Hair Extension Inspiration: Chic Styles For Any Occasion

Hair extensions can open the door to a whole world of new styles that you might not have explored before. Whether you want to achieve the perfect beach waves or master the art of putting your hair up for a formal occasion, we can provide you with lessons at our Brentwood salon. Here are a few hair extension inspirations in the meantime! 

Cool party styles
The party season is gearing up, with Halloween, Bonfire Night and of course Christmas all starting to appear on the horizon. This is the perfect time to show off your hair extensions with some fun and glam styles. For a sophisticated look, pull your hair back into a slick high ponytail and let the extensions cascade elegantly down your back.

For a more laid back look that is also right on trend, soft beach waves will flatter any face shape and are easy to style with extensions. You can achieve the look either by twisting two strands together while your hair is damp, and then loosening it off and lightly spraying with a styling product, or by using a heated curling wand.

Everyday looks
For everyday styles when you want a practical yet polished look, a messy bun is a favourite for long haired girls. You can pile your hair on top of your head to add height, or go for a more casual low bun. Tease out some of the hair in the bun to create your desired level of messiness, and pull out a few sections at the front to frame your face. 

Alternatively, you could pull your hair into a simple low ponytail and wrap a section around the band for a chic twist. If you have a bit more time on your hands, you could use hair straighteners to achieve a super sleek and shiny look and wear your tresses long and loose. Add some shine serum for some extra gloss.

Wedding hair
If you are a bride to be, no doubt you will already be thinking about what to do with your hair on the big day. With hair extensions, you can achieve pretty much any look you want! Think about the type of wedding you are having; for example is it a formal occasion in a church, or a more unconventional venue?

Consider your dress and other accessories if you have already decided on these: for example, if you are wearing a strapless ball gown with a statement necklace, then you may want to show it off with a classic chignon or bun. Hair extensions will create extra volume for a more sophisticated effect. 

If your wedding will be a more bohemian or rustic affair, then you may wish to wear your hair in a half up, half down style or in soft loose waves. This can be achieved by wearing your hair in loose braids before the big day, or by using a heated curling wand.
