70s Disco: Holiday Hair Tutorials
This year, you can recreate 3 gorgeous looks from our campaign video with our tutorials below. Inspired by 70s disco hairstyles, celebrity hairstylist Halley Brisker shows us how to perfect these looks at home. To achieve each style, we’ll be using our very own Seamless Clip In Hair Extensions in the shade Dark Auburn.
Bouncy Blowdry with Bevelled Ends and Retro Clips
This big, bouncy blowdry with soft, bevelled ends will have you channelling your inner diva. Perfect for adding glam to any festive occasion, this voluminous style creates a polished yet playful look for holiday celebrations, while also giving us the ultimate rockstar girlfriend hair!
Prepping the hair:
After washing the hair with our sulphate free shampoo and conditioner, detangle the hair thoroughly with our Detangling Hairbrush, before taking our Moisturising Silky Spray and spritzing it evenly on to damp hair.
Styling:
Once ready to dry, work through the blowout in medium sections using a large round natural bristle brush and remember to create height around the crown area.
Extension application:
Now for the clip in application. Take our Pintail Comb and begin to section the hair, starting from the nape of the neck and working upwards. Use your Pintail Comb to backcomb the hair at the root to keep your clip ins more secure, before gently clipping them in piece by piece.
Setting the look:
Once your extensions are clipped in, take a heated styling tool of your choice. We recommend using a large barrel curling tong to curl the hair, focusing the heat on the ends of the hair to ensure a bevelled finish. Wrap the hair around the fingers, mimicking the shape of a hair roller and secure to create pin curls. Repeat this with 8 to 10 sections of hair.
The Final Finish:
Gently unravel the pin curls, using your hands to shape the ends of the hair. For more height, gently tease around the crown area and add some medium hold hairspray. Finish by adding some cute hair slides on each side of the parting to channel a retro vibe. Equally, you can play with different coloured hair gems to add a little Christmas sparkle to your tresses.
And there you have it!
70s Blowout with Bangs and Flicks
Featuring voluminous waves, flicked ends and feathery bangs, this hairstyle takes inspiration from chic 70s hairstyles. Full of body and texture, our Remy hair extensions, whether they’re permanent hair extensions or clip ins, are ideal for adding length and volume to any look.
Prepping hair:
Once again, start by brushing and detangling the hair thoroughly with our detangling brush, before spritzing our silky spray evenly on damp hair. Once your spray has been applied, take some of our Alligator Clips and begin to blow dry using medium sections and a large round brush. Again focus on adding volume at the crown and in the parting by lifting the hair as you blow dry.
Extension application:
Now for the clip in application. Once the hair is dry, take our Pintail Comb and begin to section the hair, starting from the nape of the neck and working upwards. Use your Pintail Comb to backcomb the hair at the root to keep your clip ins more secure, before gently clipping them in piece by piece.
Setting The Look:
Now you’re ready to style. Take a medium barrel curling iron and wrap each section of the hair tightly around the tongs, remembering to ensure that you always work away from the face – this is key to achieve the retro flicks!
Again, around the front, begin to work away from the face, sizing down on your tong for a tighter movement. Add a set of medium sized Velcro rollers to make sure you lock in that movement on the t-zone which is found along the parting and down the hairline. Don’t forget the all-important bangs to make sure this has a real 70’s vibe!
The Final Finish:
Once the hair has cooled, pull out your rollers and give it a good shake and a brush around. Don’t be afraid to move this look around to find the best shape, for a looser look use our Wave Comb to soften the waves. To finish, add a little hairspray for extra hold.
Half Up Half Down with a Baby Beehive
A retro inspired half up, half down look with a baby beehive fit for a cocktail party! This style adds height and drama to the crown, while the soft curls and tousled fringe creates a sexy and sultry movement.
Prepping The Hair
Ensure your hair is freshly washed and detangled using our Deep Moisture Shampoo, Conditioner and brush. Blowout the hair with a medium sized round brush, adding volume to the roots as you go.
Extension application:
Now for the clip in application. Once the hair is dry, apply 3-4 sections of your seamless clip-in extensions to the back of the hair, avoid applying to the sides as the hair will be pulled back here during the styling process.
Setting The Look:
Work through the hair with a medium tong once all the extensions are applied to create movement and more body. Add a small Velcro roller to the fringe area to create some retro volume and height.
The Final Finish:
A great hack is to use a mini crimper around the crown area to create the perfect base for easy backcombing for your baby beehive. Once fully teased, shake the hair out and pin the height in to place with twists for added effect. Accessories are our favourite, which is why we chose a tortoiseshell slide to compliment this part of the final look.
And there you go – a little tousle of the fringe after the roller has cooled, and some texturizing spray to finish will complete this retro half up half down.
