Wedding Hairstyles – Our Favourite Looks + Wedding Prep Tips

Whether you want a classic elegant look or Hollywood glam for your wedding day, we explore our favourite wedding hairstyles. ZALA Hair extensions can really make your wedding hair unforgettable. Whether they are for your whole bridal party, or just for you, we do think adding extra length and volume to your hair can enhance your look on your special day.

Each member of the Bridal Party are wearing ZALA Hair Extensions

Chignon:

A Chignon is a classic French hair style which many brides choose to wear on their special day. This is an elegant style, and one of the more popular wedding hairstyles out there. A Chignon is a knot or coil which sits at the nape of the neck. Compliment this look with a tiara or crown for a nice sparkle!

To achieve this wedding hairstyle we would recommend adding volume to your chignon with our ZALA Clip in Extension Range Or our Clip in Balayage Range.

Handy Tip: Cover the ends of the crown or tiara with cotton to prevent headaches.

Chignon Wedding Hairstyle can be achieved with our Balayage Clip in Hair Extensions

Flower Crown Braid:

Inspired by the Elizabethan Era, this classic Flower Crown Braid is complimented by flowers in the hair. This wedding hairstyle is an modern twist of a classic elegant up-do.

Handy tip: Keep your flowers in the fridge before your special day to ensure they stay fresh for longer and don’t bruise. We recommend Baby’s Breath and Orchids.

Highlighted Braid with Flowers:

Using highlighted extensions will allow you to add depth to your natural hair by instantly adding a variety of shades to your wedding hairstyle. This is also great as it means you don’t have to bleach your natural hair before the wedding!

Handy tip: Use decorative clips such as these satin flower clips to decorate your hair

Add depth to your hair with our Balayage Clip In Extensions or Highlighted Extensions

Hollywood finger waves:

A timeless look! Hollywood finger waves can be achieved by curling your hair and brushing through with a fine tooth comb. This is a popular wedding hairstyle loved by many!

We recommend our ZALA Quadlux Quadweft Extensions in 20 Inch to achieve this look to add length and thickness to your wedding hairstyle.

Handy Tip: Curl your ZALA extensions the day before and pin them to secure the curl. Use hairspray to ensure they keep hold. Once applied, brush out the curl.

Handy Tips for your special hair day:

Here at ZALA, we are specialists in ensuring our brides-to-be are prepared for their special day.

Tip #1: Prepare and practise!!!

Be sure to purchase your extensions well in advance so your hair dresser can do a run through hair style to ensure you are happy with how your hair will be on the day.

Tip #2: Drink plenty of water for the weeks coming up to your wedding. This will encourage collagen production and flush your body of any toxins ensuring your hair, skin and nails are flawless for your big day.

Tip #3: Keep plenty of bobby pins, hair spray and combs on hand for you and your guests to ensure everyone looks flawless on your special day.

Tip #4: Think ahead for your Honeymoon! Our Protect Me Case is a perfect addition for brides who will be jet setting to their honeymoon following the wedding! Keep your clip in extensions safe and tidy to enjoy long thick hair for your honeymoon.

Tip #5: Enjoy your special day!

It’s really easy to stress out on the day of your wedding, but just remember that it will fly! Be sure to have fun with your guests and definitely drink the champagne!

Space Buns – Coachella Hairstyle | ZALA Hair Extensions

Coachella – the most anticipated festival of the year is almost here! So, to have your locks sorted, we’ve created this short series of festival hairstyles using ZALA Hair Extensions. Today’s look is these super cute space buns which are sure to get you mistaken for a celeb at any festival. Read on for our full tutorial on the look!

space buns

SPACE BUNS – COACHELLA HAIRSTYLE

YOU’LL NEED:

Hair Extensions – we’re using none other than our fave ZALA Quadweft Clip In Hair Extensions. Our babe Madeleine wear’s a 20 inch Ice Queen Platinum Blonde #60 weft for serious platinum hair goals.
Curling Wand – our go to is the ZALA Cosmo Wand 28mm attachment
Hair elastics and bobby pins, of course!

HOW TO GET THE LOOK:

First things first, apply your hair extensions! Hair extensions are our absolute essential festival hair accessory – in particular, ZALA Quadlux Clip In Hair Extensions. Being 100% human hair, quad wefted and extra thick from top to bottom, ZALA hair adds all the volume you need and can be styled just like your natural hair to achieve your perfect festival tresses.
Once your hair extensions have been applied, it’s time to add some boho curls! Our go-to for styling hair extensions is the ZALA Cosmo Wand. For a super textured look, we used the 28mm attachment and finger combed the hair once styled to loosen the curls.
Next up, space buns! Starting with your hair in a centre part, create two small ponytails on either side of the crown of your head.
Once your ponytails are secure, wrap the hair around itself halfway and pin in place, leaving out the ends. Play around with the shape until both sides are even and then is secured with a few extra bobby pins.
Then, take a small piece of hair from one side of your hair and create a fishtail braid. If you’re not familiar with the fishtail technique, split the hair into two sections and take small pieces from either side over and into the middle. Continue all the way down and secure in place with an elastic.
Finish the look by loosening the braid for added texture and volume. And your space buns festival look is complete! Such an easy, fun festival hairstyle! Don’t forget to check out the full tutorial below.

How to Remove Tape In Hair Extensions

Let’s talk how to remove tape in hair extensions! We love tape extensions at ZALA for so many reasons – in particular, how easy they are to remove without any damage to your natural hair. Want to know how? Read on for our full guide, video tutorial as well as important tips & tricks.

how to remove tape in hair extensions

HOW TO REMOVE TAPE IN HAIR EXTENSIONS

After around 6-8 weeks of wear, you’ll notice the tapes will have moved down a few centimetres due to the growth of your natural hair 🙂 It’s important to remove and re-apply your tapes so that you prolong their lifespan and get the best results. You will need:

Tape adhesive solvent – ZALA solvent is the only solvent we recommend to remove tape hair extensions.
Sectioning clips
Tail comb – this is optional, but can come in handy for separating pieces.

The BEST solvent for removing your tape hair extensions!

Start by sectioning off your hair to locate the tape pieces.
Spray a generous amount of ZALA solvent directly onto the tape tabs and let this sit for at least 1-2 minutes.
Then, use your fingers to carefully separate the tape pieces. Keep applying solvent until the tapes come apart easily and slide right out of your hair. This is super important to ensure all pieces are safely removed without any damage 🙂
Sandwich both pieces together and set aside before repeating this method on the rest of your extensions.
Once all pieces have been removed, give your natural hair and the extensions a good shampoo & condition to remove any leftover adhesive and rinse out all solvent. Please note: as ZALA solvent is oil based, it may take 2-3 shampoo’s before all solvent is removed.

And you’re done! You’re hair extensions are now ready to be re-applied. Did you know, you can re-use your ZALA tape hair extensions 3-4 times? Yep! We have a full guide on exactly how:

Must Have Products for Hair Extensions

So, you’ve purchased a new set of soft & silky ZALA’s and want to get the most mileage out of your hair extensions? Look no further! We’ve put together a full guide on our must have products for hair extensions. Read on for everything you need to care for your extensions and ensure they last as long as possble!

Must Have Products for Hair Extensions

SOFT BRISTLED BRUSH

First things first, detangling with the correct brush is vital! For clip ins, you’re going to want to opt for a soft-bristled brush with plenty of flexibility. Our holy-grail hair brush is the ZALA Tangle Tamer which is gentle on your locks and prevents shedding & snagging.

LOOP BRUSH

If you’ve got tape hair extensions, a loop brush is for you! As the name suggests, this brush has looped bristles which are super gentle when detangling. A loop brush is a game changer for tape hair extensions to ensure no pulling or tugging on the bonds.

HAIR EXTENSION CASE & HANGER

It’s super important to protect your hair extensions when they’re not being worn! This is our top tip for maintaining their condition and keeping them soft & silky for as long as possible. The ZALA Protect Me Bag is on our absolute vital list for must have products for hair extensions. Not only does the protective case guard your extensions from humidity and dust, the hanger secure all pieces in place and acts as an extra pair of hands when curling and styling your extensions.

SILK PILLOW CASE

For tape hair extensions users, it might be worth switching up your pillow case! Although braiding your locks before bed helps to avoid knots and tangles, a silk pillow case will be sure say goodbye to bed hair. Silk pillow cases do wonders for tape hair extensions, elimanating any pulling and tugging throughout the night which prevents damage over time. This mean’s they’re perfect to maintain the condition of your luxury locks!

SULFATE & PARABEN FREE PRODUCTS

Last but certainly not least, sulfate & paraben free products are a must! We always recommend high quality shampoo and conditioner, free of ingredients such as sulfate and parabens which can be extremely drying on your extensions over time.
