Kate looked like a princess and everyone was finally getting a glimpse of Duchess Kate’s wedding gown, makeup (word is, she did it herself!) and of course – her hair!
It is reported that longtime hairstylist James Pryce (of the Richard Ward Salon) did not use extensions to create Kate’s look – it was all her own beautiful hair! But not all of us are blessed with the hair of a Royal, but you can easily get the look! Here are some easy to do tips..
To start, select an extension method that works best for you: If you want to get-the-look of the Duchess for just a day or for a big event, opt for a non-committal extension system such as Hairdo Clip-In Extensions.
They are so easy and look great!
Or, if you want an option to last a while, check out Great Lengths Human Hair Extensions at a certified fine salon, which can last up to 4 months.
If you opt for a clip-in faux extention, wash and blow dry hair straight using a smoothing serum to fight flyaways. Then, try Hairdo Clip-In 20” Extension ($99: QVC.com). This stylable extension instantly bumps up hair with added length and über volume.
Next, wrap 2-inch sections of hair around a 1 ½ inch barreled curling iron and repeat over the entire head. Yes, you can curl them! Just be sure to use a lower setting for heat.
Once complete, section hair from ear to ear to create a “demi” (or half-up) chignon. Wrap the chignon with the Hairdo Style-A-Do ($19: QVC.com) that wraps around hair and will create an updo in an instant – without using a single hair pin to keep it in place. Lastly, using your fingers to loosely pull the curls out so they look more natural.
If you prefer a more permanent option, visit www.greatlengthsusa.com to find a certified salon and stylist near you. Since Great Lengths Extensions uses only 100% human hair, you can follow these very same steps to achieve this look!
You will look like a princess yourself and maybe find your own prince!
