With thermometers nudging 30 degrees across the UK this weekend, it looks like summer is well and truly on its way. However, those of you with long hair extensions may want to get a bit creative to ensure you stay as cool as possible throughout the balmy months.
We know that plaits are a key trend this season, but not only do they keep you cool, they offer a low-maintenance way of keeping your extensions tangle-free, while you enjoy the festivals and festivities of the summer season.
Whether you have hair wefts or clip in extensions, there are many ways to wear plaits: you’re certainly not limited to just one at the back or draped across the shoulder. Celebrities like Sienna Miller and Anne Hathaway have been spotted channelling the “Heidi” look, wearing their plaits pinned on top of their head.
Or, if you fancy a more bohemian style, like Nicole Richie’s here, create two plaits either side of your parting and secure them in a messy bun, pinned just above the nape of your neck, to create a sweet and sexy look in a matter of minutes.
