Glitter for hair, a temporary hair adornment consisting of fine, reflective particles, is commonly used to add sparkle and glamour to hairstyles. Popularized in the late 1990s, it has become a staple for festivals, special occasions, and everyday fashion.
Its versatility extends beyond aesthetics; glitter for hair has also been known to enhance texture and volume. Historically, similar products, such as hair powder and metal leaf, were used in ancient Egypt and Japan to achieve similar effects.
