How to Style:

Smooth hair into ponytail.

Wrap loose extension hair around ponytail.

Take sections of hair roll and pin into place until height and shape of bun is achieved.

Spray sheen to add shine to hair.

Recommended Products:

X-pression hair extensions is my favorite brand to use to achieve this style. It’s length, weight and shine give fantastic, full results time after time.

Best Face Shape and Hair Type:

This style looks great on everyone. It’s especially great for those women who have round faces because this ‘do will tend to elongate the face. Straight or wavy long hair is recommended to achieve this style.

Halle Berry has an endless beauty that has followed her throughout the years. Her classic pixie stays as a standard in the hair industry!

How to Style:

Dry hair with wrapping lotion foam.

When dry, flat iron hair into style.

Spray sheen to add shine to hair.

Recommended Products:

The most important thing about this style is protecting the hair by putting moisture back in especially if you have lightened your hair or if it’s relaxed. That being said, try using Hair Polisher Heat Protecting Hair Serum by Fantasia. Check out the one with aloe enriched serum for an amazing shine. This is especially good for use if your styling tools are ceramic.

Best Face Shape and Hair Type:

This style looks great on everyone. Straight, short hair is recommended to achieve this style.
