With our Brazilian Kinky Curly Hair, you can create elaborate hairstyles while protecting your own hair from the elements.
Let's check out these five fabulous ladies who are killing the kinky hairstyle game and get the tea on how to pull off the same styles.
Let’s Prep!
Before we begin, you want to prep your own hair to protect it as well as keep it healthy while you have in your hair extensions.
Depending on whether you try our tracks for a sew-in installation or clip-ins will determine the style of your hair underneath your extensions.
A general rule of thumb is always to wash, condition, and moisturize your hair before installing your extensions.
This process will ensure that your own hair gets the nutrients and moisture it needs while you are styling and profiling for these celebrity-inspired looks.
True beauty starts with healthy hair.
We'll dive more into hair prep as we go through each celebrity style. Remember, with extensions, you always want to take the utmost care of your own hair.
Lupita Nyong’o’s Ethereal Bun
Ms. Nyong'o can pull off any hairstyle, from bald beauty to Bantu knots.
And that is just digging into her hair repertoire. Her fashion sense is another article. But the perfect style to try from Lupita's hair closet is the kinky curly bun she wore at the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
This hairstyle is as simple as it is elegant. The hair is fashioned as a high-top bun full of hair and texture and adorned with a dainty pearl headband.
Follow these steps to achieve this other-worldly style:
Step #1
This style would be best with our clip-ins, but it is completely doable with a sew-in as well.
Lightly mist your hair with water and brush the hair gently to the top back of your head. Secure with a hair tie.
Step #2
Once the ponytail is in the place where you desire, tighten it and ensure that it is secure.
This step is essential to do before you begin the bun so that you do not feel like your hair is wobbling as you wear it.
Step #3
With a large bun sock or a thick old sock (with a hole cut at the bottom and rolled), loop the ponytail through.
Step #4
Begin wrapping the hair around the sock and folding the hair underneath the sock.
Be sure to have tons of bobby pins on hand to secure the hair along the way. Be patient at this step; it may take some time to get all of the hair secured.
Step #5
Finish the style with some hairspray to get rid of flyaways and add to that sleek look.
Step #6
Top off your style like Lupita with your favorite headband!
I love this style! A simple hairstyle that effortlessly makes you look regal and ready to take over the world! It is time to strut, Queen!
Tracee Ellis Ross’s Voluminous Curls
Arrayed in a shiny, bright red cutout dress on the red carpet, Tracee Ellis Ross' curls speak volumes at the 2017 American Music Awards.
As the always bold, playful, and ever-fabulous fashionista, Ross is unafraid to be herself and showcase those gorgeous curls courtesy of her pop-queen mother, Diana Ross. With our Brazilian Kinky Curly Bundles, you can let your inner confidence shine everywhere you go.
Here are a few tips to get your hair bouncing like Tracee:
Step #1
Brush out your extensions and lightly dampen them with a spray bottle full of water.
With your favorite curling product, apply a small amount all over your hair.
Step #2
Section your hair into one-inch sections.
Using large rollers, begin rolling each section from the ends to the roots.
Try to use a looser grip than usual to retain some of the kinky texture in the final style. Also, try using a few medium and small rollers for curl variety.
Step #3
Once you have completed rolling all of your hair, you can either sit under the dryer or air dry overnight.
When your hair is completely dry, gently remove each roller from your hair.
Step #4
Separate each curl into smaller ones for more volume.
Pick and primp until you get your desired look.
Step #5
Finish off this look with your favorite red lipstick (the perfect tool to bring out your inner diva), and take your day as if you were stepping onto the red carpet!
Cardi B’s Curly Blowout
Our favorite girlfriend-in-our-head, Cardi B, was killed at the 2018 Met Gala.
Not only was she fashionably showing off her baby bump with regal flair in the event's theme of Catholic church regalia, but her hair was large, billowing, and all-around fabulous!
Adorned with a Catholic-inspired headdress, Cari B's hair was nothing less than show-stopping.
With our Brazilian Kinky Curly Wigs, you can pull off a fantastic curly blowout that would make the Pope do a double take. Here's how:
Step #1
The tools you will need to achieve this look are a heat protectant, a blow dryer, and a small amount of oil.
Step #2
First, begin by applying your favorite heat protectant all over your hair.
Anytime you are using heat on your hair and even on your human hair extensions, you want to ensure the health and lifespan of the hair.
Heat protectant prevents irreversible damage to your hair, and some brands deposit nutrients into it.
Step #3
With your blow dryer on medium heat, begin running the blow dryer over small to medium sections of your hair.
The comb extension of your blow dryer is best; however, you can always use a brush and chase the hair.
Try your best to minimize the number of passes you'll do. You should already start to see the volume!
Step #4
Once you have blown out every section of your hair, add a dime-sized amount of your favorite oil all over your hair for that Met Gala shine.
To preserve this look for a few days, simply braid your hair in large sections at night.
When you wake up in the morning, merely fluff your hair and go. Who says you can't wake up like this?
Those are the simple steps to get it poppin' like Cardi B's blowout. Now, you are ready to go from the rap battle to the red carpet in no time.
SZA’s Sizzling Waves
A style chameleon in her own right, SZA can rock trends for a Coachella festival, dawn a gown and crown, and ignite any formal event.
Of course, what drives us crazy is that no matter the event, you can bet that SZA's hair is on point.
At this year's Grammy Awards, SZA strutted on the red carpet adorned in a light blue Atelier Versace FW17 dress that flowed and moved effortlessly.
The dress played the supporting role against her wavy tresses that glided down to her waist.
You do not have to lose CTRL; we are going to give you the best way you can rock this free and formal style.
Step #1
Begin this style by lightly misting your hair so that it is damp but not soaked.
The more water you add, the more your hair will be weighed down.
We want the waves and yet the feather-like volume as well.
Step #2
Using your favorite curling product, apply a small amount all over the hair.
Step #3
Then, section off a medium section of your hair.
With each section, begin braiding from top to bottom.
To get the most volume at the crown of your hair, start braiding a few inches away from your scalp.
Step #4
Depending on the amount of time and patience you have, you can either sit under the dryer for a few minutes or keep your braids overnight.
Either way, you want to make sure the hair is completely dry before moving on to the next step.
Step #5
After your hair is dry, apply a small amount of oil to your hands and gently unbraid each section.
A dime-size amount of oil should be plenty for your entire head. Keep in mind that we do not want to add excessive products to weigh down the hair.
Step #6
After unraveling each braid, begin to separate the sections of hair.
Separate and fluff until you reach your desired volume and curl. It is a balance!
Step #7
For more volume, take your blow dryer and add medium heated air to your roots.
You can also run your blow dryer over a few sections of hair for more volume as well. A little frizz won't hurt and can add to the effortless goddess vibe of this look.
This look will be perfect for a date night or evening with your best girlfriends. You are now ready to take the night and be the life of the party. Go, Gina!
Beychella Ponytail Slinging
Saving one of my favorite celebrity styles for last, I have to shout out the curls rocked by the one and only Beyonce.
From the HBCU-inspired performance to the reuniting of Destiny's Child to everything that is the bomb about a Beyonce performance, fan-dubbed Beychella was a show of the year.
From the time she stepped on the stage as Nefertiti to changing into the blonde curls and yellow bee sweatshirt, her hair was nothing less than perfection. Who is the stylist on set?
My favorite was the wavy and sleek ponytail when Beyonce' was performing in her pick Beyonce Delta Kappa sweatshirt with pink dancers ready to rock. It seems that no one can rock a ponytail quite like The Queen.
With the Brazilian kinky curly hair, you can pull off the same look (maybe not the same strength) as Bey.
I cannot promise that your crush will fall "Crazy In Love," but you will look absolutely "Flawless" as you don this Beyonce-inspired pony.
Step #1
To get the replica of Beyonce's ponytail, you will need to dye your extensions.
Since our hair is human hair, you can treat it much like your own hair, including dying and applying heat.
As always, I recommend visiting a professional colorist when thinking about bleaching your hair to minimize damage and achieve the exact color you want.
Step #2
With your own hair, apply a generous amount of gel and water to it.
With a thick bristle brush, brush your hair up to the top of your head.
The goal is to brush down as many flyaways and curls as possible. Secure your hair at the top with a hair tie.
Step #3
With your extensions, begin to wrap the track around the bun you created.
As you wrap, consider pinning the hair in place with bobby pins.
Step #4
Once you have added the desired amount of hair, take a small piece of hair within your pony and wrap it around the base of the ponytail to conceal any pins, tracks, or hair ties.
Step #5
Finish off with some hairspray and fluff your pony.
Now it is time to show those "Bugaboos" who's boss!
