Beauty fan shares innovative new way to style hair with fake tattoos… but trolls say it’ll last 15 seconds | The Sun

A SAVVY woman has revealed a new way to style hair using fake tattoos, but people aren’t convinced it’s a good idea.

Lulu took to her social media to share the hack she found as she initially posted a clip of someone using a fake tattoo on hair. 


She then decided to try the trick out herself and brought out two different designs to choose from. 

On one side of the raven-haired beauty, she held up a red and yellow floral design. 

While on the other, she held up an electric blue floral design with pink butterflies. 

Leaning towards the blue one, she then got to work brushing her hair to smooth out any of the knots.

She then removed all the packaging from the fake tattoo and placed it flat on her mane. 

Smoothing it over, she then used a hydration spray to wet the top of the plastic before going over it with a wet sponge. 

Repeating the process several times, she ensured it would stick to her hair seamlessly. 

She then removed the top to unveil the finished result, which showed how the floral design had transferred onto her hair.

While TikTok user @luluty_ appeared to love it, some people in the comments section were left unsure about it. 

“How are you going to brush your hair???” one person questioned. 

Another said: “Last about 15 seconds and the first hair flip [boom emoji]”.

A third posted: “good luck taking that out of your hair,” while a fourth added: “it started off as innovative but ended badly,” followed by a crying with laughter emoji. 

A certified colour educator at Elevate Hair, Brandie Devillier, told Bustle that the idea around using fake tattoos on hair started with Cardi B. 

Since then, the topic has exploded across TikTok, with her 2.7 billion views on the platform. 

All you need to do for the trick to work is to straighten your hair as the tattoo needs a “flat surface to adhere to”. 

According to the expert, the fake tattoo will stay in place until you next wash your hair with shampoo. 

Speaking to the publication, she said: “That’s what makes this trend even more fun… You can change it up all the time.”
