    how do u attach it to the hair

    • @HeatherfishCreations
      @HeatherfishCreations  Před 7 lety +1

      florine rapley Hi there. :) You would slide the coil onto a braid, twist, dreadlock, or section of gathered hair like you would a regular bead. I also have a video addressing how to add beads to your braids or dreadlocks. Hope that helps! :)

  • @missaudiitv822
    @missaudiitv822 Před 6 lety

    Hi heather! Apologies if this is a off color question but how much would you retail one of these custom pieces for?

    • @HeatherfishCreations
      @HeatherfishCreations  Před 6 lety

      No worries! No harm at all. :) It will really just depend on the quality feathers you use, materials, and the time it takes to make. Based on my formula and materials, these typically retail for $22-$35 dollars each.

    Where do you get those long feathers?

    • @HeatherfishCreations
      @HeatherfishCreations  Před 6 lety

      I got them from a family farm... but for the life of me, I can't remember where. There are several cruelty free and naturally shed feather sources online though... you should have no trouble finding a good source on Etsy or Ebay. Sorry I can't be more helpful!

  • @untameddana4733
    @untameddana4733 Před 6 lety

    Where did you get your metal rods from?

    • @HeatherfishCreations
      @HeatherfishCreations  Před 6 lety +1

      Untamed Dana I don't remember exactly where I got them, but you should be able to find some if you Google "transfer punches". They sell various different sets in standard and metric.

    where did u get the feathers from?

    • @HeatherfishCreations
      @HeatherfishCreations  Před 7 lety +1

      The Parrot Feathers came from a rescue and sanctuary in my area(naturally shed feathers). They sell the shed feathers on ebay to provide food and care for the birds. The Peacock feathers are from a farm(also naturally shed). The Pheasant feathers were from a cruelty free source, though I bought them so long ago, I can't for the life of me remember where I got them... sorry I can't be more helpful in that regard. There are lots of sources all over the web for feathers like these if you are trying to find some. :)

      @@HeatherfishCreations the long ones are rooster feathers. If you do a search on feather hair extensions you can find them. I have gobs and gobs of them
