This holiday season, one of the best ways you can change up your look is by adding an attractive hair extension. Hair extensions can add height, length, volume or color, and can be styled to flatter every facial shape. Whether you’re aiming for cool and casual, sleek and sophisticated or vintage Hollywood glamour, hair extensions can help you create the perfect look in an instant, without having to deal with rollers and curling irons.
To get you started, here are four fabulous hairstyles that you can create in a breeze, with a little help from hair extensions.
Haute Couture Half-Up
One of today’s trendiest looks is the half-up, also called the half-up, half-down [1] hairstyle. A half-up involves fastening part of the hair up, while the rest cascades down naturally. Using clips, hair ties or hairpins, you can bring up your hair in the front, on the sides or in the back — whatever suits your look and your face shape. You can augment your updo with a twisted or braided extension or with a classic bun. For added drama, you can augment the half that hangs down with a dazzling fall to add length, shape and volume.
Cascading Waves
Want glorious waves without having to deal with hot rollers? In just a few seconds, you can clip on a glamorous fall in the back to add a cascade of alluring waves to your hair. Or, try clipping a hair extension to one side for a fascinating, asymmetrical look. Many hair extensions can be styled with traditional curlers, but if you don’t want to bother with styling, you can choose an extension that’s already waved and ready to go.
Versatile Braids
Nothing beats the versatility of braids. Depending on the style, a braided hair extension can help you give rein to a burst of holiday creativity, so you can dress down or dress up your look in minutes. For an elegant regal touch, try placing a braided circlet directly on top of your head like a royal coronet or clip on a semi-circle of braids to frame your face. For festive flair, braid your extensions with strands of silvery Christmas tree icicles or a mix of red, green and gold tinsel strands.
Captivating Colors
Anything goes these days when it comes to hair color and you can make the most of it this festive season by adding lots of eye-popping shades. Consider adding extensions in “rogue” colors like pink, cobalt blue or lavender, which you can clip in to blend with the rest of your hair. For a magical bit of holiday bling, try adding a twisted switch of hair or a sassy top knot in bright, Christmassy shades of red or green. You can find plenty of extensions in all kinds of styles, from long and straight to full and curly, in a variety of fun holiday shades.
No matter what your age or personal style, you’re sure to find a hair extension that can transform your looks from familiar to fabulous. And if you’re experiencing hair loss, be sure to contact Genesis II by clicking here.
