your wedding day you have to think about how you plan on keeping that tiara in place for the duration of its wear. Not all tiaras are made equally and yours may or may not come with hair combs that help secure it in place. Before you don your tiara you need to figure out how to keep it in your hair.

Things You'll Need

• Bobby pins

Instructions

1. Style your hair. Once the tiara is in your hair it is difficult to style around it, which means you want to wait until your hair is done to put it in.

2. Place the tiara where you want it in your hair. If the tiara has combs on the ends you need to place them securely in your hair style so they stay in place.

3. Use bobby pins a similar shade to your hair to secure the tiara in place. Put pins on the arms of the tiara and on the base of the tiara itself to keep it in place. Use as many or as few as you see fit, depending on the fit of the tiara and the style of your hair. The tiara should feel completely secure when you’ve used enough bobby pins.

Tips & Warnings

• Take your tiara to your stylist and have her affix it to your hair.
