Body Building
To get the most natural volumizing effect from extensions, don’t layer them
around the whole head—put them only on the sides. “We also used
two different shades of blonde here so there wouldn’t be an obvious disconnect between her own hair and
the extensions,” says Capri, who misted the top couple of inches of the
extensions with light-brown Rita Hazan Root Concealer to blend them with the
model’s grown-out roots.

In Transition
“Extensions let you immediately get past the awkward phase
of growing out a bob,” says Lee. But they don’t have to
be one length or stick straight. In fact, they shouldn’t be.
“We added graduated layers so the shortest layer you
see is her real hair,” says Capri. Throwing in a few curves completes the illusion, seamlessly blending everything together. Capri twisted sections around a curling
iron with a one-inch barrel, leaving the last couple
of inches of the hair straight.
