The winter season is always full of exciting changes. The leaves begin to change to a beautiful vibrant color, the weather becomes brisk and cool, and we change our hair to the new chic and stylish trends. Here are the top winter hair trends. Everyone can achieve these styles with the help of Eye for Design hair extensions. If you have short hair or fine hair, hair extensions are an easy and quick way to help you achieve any look that you desire.
BRAIDS
Braids are the most diverse look of the season. They can go from ethereal, to rock, to Goth depending on the intricacy or placement of the braid. There are so many different ways to wear a braided hairstyle that it is impossible to run out of options. From the ethereal half up and half down fishtail braid to the simple but beautiful side plait, adding a braid to your look instantly gives it style.
DISHEVELED BUN
The Disheveled Bun is a different take on the classic ballerina bun. It’s an edgy more modern twist that offers no apologies. Instead of making the perfectly coiffed ballerina bun switch it up by creating a more haphazard look. Start with a sleek pulled back base and end it with a messy bun that has lots of volume and texture. You can also add flyaways and tendrils to the base and create a messy or perfectly sculpted braided top knot. Don’t be afraid to be a rebel and add edge to your look.
VOLUMINOUS AND CHIC
This looks gives homage to the strong and stylish look of the 60’s women. The bouffant has been modernized with a middle part and soft waves to give it a soft but strong look. This look is easy to recreate but will definitely make people stop and take notice of your personal style. For additional volume add Eye for Design hair extensions to your hair. And to keep your hair strong and healthy decrease the amount of teasing by using a volumizing powder (Schwarzkopf OSiS Dust It). If you must tease your hair use a soft to medium toothbrush to tease rather than a teasing brush. The bristles are softer and are gentler on the hair.
WAVES AND CURLS
Waterfall curls, Mermaid waves, ripple waves, soft loose waves, crimps, beachy body waves, tight curls. Texture is winter’s most feminine and fashion forward trend. Wear it with plenty of volume and a central part to tap into another one of this fall’s trends. Mix and match the textures to be daring and bold then finish the look with straight ends to give it a super modern feel. Add Eye for Design hair extensions to your hair to help your hair maintain the curls. Also protect your hair against heat by spraying your hair and extensions with heat protectant before using any heated curling tool.
POWER PONYTAIL
This isn’t your typical easy on the go ponytail. This season’s hot look has depth and style. It is reminiscent of the standard sleek pulled back pony, but that is where it ends because the tail end has all the power. Create an exaggerated pony tail that is full of volume and length then add different textures, waves, crimps, curls or patterns, braids, twists, loops to it to make the look more impactful. Hair extensions are often used to achieve these look.
