How to Use Chopsticks to Style Hair

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• Chopsticks

1. Purchase hair chopsticks at your beauty supply provider or salon. "Hair sticks" is another name for the chopsticks used to style hair.

2. Brush out all the knots and tangles from your hair. Smooth back the sides securely while you tightly twist the hair at the base of your hair line or neck up into a knot. The size knot or twist will depend upon the length and thickness of your hair.

3. Push 1 chopstick down through the hair knot being careful to weave it in and out, as it goes through to catch hair from your scalp area as well as the hair knot.

4. Take the other chopstick and push into your hair in the same manner, except starting from the other side.

Tips & Warnings

• You can even use actual chopsticks in your hair. They come in all sorts of wonderful colors, sizes and textures and might be right in your kitchen drawer.
