Olen Gold Hair Jewelry for Braids, 25 Pcs Cuffs, Rings, Charms

What's in this hair jewelry set for braids?

This hair jewelry for braids comes as 25 gold-tone pieces: 20 filigree cuffs, 2 pearl rings, and three charms, a butterfly, a star and a moon. The pieces are plated alloy, a soft metal you can shape with your fingers. It's sized as an accent set, with enough pieces to put shine on the braids that frame your face or show in photos rather than to cover a full head.

How do you put hair cuffs on braids?

1. Gently open a cuff with your fingers, just wide enough to fit around the braid.
2. Slide it onto the braid or loc where you want it.
3. Press it closed until it holds snugly without crushing the hair.

Open and close each cuff gently, and avoid bending the same spot back and forth many times, because repeated sharp bends weaken soft metal. Our step-by-step guide to hair cuffs and charms on braids and locs covers spacing and how to slide pieces off without snagging.

Which hairstyles does it work with?

Box braids, locs, twists, dreadlocks and other protective styles. Because each cuff closes by pressure rather than at a fixed size, it adjusts to a range of braid widths. We don't publish an inner diameter, so test one piece first on very thick locs or jumbo braids.

When would you wear it?

Weddings, concerts, festivals, birthday parties, prom photos, a fresh salon style or an ordinary weekday. Gold accents show up best on the braids nearest your face and on the ends that move when you turn your head. If you only have a few pieces left after a big event, a single cuff and a charm on one front braid still reads as finished.

Who is this set not for?

• Anyone wanting a bulk organizer. This is 25 pieces in a small pack, not hair beads in a storage box.
• People looking for extensions or piercing jewelry. These are decorative pieces that close around the hair, nothing more.
• Young children. The pieces are small, so keep them out of reach of kids who might put them in their mouths.

Care and storage

Keep the plated pieces dry. Take them out before washing your hair or swimming, and let any damp pieces dry fully before you put them away. Store them in a small pouch or box so the cuffs don't get bent or lost. For other small, useful accessories, browse our home and everyday finds.
