5 Easy and Natural Looking Hairstyles using Hair Extensions
Clip In Hair Extensions can be a fun and easy way to transform and update your hairstyle. Using clip in hair extensions and other hair extension pieces, you can create a wide range of natural looking hairstyles!
1. Voluminous, Full Ponytail
Using a teasing comb or hair brush, tease the top section and crown of your hair to add lift and volume. Pull hair back into a high pony and smooth hair over teased section and secure hair into a bun. Using the Pro Extensions Clip In Ponytail, secure ponytail over your bun following instructions.
2. Waterfall Braid
Apply your clip in hair extensions before braiding your hair. You may find that you need to apply the side wefts a little higher than normal in order to hide the wefts. A side part is your best option as it will help hide your clip in hair extensions. Once you have your extensions in place, head over to love Megan for a Waterfall Braid Tutorial!
3. Long and Tousled
Long, sexy, tousled waves are easy with hair extensions. Start by using your curling to wave your natural hair. Wrap sections of hair around the base of your curling iron and then gently brush the curls out to create a tousled look. Next, apply a set of wavy clip in hair extensions and blend with your natural hair. Apply a light mist of flexible hold hairspray and you’re done!

To get this look, start with a middle part. Section off front parts of your hair for face framing layers and use a frizz reduction cream. Tease at the back of the head and pull the rest back into a low ponytail. This should give you volume at the top, but a sleek look around the sides. Secure with a hair tie. Last, take a large barrel curling iron to the ponytail. If you have long, thick hair like Sofia, you can separate your hair into multiple parts and wrap around the barrel of the curling iron. For thinner or shorter hair, wrap the entire ponytail around the barrel at the ends for body without adding too much volume.

To create these sleek waves start with straight hair using a flat iron like the Karmin G3 Salon Pro Tourmaline Hair Straightener. Next use your flat iron to create waves to your liking, whether they be voluminous or slightly textured. Not sure hot to achieve this? Check out Youtube guru Kandee Johnson’s video for great instructions!
1. Your first step in creating a braided headband should be determining placement and size. Determine how far back you would like the band and how thick.
2. Take a section of hair from back behind your ear. Begin braiding this section somewhat tightly. For this style, you’ll be using your average braiding technique.
3. Attatch an elastic to the end of the braid when you determine its long enough to cover the visible area your headband will span.
4. You can then pin the braid into your own hair so its hidden. If you are leaving your hair down, secure at the back of the head hidden beneath your wavy hair. For an updo, secure your braided headband then hide the elastic as you pull your hair into a messy bun.
Voila! A beautiful, simple braided headband for any occasion!
