DIY Hair Extensions!

Hey girlies!
As I have promised, I have a post on how I made, yes made, my hair extensions! They were actually really easy to make, I was able to customize them to how I want them to fit on my head, and I did save some money too! So I you want to find out how I made them just keep reading!


So first off to make these you will need the following things:
- 100% Real Human Hair
- Snap Clips
- Thread
- Sewing Needle

I purchased the snap clips and hair at Sally's. I picked up 2 packs of 3 snap clips (depending on how wide your wefts will be will decide on how many clips you will need) and the hair was also purchased at Sally's. I got the color to match the brown low lights that I already have in my hair, since I only wanted them for length. I got the hair for about $85 CDN, and it was definitely worth it because you get soooo much hair, and the color matches perfectly!

Look at all that hair! And this is folded in 2!

To make the extensions:
- After carefully taking the hair out of the package, you want to decide what part of your hair you will want the extensions to fit to. Once you chose the spot you will take one end of the hair and measure it across the area of your hair where you want the extension to be.
- After measuring the area grab the part of the hair where you want it to end and remove it from your head, then you can fold it over so the hair is doubled. Once it is double, you can cut the hair.



- At this point you will need your needle and thread, you can start sewing the pieces of hair together.

- Once the hair is sewn together, take the snap clips and line them across the hair. On my wider weft I used 3 clips, and 2 clips on my smaller weft. When you decide how many clips you will need start sewing them onto the top of the hair. For this step make sure you sew over the clips 2-4 times so the clips dont fall off from the hair.



- Once you have finished sewing the clips to the weft, you are finished! There will be plenty of hair left to make many more wefts. I only made made 2 wefts and I still have a ton of hair left over!

This is what they look like on me! They match the color of the brown that I already have in my hair! 

 Hope this helps some of you girls! If you make some of these extensions make sure to comment below or tweet me a picture! Remember my twitter is @simplychicxox :)

Sally's Haul

Hi ladies!
On the weekend I went to Sally's to get a few different items. I haven't done a haul in a while so I thought why not do one now?!
So today I have a haul about what I bought last weekend.

Some of these items may look pretty random, but they're not!

First off, I bought some nice long hair! I've been wanting hair extensions for so long, but was always scared of ordering them online. So one day I came across a youtube video on a girl who made DIY hair extensions. I thought what a great idea because you get to customize the extensions to your hair. So while at Sally's I picked up some 100% human hair in the brand Sassy Beauty. The color of the hair I chose matches perfectly to the brown I have in my hair already. I was so amazed that it matched perfectly! (I will be posting on how I made my extensions!)

To make the extensions, I needed to buy some snap clips to be able to attach the hair to my head. So I picked up 2 packages of the Snap Clip brand snap clips.

Sticking to hair products, while there I also picked up a teasing comb. I have to admit that this one isnt the greatest, but it still gets the job done. It was also pretty inexpensive, so I cant complain. This comb is the Tool Structure 502400 teasing comb.

Another hair product I bought was the Manic Panic hair dye. The color is crazy hey?! I love it so much, and bought it especially for my graduation. The color of my banquet and dance dress is the exact same purple, so I thought I would want to color a few streaks in my hair to match my dress. The dye was super easy to use, and once I washed it out the color was so vibrant. I love it!

Lastly I bought DUO eyelash glue that I will also be needing to use for my grad. I am planning on wearing falsies and I have heard so many beauty gurus rave about this glue. So I cant wait to try this out!

And thats all I got while at Sally's. In the next few days I will post on how I made my DIY hair extensions with some photos of them as well!

Also I am currently editing a YouTube video on how I will be wearing my grad makeup, and it will also be up in the next few days. Cant wait for all you girls to see it!
