Jun 06, 2024

Your wedding day is fast approaching, and as a bride-to-be, you want everything to be perfect, especially your hair. If you're considering a do-it-yourself approach for your bridal hairstyle, Philocaly Clip-In Hair Extensions are your best ally. They offer versatility, ease of use, and the ability to transform your look without the commitment of permanent extensions.



Here are three step-by-step tutorials for stunning DIY bridal hairstyles using Philocaly Clip-Ins.

Romantic Loose Waves


Loose waves are a timeless bridal hairstyle that exudes romance and elegance. Here's how to achieve this look with Philocaly Clip-In Hair Extensions:


What You’ll Need:


Philocaly Clip-In Hair Extensions


Curling iron or wand


Heat protectant spray


Hairbrush


Light-hold hairspray


Sectioning clips


Steps:

Prep Your Hair


Start by washing and drying your hair. Apply a heat protectant spray to your natural hair and Philocaly extensions to protect them from heat damage.


Section Your Hair


Divide your hair into manageable sections using sectioning clips. Start from the bottom and work your way up.


Attach the Extensions


Starting from the nape of your neck, clip in the Philocaly extensions piece by piece. Ensure they are secure and blend well with your natural hair.

Curl Your Hair


Once all the extensions are in place, use a curling iron or wand to curl small sections of hair, including the extensions. Wrap the hair around the barrel, hold for about 10 seconds, and release.

Blend the Curls


Gently brush through the curls with your fingers or a wide-tooth comb to create soft, romantic waves.


Finish with Hairspray


Lightly spray your hair with a light-hold hairspray to keep the waves in place without making them stiff.

Additional Tips:

For a more natural look, alternate the direction of the curls. Let the curls cool completely before running your fingers through them to ensure they set properly.


Elegant Low Chignon


The low chignon is a classic bridal hairstyle that is both sophisticated and timeless. Here’s how you can create this elegant look with Philocaly Clip-Ins:


What You’ll Need:


Philocaly Clip-In Hair Extensions


Hair ties


Bobby pins


Hairbrush


Hair smoothing serum


Sectioning clips


Steps:

Smooth and Section Your Hair

Apply a hair smoothing serum to your natural hair to reduce frizz. Brush your hair to remove any tangles and section it horizontally.


Attach the Extensions


Clip in the Philocaly extensions, focusing on the lower sections of your head to add volume to your chignon.


Create a Low Ponytail


Gather all your hair, including the extensions, into a low ponytail at the nape of your neck and secure it with a hair tie.


Form the Chignon


Twist the ponytail into a bun shape and secure it with bobby pins. For added fullness, gently tug at sections of the bun to loosen it slightly.


Secure and Smooth


Use additional bobby pins to secure any loose strands and smooth out the hairstyle with a bit more smoothing serum.


Additional Tips:


For a more polished look, wrap a small section of hair around the base of the ponytail to hide the hair tie. Use a fine-tooth comb to smooth out any flyaways and ensure a sleek finish.


Boho Braid


A boho braid is perfect for a laid-back, outdoor wedding. It’s a versatile and stylish choice that works beautifully with Philocaly Clip-Ins. Here’s how to create a boho braid:


What You’ll Need:


Philocaly Clip-In Hair Extensions


Small hair elastics


Hairbrush


Texturizing spray


Sectioning clips


Steps:

Prep Your Hair


Spray your natural hair and the extensions with a texturizing spray to add grip and volume.


Clip in the Extensions


Section your hair and clip in the Philocaly extensions, concentrating on areas where you want more volume and length for the braid.


Start Braiding

Gather your hair to one side and start a loose, three-strand braid. For a more intricate look, you can try a fishtail braid or a Dutch braid.


Secure the Braid


Once you reach the end, secure the braid with a small elastic.


Loosen the Braid


Gently pull apart sections of the braid to give it a fuller, more relaxed appearance. This will enhance the boho look.


Final Touches


For an extra touch, weave in small flowers or a delicate ribbon through the braid.


Additional Tips:


Use a mirror to check the back of your head and ensure the braid looks even and balanced.


Apply a light mist of hairspray to keep the braid in place without making it too stiff.
