Alright, fashionistas! Summer is right around the corner, which means it’s time to shake up your style and prepare for sunny days and balmy nights. Summer is all about fun in the sun, beach trips, festivals, and those long, warm evenings that call for easy, breezy hairstyles. But let’s be real – summer heat can be brutal, and no one wants to fuss with a high-maintenance look when the sun’s out in full force!

Here are some effortless, fun, and fabulous hairstyles (with hair extension tips!) to keep you looking (and feeling) cool all season long.

1. The Classic Messy Bun – It Never Gets Old!

The messy bun is easy, cute, and takes just a few seconds to whip up. Its beauty is in the imperfections – it’s meant to be loose, soft, and a bit untamed, just like summer itself! If you have extensions, consider leaving a few pieces out for added volume around the bun for a beachy, undone vibe.

Pro Tip: Add face-framing strands and finish with a spritz of texturising spray for that just-left-the-beach look.

2. Braids – Festival Season Approved 🌻

Braids are summer hairstyle heroes, especially for those with extensions! Extensions allow you to create thicker, more intricate braids, adding length and volume to classic styles like French or fishtail braids. Braided pigtails are playful, while a single loose braid keeps it chic and relaxed.

Pro Tip: Weave in delicate flower clips or shells to your braid for extra bohemian flair.

3. Beach Waves – Because Who Doesn’t Want Mermaid Hair?

Whether you’re at the beach or not, beach waves scream summer. Extensions can help you achieve those enviable long, voluminous waves, even if you’re working with shorter hair. Just braid your damp hair with extensions in, sleep on it, and undo for soft waves.

Pro Tip: For extra volume, flip your head upside down and scrunch with mousse or texturising spray.

4. The Low Ponytail – A Touch of Glam ✨

The low ponytail is simple, chic, and oh-so-stylish. Extensions can add body and length, taking this look from simple to glamorous. Use a cute scrunchie or tie a ribbon around your ponytail for an elegant touch.

Pro Tip: Part your hair in the middle and keep it smooth for a sleek, sophisticated look.

5. The Half-Up, Half-Down – Best of Both Worlds 🌞

Can’t decide whether to leave your hair down or pull it up? The half-up, half-down style is perfect for balance. Extensions make it easier to add volume and length to both sections, giving you a fuller look.

Pro Tip: Try a half-up bun or twisted half-up style and secure with a summery barrette.

6. Scarf Styles – Make a Statement 🧣

Hair scarves are perfect for summer and add a splash of colour to any look. Wrap a scarf around your bun, tie it as a headband, or even weave it through a braid. If you’re wearing extensions, a scarf can help blend and secure the extensions while adding a trendy vibe. Pro

Tip: Choose light, breathable fabrics to stay comfy in the heat.

7. Pixie Cuts & Short Bobs – Bold & Carefree ✂️

For those committing to a shorter summer style, hair extensions are great for switching things up if you want added length occasionally. Clip-in extensions allow you to go from short to long in minutes, giving you a fun, flexible look.

Pro Tip: Use styling wax to add texture and keep it looking effortlessly stylish.

8. The Wet Look – Like You Just Stepped Out of the Ocean 🌊

The wet look is glamorous, modern, and easy to pull off. Use a gel or mousse on damp hair and slick it back. Extensions add length and volume for a striking look, especially for beachside dinners or night outs.

Pro Tip: Try a lightweight, non-crunchy gel to keep it looking sleek.

9. The High Ponytail – Sleek & Sassy 💃

A high ponytail shows off your collarbones and keeps hair off your neck. Extensions add length and thickness for that model-off-duty look. Wrap a small section around your hair tie to give it a polished finish.

Pro Tip: Extensions will add instant volume, so your ponytail will stay perky all day.

10. Butterfly Clips – The ‘90s are Back!

Butterfly clips add whimsy to any style, whether it’s braids, ponytails, or a half-up look. If you’re using extensions, clips can help hide any seams, keeping your look flawless while adding some retro fun.

Pro Tip: Choose pastel clips for a sweet vibe, or mix and match colours for a bolder look.

So there you have it – some of the trendiest summer hairstyles with extension tips to help you slay all season long! Summer hairstyles should be simple, fun, and flexible – just like the season. Whether you’re hitting the beach, going out for a night on the town, or lounging by the pool, these styles have you covered.

How are our Men's Hairpieces are attached using tape

Losing hair can be frustrating for many men.Fortunately, hair replacement wigs and toupees have come a long way in recent years. They are a great option to restore your hair, especially if you want to avoid the risks that come with surgery.  In this blog we'll be going through the process of attaching a men's hair replacement piece. Refer to the video below for the detailed process captured on video:    Step 1: Hair Template  Your custom template will be used as indication for where your hairpiece will sit.  Step 2: Shave The markings you created on the head using the template, will now be used as indication on where to clean shave on the head. Step 3: Cut Cut off any extra base, if needed. Step 4: Tape Tape the hairpiece using double sided tape. Step 6: Attach The now taped hairpiece will be attached to the clean shaven area on the man's head. Step 7: Measure Hands on the forehead can be used as a guide to make sure hairpiece is not placed too far or forawrd or too far back on head.  Step 8: Place The hairpiece will then be pressed firmly on the head to make sure it is secure. Step 8: Cut and Style  The hairpiece can then be cut and styled to the man's preference. It is recommended to cut and style after hairpiece is attached rather than prior. This is to reduce any errors in the desired final look. Step 9: Smile Now there's a big grin going from left to right as you look at yourself in the mirror with your new hairdo.  Attaching a men's hair replacement wig/toupee is a fairly clean and easy process. Remember to choose a piece that matches your hair colour and type, and make sure you took good care of it. You'll be looking your most confident self !

Our newest addition! The famous 'GENIUS WEFT'!

Our newest addition! The famous 'GENIUS WEFT'!

Our newest addition to our Weft Collection is the “Genius Weft”. It is the most premium style of weft in the hair extension market and serves to be the most preferred choice among stylists. With traditional wefts, the seams are a lot thicker, however they able to be cut. These wefts suit those that are wanting that extra thickness. Hand-Tied Weft Extensions come much thinner, so it’s easy to blend into your hair without and lumps and bumps! However, they cannot be cut, so they if they are too long, they will need to be folded over when installing. Good thing about our new Genius wefts, they are both thin AND can be cut along the seams! Making it practically invisible! Its customization abilities are why it’s such a flexible choice. The Genius Weft uses a new method of machine weaving, which allows the hair to be tightly weaved meaning no return hair! Return hair is something that is usually present in Hand-Tied Weft Extensions. For many people return hair isn’t too much of an issue, however people with sensitive scalp can be irritated by those few strands that come apart. This new machine weaving method ensures that the above doesn’t occur. Traditional wefts come much denser, not allowing for it to be stacked on top of another seamlessly or create colour blends. Hand Tied Wefts, come less dense allowing you to layer multiple wefts and create unique blends. Genius Weft allows you to have more density than the Hand Tied all while still giving you the ability to create unique colour blends and stack multiple wefts. Coming in 30+ colours, SHE Genius Weft is ready to have our stylists on chokehold!   PLEASE NOTE: We highly recommend to not allow the use of Olaplex on the band of the extensions as the active ingredients in Olaplex can break the band.
