How to curl your hair extensions with GHD

If you have ever dreamed of showing off perfect waves in the style of your favorite actress, but you don't know how to get them, we have the solution! In this post we explain how to curl your natural hair extensions using the famous GHD plates.

Whether you have straight hair or curly hair, waves are a timeless and versatile trend that you can adapt to any occasion: casual, elegant looks or with that fashionable surfer touch. And if you also carry natural hair extensions, you will get hair with more volume and an impressive effect.

Our stylists at Play Extensions, with salons in Madrid y Barcelona, they use the irons GHD to create perfect and long-lasting waves in our clients' extensions. Next, we teach you how to wave your extensions step by step and the necessary care to keep your look intact.

Step by step: Wave your hair extensions with GHD

1. Prepare your hair and extensions
   • Make sure the hair is clean and completely dry.
   • Apply a thermal protector from mid-lengths to ends, avoiding the union of the extensions. This will protect the hair from heat and give it softness and shine.
2. Divide hair into sections
   • Start with the nut. Gather up the rest of the hair and release strands little by little.
   • Take a small strand, place the GHD iron close to the root and gently twist it to the side, keeping the tip of the hair facing down.
   • For looser waves, tilt the iron slightly downward.
3. Work in alternate directions
   • As you move through your hair, alternate the direction of the iron's spin (one strand to the right, the next to the left).
   • This will create an effect natural and casual.
4. Gives volume to the upper part
   • When you reach the top of your head, twist the straightener near the roots to get more volume.
   • Comb hair with soft, natural movements.
5. Give it the final touch
   • Once you have curled all your hair, open the waves with your hands.
   • Apply a little anti-frizz serum in the palms and distribute it gently through the waves. This will give it shine and prevent frizz.

Extra Trick!: For waves with more volume, always start from the roots and rotate the iron at a slight angle. Work in small strands for better control.
