You
may have noticed that we’re pretty big fans of Lauren Conrad’s hair and
now we are loving her locks even more as she has changed her dip-dye
shade to a super bright pink! Lauren is no stranger to the dip-dye hair
trend as she has experimented with a few different shades in the past to
keep her hair bang-on-trend, but her new look is perhaps her boldest
yet!
For the final
part of her book signing, Lauren appeared with her hair in a super cute
curly high ponytail with the ends dip-dyed a bright pink. We loved the
high ponytail, which is also a huge hair trend for 2012, but we loved
the bubblegum pink locks even more! The shade worked really well with
the girly hairstyle and just looked awesome on Lauren Conrad’s hair!
Lauren
always seems to get it just right with hair trends, the ombre hair trend always looked incredible on her and Lauren's dip-dye attempts have always worked so
well too; her blue dip-dye and her multi-coloured style were awesome and
then she showcased peach tips, which were simply gorgeous, and now
she’s experimented with bright pink … which also looks incredible. We’re
very jealous Lauren!! If you fancy
introducing a touch of bright pink into your own life and if your hair
is a similar base shade to Lauren Conrad’s hair then you can dip-dye
your hair extensions to re-create Lauren’s fab new look!
Sadly,
the pink dip-dye isn’t permanent, but it’s psyched us up for what
Lauren will do with her hair next. We’re super excited to see more
dip-dye looks on Lauren Conrad’s hair and we’re sure she won’t
disappoint!
What do
you think of Lauren Conrad’s pink hair? We kinda wish it was here to
stay, but we can’t wait to see what she has lined up next!! What shade do
you think Lauren should go? Tell us in the comment box below or post a

Not
all of us are lucky enough to be blessed with a full head of healthy
thick hair, so this next blog post goes out to those less fortunate and
brings to life hair extensions for thin hair. It’s still super easy to
wear hair extensions to add sumptuous thickness for hair that’s a little
on the thin side.
Most
people are put off or fearful of wearing hair extensions if their hair
is thinning or they have very fine hair in fear that the little hair
they have will disappear. Well ladies, you can rest assured as clip in
hair extensions are, by far, your best option. No more damaging than
tying your hair back into a tight ponytail (which I’m sure we all do
whilst cleaning/ getting fit/ those days when you can’t be bothered
doing anything with you hair etc etc), clip in hair extensions allow you to
dramatically change your look within seconds. By clipping in some hair
extensions you can take your hair from frail to fab in a matter of
minutes, without harming a hair on your head! Whoop!
A
few little tips for hair extensions for thin hair, my fine-haired
troops, would be to firstly use a good quality conditioning treatment on
your own hair to build up its strength and try and restore some
healthiness back into your hair. Secondly,
it’s all about the fit! How you fit hair extensions for thin hair will
ultimately decipher the end look of your hair, so it’s important to fit
them correctly from the off. If you have had HeadKandy hair extensions
before you will have seen the hair care guide fitting instructions, for
those of you who haven’t, hit the fitting illustration tab on the left
side and you can see it there. Following our fitting guide will make it
even easier to fit your hair extensions to transform your locks.
Start
by sectioning your hair at the bottom of your head, so just above the nape
of your neck. Backcomb all of the hair left down, as this is what you
will be clipping the extensions onto. Once backcombed, lace with some
hairspray, leave to dry for 5 seconds or so, then clip away. :) Continue
this method to fit all of your hair extensions and your thin hair will
be transformed into thick mermaid-like locks.
Once
all of the extensions are in place, it’s time to style the top of your
hair to ensure it covers the clips of the extensions. This is simple,
all you have to do is simply backcomb this section too!! Start from the
back, backcomb, hairspray, leave hairspray to dry, then put the hair
where you want it (I always flick my backcombed hair forward or the
opposite way its meant to go so its upright and drys quicker!). Once the
back is done, move on to front and sides and voila! Your thin hair
becomes thicker covering the clips of your extensions so all together it
just looks like you have an A List hairdo....What MORE could a girl
want?! :)
Do
you have problems fitting your hair extensions? Or do you find it difficult to
wear hair extensions for thin hair? Let us know in the comment box

advice :) <3
Tulisa
has been making the headlines this week as speculation builds about
just who is returning for this year's X Factor panel, but overshadowing
this speculation was Tulisa’s hair and outfit choice for her first solo
performance at GAY club over the weekend.
Tulisa’s
performance at GAY was certainly one that got attention for all the
right reasons! Tulisa looked gorgeous in a very fitted, short, black and
white playsuit with reflective strip detail; we loved her sensible
footwear choice and we think that the pair of Adidas high-tops finished
off the look perfectly!
Tulisa’s
hair looked super thick, super glossy and absolutely stunning for her
performance. We’re almost positive that she had a little help from some
hair extensions to create the uber volume and super bouncy curls.
Tulisa’s black hair shade had a few flecks of a lighter brown running
throughout that helped Tulisa’s curls look defined.
To
re-create the super voluminous and super long look of Tulisa’s hair we
would recommend using 24-26” hair extensions and if you really wanted
to add some ooomph you could add in an extra quad weft! The style is
super easy to do using a large barrelled tong; be sure to backcomb your
hair at the roots when fitting your extensions to give plenty of root
lift!
Although
the full line up hasn’t been confirmed for the new series of X Factor,
Tulisa has hinted that she will be returning for the show. We’d love
Tulisa to return as we loved the intricate updo’s and different styles
she tried out during both the audition stages and live shows!
Are you
looking forward to Tulisa’s return to X Factor as much as we are? Who do
you think should be on the panel? Leave us a comment below or pop over
to the HeadKandy Facebook page to leave your comments there. :)
