Not what I expected but works. [SEP] The salon charges $5 to $10 dollars to put these in your hair. So I purchased a kit online for $5 it included beads, pliers, and the hair thread. I just needed feathers so I purchased these believing it would be three sets of feathers. My mistake it was just three feathers. Frayed at the top making it difficult to thread through the bead. I did get them to work. They were shorter than I expected as well. More earring length than hair. But alas they have lasted for two weeks in my hair.. So not a total loss.
