How To Step-By-Step Tutorial
Step 1: Apply Luxy Hair Extensions (coupon code: ALEXGABOURY):
1. Start by sectioning your hair just above ear height, and start with your four-clip weft.
2. Add the second four-clip weft directly on top of the first weft.
3. Section another layer of hair and clip in your second four-clip weft. This will add more volume and length, creating a fuller look.
4. Section your hair at temple height, and clip in the first three-clip weft.
5. Add the second three-clip weft directly on top of your first three-clip weft.
6. Clip in the two-clip wefts on either side of your head. This will help fill in the sides, giving the braid a blended and voluminous look.
