From classic updos to bohemian waves, here are some of the hottest hairstyles for summer weddings featuring hair extensions.
The Classic Updo with Hair Extensions
The classic updo has been a wedding staple for years, but it never gets old. Whether it's a sleek ballerina bun or a messy chignon, an updo is a sophisticated and elegant way to style your hair for a wedding. However, if your natural hair is on the shorter side or lacks volume, hair extensions can help you achieve that full, luscious look.
How to do it?
To create a classic updo with hair extensions, start by adding clip-in extensions for volume and length. Separate your hair into sections and tease the roots to create a voluminous base. Gather your hair into a ponytail at the crown of your head and secure it with an elastic band. Twist the ponytail into a bun and secure it with bobby pins. Use a hairspray to keep everything in place and add some shine.
Bohemian Waves with Hair Extensions
Bohemian waves are a popular choice for summer weddings, especially if you're going for a more relaxed and carefree look. With hair extensions, you can add extra length and volume to your hair to create those tousled, beachy waves. This style looks great with a flower crown or other bohemian-inspired hair accessories.
How to do it?
To create bohemian waves with hair extensions, start by adding clip-in extensions for extra length and volume.
