Mositure, Moisture and more moisture…hair extensions can dry out very quickly on holiday leaving your long flowing beach babe locks looking more like a beach bums dreadlocks!!!

Overstyling your hair extensions on holiday can dry your locks out fast. GHDs, curling wands and hairdryers are all quxik fixes but try avoid where possible. Hair extensions can look great when left to dry naturally, in particular if they are the body wave…if not you can also braid them which will create a gorgeous wave.

The Extensionators Secret Weapon!!!!!! – I absolutly love VO5 Micrle mist. I have been wearing extensions for over 15 years so trust me when I say this little bottle will come in very handy on holiday. Its in a cute wee white and pink bottle, it smells great and it dramatically restores the moisture in your hair extensions and overall just makes them so much easier to manage 🙂

My Top Holiday Tip!!!!! – When swimming always tie your hair in a low braid and tie a bobble at the end of the braid only!!!! Never tie it in a tight bun……I have seen the results of this and two hours later I managed to remove all the tangling!!!!

WaterFall Braid

Hi Girlies this months blog is about the water fall braid. I have seen lots of queries about how to do this, so I checked it out and it is so simple and a great everday look to glam your hair extensions up abit. You can either do it on yourself or get a friend to do it. It can be done straight across the head or diagonally…on straight or curly hair.

So let me explain…..its basically a French Plait, however when you come to the third part of the braid you leave the third strand hanging and pick up a bit of hair directly next to it and begin the sequence again…again on the third starnd leave a bit hanging.

I have attached a video also so you can get a better idea of how to this 🙂

Practical advice… How to fit your rollers Bouncy full hair! Velcros produce a soft curl and lift effect.

Best applied to dry blown hair, some people prefer the hair slightly damp for more curl we think best results are in dry hair which has been previously blown. They will secure and grip to the hair naturally however some prefer to use hair grips especially if you are sleeping in them. Hair spraying each section also helps for your curls to stay in. Some roller queens like to smooth the hair with straighteners before applying the roller for more effect and turning the ends under, this is not a must it can just help especially if you have naturally frizzy hair. Tail combs can tuck in any flyaway hairs. Velcros are easy to use for you or a friend to apply for you, the sleep in rollers are applied the same way as you would apply normal velcros and below is a link from you tube on how to apply velcros! Twenty rollers per set includes cute carry bag!!
