The hairwraps are suitable for children from 4 years old. If the child has very fine hair, attach a small clip or elastic to the hairwrap for extra hold.
The IBIZA Hairwraps need to be adjusted to the correct length, so the bottom micro ring may still be loose. Be gentle! It’s okay if the spring falls off because it needs to be removed anyway to shorten the wrap. Keep this in mind.
Use pliers without sharp teeth, as sharp edges can damage the threads. Test by squeezing firmly with the pliers at the loose threads at the bottom of the hairwrap. If the threads stay intact, the pliers are suitable.
Take a hair section that isn’t too thin. For fine hair, choose a slightly larger section to ensure the hairwrap holds well.
When closing the micro ring, make sure the natural hair and the hairwrap lie directly on top of each other or neatly side by side. If they form a V shape and you close the micro ring like that, the hairwrap may slip out — which is a shame.
Close the micro ring firmly.
Attach a loose (included) micro ring to the hair loop or hook needle. Slide this micro ring onto the same hair section as the hairwrap is attached to, then slide it upwards. Close the micro ring tightly.
If the hairwrap is attached to a thin hair section, pick up a small section of hair directly under the original one and combine them. Slide the micro ring onto this combined section, slide it up, and close tightly. This keeps the hairwrap securely in place.
After applying, you can shorten the hairwrap length. Remove the spring, slide the beads, charm, and micro ring upwards to the desired length. (The silicone ring inside the clamp may remain; this is fine and does not need to be replaced.) Reinsert the spring between the micro ring and clamp and close the clamp firmly. Make sure the spring points inward.
You can trim a part of the spring’s stem before reinserting it, especially for small children or if the stem is bent.
Don’t forget to trim any part of the spring’s stem that sticks out above the micro ring. This keeps the beads nicely aligned above the spring. You can also trim any excess hairwrap hanging down after shortening.
The hairwraps can be washed with the hair. When wet, the spring looks like a thin thread but will dry nicely.
Generally, the springs will come off before the hairwrap itself. The springs are more delicate and can be damaged during brushing or caught in zippers. Don’t cut the hairwrap too short; this way, especially for small children, they still have a beautiful hairwrap about as long as their hair.
When properly applied and maintained, an IBIZA Hairwrap can last for weeks. To remove it, simply open the micro rings with pliers or cut them with wire cutters.
