This headpiece is primarily designed for formal occasions and special events, rather than everyday wear, due to its elaborate design.

Troubleshooting

Headpiece feels unstable.

Ensure the aliceband is positioned correctly on your head. For added security, consider using a few bobby pins discreetly placed to anchor the aliceband to your hair.

Feathers or loops are slightly misshapen.

Gently adjust the feathers and loops with your fingers to restore their intended shape. Avoid excessive force. Store flat or in a protected box when not in use.

Aliceband is uncomfortable.

Try adjusting the position of the headpiece. Ensure it is not being pushed down too forcefully. If discomfort persists, it may indicate that this particular headpiece style is not the best fit for your head shape.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  2. Position the headpiece on your head. The covered aliceband should rest comfortably, similar to a headband.
  3. Adjust the placement to find the most flattering angle, typically slightly off-centre.

Care:

  • Store the headpiece in a hat box or a protected container to prevent dust and damage.

  • If minor dust accumulates, gently brush with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use water or cleaning solutions.
