If you’re a fan of changing your look, you probably have a collection of natural hair extensions of different colours and lengths. At some point, however, you may run out of ideas on the other ways you can use your older ones. They’ve served you well by providing you with lush, voluminous hair for months, and you can always try new hairstyles to breathe new life into them.
Luckily, there are tons of stylish ways to make the most out of your natural hair extensions, whether new or old. Here are four styles to try:
1. Messy Hair Bun
Messy hair buns are tricky. They’re made to look effortless, but in reality, they require careful maneuvering to attain the perfect arrangement of hair that looks messy yet stylish. Fortunately, you can create your own artfully messy hair bun with your old hair extensions, and it won’t take long, either!
All you need is a hair doughnut and your hair extensions, which you’ll wrap around to come up with a thick, lush bun. Then, use glue or pins to fix the underside of the doughnut and keep it in place. You can also put it over a ponytail and wrap your locks around the top to add even more thickness. To add an undone look, backcomb your hair and carefully pull out random strands of hair. Ta-da! You’ve got your artfully messy bun that looks deliciously voluminous.
2. Clip-in Braids
If you’d like to add definition and texture to your hair right away, clip-in braids are the way to go. The best part is that they’re simple to make, as you just need to take your old clip-in hair extensions and braid them. Then, clip them into your hair to achieve your desired look, whether it’s a boho-chic look or something more romantic. It will look like you’ve put hours into your look, but it only took a few minutes!
Another advantage of this hairstyle is that it works with all hair colours. If you have ombre or balayage clip-ins, it’ll create an effortless beachy vibe, taking your overall look to the next level.
3. Clip-in Fringe
Lots of women decide to get bangs when they’re bored, but some of them end up regretting the decision, especially if they do it themselves. If you’ve been curious about it and got any weft extensions, you can try it out without making drastic changes to your hairstyle.
Weft extensions make for perfect clip-in fringes. All you have to do is clip the weft into the front of your hair, where you’d find a fringe, and then cut it until you’ve gotten your desired fringe shape. If you aren’t confident enough to snip your fringe, take it to a hairdresser, who will expertly chop it for you. You’ll have a fringe that will never hit an awkward growing out stage, which you can take off whenever you’d like to go back to your old look.
4. Braided Hairband
Braided hairbands are shrouded in mystery. They look deceptively simple while requiring a certain length of hair to pull off perfectly. The good news is that you can make a braided crown with your natural hair extensions, allowing you to achieve the look in a few minutes without having to re-braid over and over again.
Take your hair extensions and secure each end with a bobble. Then, use clips to secure the ends at the nape of your neck. Add some clips around the crown to secure the braid, and you now have your braided hairband.
