Need a cute Valentine’s Day hairstyle to rock this weekend? We’ve got the perfect look for you!

Start by parting your hair in the middle and creating two smaller sections at the front (one on each side). Braid the two sections of hair. We did two basic braids. But you can, of course, do any type of braid you wish for. If braiding simply isn’t for you, try twisting the hair instead. Once you’re done braiding or twisting the hair, secure the hair using clear elastic bands. We also used a volumizing foam from Redken to help add texture to the hair. This is great if your hair feels too slippery. An alternative to this is using texturizing spray.

Move one to adding your clip-in hair extensions at the back of your hair, but make sure to leave a bit of hair at the top (we’ll work on this section of hair later on). To achieve this cute Valentine’s Day hairdo, we used clip-ins from the Classic 20” set. We added 3 clip ins at the back of the head for more volume and a bit of added length. However, if you want more volume, go ahead and add even more clip ins. If you’re going for a more subtle look, you can add less clip ins or none at all. You decide what feels best for you.

Brush through the hair to help the clip in hair extensions better blend with your hair and then move on to styling the hair. We used a 1.5 inch curling wand when curling the models hair. To make your curls last, make sure to let the hair cool down and set before styling it. Use clips or pins to hold each curl in place while it cools down. An alternative is to hold each curl in your hand a few seconds before releasing it.

While letting the curled hair cool down, bring your two side braids or twists to the back of the hair and secure with an elastic band. Now it’s time to work on the top section of hair. Let down a section of hair and add clip ins. Bring down another section of hair from the top and add another clip in piece. We added 2 pieces of clip in hair extensions at the top of the head. Again, you decide how many clip ins you’d like to add for your desired look.

Once the last clip ins are in, it’s time to curl the rest of the hair. Let the hair cool down before brushing through all of your hair. Gently go through the hair using your fingers and Voila!  You’re done!

We hope you’ll give this hairstyle a try during the weekend. And if you do, don’t forget to share your look with us on Instagram using #estellessecret. We’d love to see you recreate this hairdo!

Wishing you a lovely weekend!
