Step 1

Measure a piece of transite the length of your hair then double the length and cut.

Step 2

Tie your transite onto a bobby pin with a lark's head knot.
TIP: To make a lark’s head knot, fold your transite in half. Slide the fold through the back loop on your bobby pin; then grab the ends of the transite, bring them up and over the bobby pin. Thread the ends through the fold of your transite and pull to tighten the knot against the bobby pin.

Step 3

Add glue to two same-size crystals. Attach them, back to back, around your transite so the transite is running through the middle of your crystals. Repeat down each transite cord hanging down from your bobby pin. Let dry.

Step 4

Repeat Steps 1-3 for as many extensions you would like for your hair.
TIP: Top wear, fix your hair as desired and slide in your bobby pins as normal. Trim any excess cord.
