Lately on our days off we have been going into the Salon to play with each others hair and plan out Hair Classes. Last week we had a lot of fun with The Irresistible Me hair extensions and to keep it going I wanted to show y'all three different styles with braids. Lindsey began with giving me and everyday look of pigtail fishtails and leaving it messy. The second look we were channeling Princess Leia and also representing my fellow Aries by winding the braids up. This would work for everyday but it would be fabulous getting all dressed up. The third look she criss crossed the fishtails and pinned the ends under. I could see this being an edgy bridal/ bridesmaid updo, am I right? I prefer having extensions in when wearing braids down or in an updo just to achieve the illusion of having fuller hair.

We are working on more hair posts and just want some feedback, what do you want to see more of on MMBB?



FIX YO MOP /// How to Clip in Hair Extensions

Every girl wants to feel like a mermaid at some point right? Well, if you have been wanting to add length or volume to your mop, extensions are the perfect solution. It can be a huge commitment and if you have commitment issues that can be a problem. The great thing about Irresistible hair extensions is they are clip ins so there is no commitment! Boom! I already have long hair or at least I thought I did until I put these extensions on. The main reason I wanted to try these was to add a lot  more volume to my not so voluminous hair. This week I put them on in between clients and I just waited to see if anyone would notice that they were fake and you know what? No one did. I had a lot of guy clients say they never realized how long my hair actually was. A few clients from other stylists also commented on the length of my hair and asked how it was so healthy being this long. Mission accomplished. I felt like a mermaid and they matched my ombre perfectly.
