Styling hair

1. Style your hair

Start by styling your hair. Brush it out and part it down the middle.


Take a section of hair from one side of your face and twist it from the root to the end. 

Styling hair

Pull the twist towards the back of your head and secure it in place with a bobby pin.

2. Create your shell clips

In order to get the shells ready to add to your hairstyle you need to create a clip for each of them.


Take a hairpin and stick one end through the shell so it is at the end of the hairpin. 

Creating shell clips

Then twist the two sides of the hairpin together a couple of times to secure the shell to the hairpin.
