The Process

Step 1: Prep Your Extensions

Before you proceed to styling, ensure that your luxury clip-in extensions are brushed and detangled to avoid any difficulties in handling. Tangles can make the hair seem uneven, so it is worth spending a few minutes to comb your extension gently.


Step 2: Section Your Hair

Start by parting your hair just about the ears or slightly higher, to about an inch and a half above the ears. This section is a little higher than where one would normally install extensions for everyday use but because we are going to wear a ponytail, these placements will cover the extensions well.


Step 3: Clip in Your Extensions

For the first layer, clip in a six-inch weft from your set of Classic or Seamless Cashmere Hair Clip-in Extensions just above the section that was created in the previous step. The trick is to put it bit higher to make sure the extensions will not be seen when you pull your hair back.

Next, take a section from the hair directly at the top of the first weft and pull it up. This time, we will be applying two layers of the extensions to create more volume where it is needed most. Take a seven-inch weft and place it below your hair parting line, and place an eight-inch weft on top of that one. Double stacking works well to create even more volume on top of the head, which gives your ponytail a more believable look of thickness.


Step 4: Stylize Your Ponytail
After ensuring that your extensions are properly in place, gather your hair up into a ponytail and secure with a hairtie. To get maximum volume, pull at the ponytail a little to tighten and fluff so that the hair appears thicker and has more volume on the top. You can also pull out a few pieces that frame the face for a more natural look.

Final Touches
Smooth out any flyaways with hairspray, and tada! The end result is a gorgeous lush ponytail, perfect for turning heads! The great thing about this method is that it’s not just limited to a night out on the town, it can be used for those midnight moments when you want to add more body to your hair or for that extra boost of confidence in the work office. Cashmere Hair has you covered for every moment, because you deserve to feel confident.
