Confession time: I had a moment. You know one of those life-low, “I need a change” spirals. On a whim, I cut off my long blonde locks thinking a shorter look would be fresh. It was cute for about five minutes until regret set in . . . hard. I missed my length immediately and with my slow-growing hair, knew I’d be waiting years to get it back.
So when I discovered Luxy Hair’s Halo Hair Extensions, it honestly felt like a gift from the hair gods. No more awkward growing phase, no waiting years for flowing locks. Within seconds, my short, shoulder-length hair transformed into full, flowing locks again. It was like hitting fast-forward on years of growth — and stepping into a more confident version of myself!
Soft, silky and totally natural-looking, these extensions are unlike anything I’ve ever tried. They’re made with 100% Remy human-grade hair that come in a wide variety of shade ranges, from blonde balayage (my pick) to rich espresso browns. They have a halo design, which is totally brilliant because there’s no clips, glue, tape or hair damage involved. They’re truly so comfortable and blend seamlessly, I forget they’re even there — and no one else notices them either.
They’re made for those who’ve had a regrettable hair cut (like me), struggle with thin, fine hair (also me) or who want some extra volume on a special occasion . . . or really any occasion. If your hair grows at a glacial pace like mine, they’re a game-changer for bringing length and volume without the wait.
The extensions are also perfect for anyone who loves to play around with their look. One day you could be serving mermaid-length brunette waves like Kate Middleton, the next, a chic, shoulder-grazing cut. I like that I currently have the best of both worlds — a shorter vibe when it’s hot out and longer when I want to take it up a notch.
The Luxy essentials have to be the most easy-to-apply extensions on the market. Instead of spending forever finding the perfect place for each clip-in, they simply go over my head just like a headband. To apply, I carve out an actual halo around my head with a comb, clip up the hair on top of my head, place the hair and then fix up anything out of place with the included handy dandy comb. Then voilà, it’s done! Easy, painless and the quickest transformation I’ve ever experienced.
While I was able to test mine through the brand, I can totally see that the price would make anyone a little hesitant. But trust me, these are worth every penny. And in comparison to luxury mark-up salon appointments that could cost thousands, these are relatively cheap, while still bringing that same ‘rich girl’ look. Plus, the instant confidence I get every time I get when I slip them on? Honestly, totally priceless — and I’d probably pay more.
