Hair Extensions for Beginners

Well yes hair extensions! They can be very helpful when it comes to styling. It's actually very obvious why they're so important. The hair it's self is human, and of the best quality, so it's also very important to find a great quality hair extention clips. Why clips? Well they're the easiest to insert. I recommend HeadKandy extensions because the set comes with a lot of hair. Which is great if you want a real natural look.

I've learned all that in the Hair Extention for Beginners post from the amazing blog named WhishWhishWhish.

The colour is the least of the problem. You can always email the team and they would recommend you the colour that might fit you the best. So no worries about that. Insering them is very simple too, and even if you don't really get it this time, you can always check some videos. After some practice, if your hair colour is not completely matching the hair extensions colour, learn how to blend it all out! 

To put them in, you simply part your hair, clip up a section, backcomb at the roots slightly so the clips have something to grip, and clip away! There is a guide that comes with your extensions that tells you exactly where to put which section of hair, and each section is also numbered in the order you insert them too.

It all just takes a little practice. Do you use hair extensions?

Loose Floral Updo

Effortlessly romantic, this simple twist is easy, versatile, and irresistibly femminine. Wear it loose and tousled for a bohemian effect. Floral headbans like this one, are so beautiful and always welcome on weddings. Katie from Skunkboy blog did this hair tutorilal on Etsy, Bridal Beauty, and I must say that this combination with a loose twist bun goes perfect with the flowers. Try it out!

Gather the hair on the top of your hair (where you want the bump to be) snd tease it. Take the hair and smooth the top and gather the sides. Start twisting the section of the hair into a half bun. continue twisting to make a bun. Pin everything in place and add a touch of flowers, lace, bows or whatever you like! 

Lighten Hair At Home

So I have a little secret I love Cheryl! 

I try and copy her hair which changes all the time so its hard to keep up with her but I do love her hair so much! So when cheryl started spotting a light caramel brown I wanted to follow suit!



Unfortunately I have dark hair SO I wasn't sure if it would be possible to go that much lighter at home without making a MESS! 

I should also explain that I am CHEAP and I don't have the money to get it done professionally even though it would be easy to just get it done by a professionally.


I thought if I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna do it right and not too light too quickly so I slowly (and I mean slowly) dyed it lighter and lighter till I got it just right yay!

It took me the whole summer and it was great to have lighter hair because I now realise one thing - I DO NOT LIKE LIGHT HAIR ON ME! lol but it was fun!

 

  












                      But look at Cheryl now! Back to dark!! Yay I love this colour on her! 

Here is everything I used and did! 

Sineady!
