Advice:

~Me and my friends did this and we curled our hair in little ringlets and sprayed it with silver glitter...it looked very cute!

~We spray painted them rather than use regular paint and it worked out really nicely because we sort of swirled the paints together.

~We wore them to school and we had to take them off to sit in every class, so if you find that annoying, I don't recommend this for school!
