AMAZING UPDOS
Bring the updo from night to day with effortlessly chic styles that add polish to your everyday look. Try a side braid, ponytail or bun for classy va-va-voom!
PRETTY PLAIT
Hey there, red-carpet diva! Warm brown strands are gathered to one side and braided to create a sweet and sexy profile, while voluminous side bangs complete the snip.
Get the look: Natural strands are shampooed, conditioned and blow-dried. Then, 12″, 16″ and 18″ pre-shaded extensions are sewn in, starting at the nape, leaving Natural hair out at the crown and sides. Blonde-shaded extensions act as highlights and added into the top.
FEATHERED PONY
Long chocolate tresses are pulled to one side and secured in a partial ponytail, leaving ends free for a free spirited take on the classic updo.
Get the look: Natural strands are shampooed and conditioned before being molded. Then, using 12″ and 14″ Remy extensions in a medium brown color, a Quick Weave is bonded in starting at the nape moving toward the crown, which is closed in a circular pattern.
RETRO GLAM
Midnight-shaded tresses are fashioned into an old-school pouf and side braid for a silhouette that’s on the front page of fashion! Copper highlights complete the look.
Get the look: Prior to styling, hair is shampooed and conditioned. Smooth strands are parted into two sections, and crown lengths are shaped over a foam piece to create a retro-glam pouf. Longer tresses at the back are secured and braided at the nape.
I am looking for a hairstyle to wear. I am getting married and I am looking for a curly or wavy style hair-do.

Hi Schenikia: There are many factors that may contribute to hair loss including poor diet, bad haircare habits, genetics and stress to name a few. Make sure your body and hair are getting the nutrients they need to sustain growth. Also, consult your stylist and ask if there are any additional conditioning treatments you can try to infuse your hair with moisture.
