Not so basic braids!

Even though the main focus on the runway is the clothing, the hairstyles that are chosen and what they represent is equally important. Creative braiding was everywhere at SS17 Fashion Week! Messy fishtails and braided up-dos have grown in popularity over the years through being festival and wedding go-to’s. But more and more we’re seeing them being incorporated into everyday hair styling. 

One of the reasons, if not the main reason, our clients want hair extensions is to lift limitations you have when it comes to styling. If you have short hair, you’re extremely limited, if your hair is fine, certain styles can look dull and lifeless.

Luckily our super discreet methods allow you to get creative where others may not. We love to style hair extensions, they respond so well to styling and hold for much longer than your natural hair would, creating that ‘just messy enough’ vibe after a day or two.

At Vixen & Blush we love trend hunting and keeping up, so we’re starting to dabble into braid styling to prepare for the summer. The above is a little snippet of what we’ve been up to lately!

Here are our top tips for styling your extensions:

• You must not tie your hair up into a high ponytail, top knot or high bun. Only low styles.
• Use any heat styling tools – we advise using big barrel curling wands!
• Avoid salon blow-dries, these can loosen hair extensions. 
• Spray hairspray onto a brush, comb through. Hair extensions hold a style for a long time, making an effort to style your hair when you wash it means your hair extensions will look good always.
