This weekend will be filled with sparklers and parties of all kinds. The major summer holiday weekend here in the US brings with it many chances to join in and celebrate. Sprinkle your hair with a bit of glitter and you will shimmer from poolside to firework display, enabling you to look festive and much more stylish than a flag t-shirt will allow.
The recreation on this style is so beautifully simple: Purchase a tube of glitter (ours was under $1). Pull your hair up so the glitter will have something solid to stick to. Spray a good amount of hairspray over your head and gently tap the glitter out over the entirety of your do. Pretty, festive and washable… everything summer should be.

PS. Wouldn’t this look also be pretty for an evening wedding worn with a subtle summer dress!?!
blessings.
That’s such a beautiful idea. I love it!
This is so pretty, and I’d totally do this for my wedding!!
So festive and pretty! Much better than wearing sequins.
i’m totally doing this! i’m going to spend the 4th w/ a bunch of my cousins (ages 12 to 27) and this would be so much fun for us to do together.
also, i’m impressed that you were able to get the glitter to show up in photos. i always have trouble getting it to show.
Ohh, I bet the younger girls would just love the process:) And the glitter showed much better against the teal wall than a white one, try bright color behind you next time you try to capture it.
