Creative ways to wear your splash.
Stick-on mermaid scales, a dab of glitter gel, a row of butterfly clips — the cap is a canvas. Here are the easiest ways to turn one SquidnSplash cap into a hundred different looks.
Mermaid stickers and forehead jewels
The polyurethane cap is a perfect canvas for peel-and-stick fun. Kid-safe face jewels along the hairline and small mermaid-scale or starfish stickers across the crown instantly turn the cap into a full costume piece.
- ✦Use cosmetic-grade face jewels with body-safe adhesive
- ✦Stick-on designs pop off cleanly — no residue on the cap
- ✦Pair with a shell necklace for the full Ariel moment
See the cap come to life.
Stickers and clips are just the beginning. Hit play to see how the cap moves, swishes and shines once it is on — perfect inspiration before you raid the craft drawer.
- ✦Watch the play hair flow with every twirl and dive
- ✦Real kid, real cap — no edits, no filters
- ✦Tap play and steal a styling idea or two
One cap, a hundred looks.
Mix stickers, clips, accessories and props. Every idea below uses things you can grab from the craft aisle or the pool bag.
Add the sparkleA little dab of kid-safe cosmetic glitter gel on the cheeks, temples, and along the cap edge catches every photo. Think mermaid freckles — shimmery, not sticky.
- Reach for water-based cosmetic glitter — easy to rinse after the pool
- Blend a touch along the hairline where cap meets skin
- Finish with a clear lip gloss for full dewy-mermaid energy
Accessorize the play hairThe 30" play hair takes clips like real hair does. Try a row of mini butterfly clips, a silk bow at the ponytail, or two half-up sections pulled back with scrunchies.
- Half-up pigtails keep the cap line hidden on photo day
- Butterfly clips peek through the pink for a Y2K look
- A velvet bow at the nape keeps everything pool-ready
Pool accessoriesLayer on the pool-side accessories. Round sunglasses soften the look, skinny headbands sit neatly on top of the cap, and a terry visor pulls everything into a retro summer vibe.
- Skinny elastic headbands sit flat over the cap without pulling
- Round or heart-shaped kid sunglasses add instant personality
- A terry wristband doubles as a bracelet for the photos
Dress the partLean into the fantasy. A sequin mermaid skirt, a shell top, and a shimmer swim suit turn the cap into the centerpiece of a full dress-up. Bubbles and a blue backdrop complete the under-the-sea shot.
- Sequin fabrics catch sunlight beautifully in pool photos
- A bubble machine is the easiest "underwater" effect at home
- Try a shell tiara instead of a crown for birthday shoots
Make a splashThe cap is made for above-water splash play — lean into it. Pair with a unicorn float, a shell-shaped pool noodle, or an oversized shell raft for a scroll-stopping moment.
- Checkered or pastel floats photograph best against pink hair
- A metallic pool noodle doubles as a "mermaid scepter"
- Rinse the cap with fresh water after chlorine — no heat drying
What to have on hand.
