00:00Or you could try, you know, blue one day, pink the next day.
00:06I can tell you're going to be an addict.
00:07I think we should make sure that this video comes with a warning.
00:12You will get addicted.
00:14Hi, my name is Sloane and this is Hair Meow.
00:16Today I'm getting hair extensions for the first time.
00:19I am getting hair extensions from Chris Appleton,
00:21who does Kim Kardashian's hair and Ariana Grande's hair and JLo's hair.
00:26He does everyone's hair and then he's doing mine.
00:29So I have had a love-hate relationship with my hair.
00:34Growing up it was kind of like big and flowy and super blonde
00:40and I really identified with having sort of this like wild lion's mane of hair.
00:46And my hair just naturally has gotten really thin over the years.
00:49It doesn't match what I think of myself as.
00:52I'm going out with my friends tonight so that I can show my hair off.
00:55You're so excited.
00:56I'm so excited.
00:59Yeah, I've been dying for this.
01:00Hey guys, my name is Chris Appleton and I'm a celebrity hairstylist.
01:04Now I'm so excited to be joined today by Sloane
01:07because we're going to be showing you a celebrity inspired look using hair extensions.
01:11You ready?
01:12Very ready.
01:13So the first step is just to blow out your hair.
01:15I did it really quick.
01:17I stretched out Sloane's hair just to take any kinks out, ready for the extensions to go in.
01:24Put in a smaller sized extension in at the root.
01:28Now you want to always make sure there's hair either side to cover the tracks.
01:32Look where the clips are and then tease those two sections.
01:35Especially if the hair is slippy or freshly washed.
01:38I use the Colourwell Court Favourite hair spray just to give it a little bit of grit.
01:45Then what you're going to do is work in sections building weight in about inch to two inch sections
01:51depending on how much hair you have.
02:08I've never gotten hair extensions before.
02:10I've never had long hair.
02:11I want my hair to look a certain way and I just naturally, I can't achieve that look.
02:16I can't get it to grow that long.
02:17I can't get it to be thick.
02:19That's just not a thing that you can get your hair to do if your hair is thin.
02:21I've been wanting hair extensions for so long but I know that they can look kind of like weird.
02:25Britney Spears 2007.
02:28I'm so excited to have Chris Appleton do it because he is like it.
02:34So the previous extension was slightly more highlighted and this one is more rooted.
02:39So we're going to blend the roots in here at the top and then go for a bit of a
02:42pop of colour towards the end.
02:46How's it feeling?
02:47I feel like Rapunzel.
02:48Oh, that's a good feeling.
02:51Just a slight diagonal sections, the hair will fall around the face nicely.
02:55If you put it straight, it just kind of falls away from the face.
03:02And then as the hair lays on top, at this point you get a super nice blend.
03:07That's amazing.
03:08Right?
03:08It truly looks like it's my own hair.
03:10Transforms it, doesn't it?
03:11Yeah, yeah.
03:21The important part of like cutting hair when you have extensions in is to keep the ends super soft.
03:32I think having hair extensions will just give me more confidence.
03:35It'll make me feel kind of more excited and, you know, I want to wear it like a lion's mane.
03:40And be all like, hey, look at me.
03:45This is an amazing texturizing spray just to help give us some really nice hold whilst we style the hair.
04:01It's amazing like what a difference adding the hair can, you know, makes the way you feel.
04:06Yeah.
04:06I think that is what it was.
04:08I had all of this big hair confidence.
04:10Yeah.
04:11It's like big dick energy, right?
04:12Yeah.
04:13Big hair confidence.
04:14Yeah.
04:15And it didn't, it wasn't the same.
04:17I'd see pictures and I'd see myself in the mirror.
04:18And you're like, so you're like a big, big haired girl at heart inside.
04:22Yes.
04:22But the reality of it is your hair was like not looking like that.
04:25No, it wasn't.
04:26Well, now your dreams have come true.
04:28I know.
04:37It looks amazing.
04:39It really feels like hair.
04:41I know.
04:41This is just like, this is baby's first extension.
04:44So I'm going to have a moment.
04:45You're like, it feels like hair.
04:46I'm like, it is.
04:47It looks like hair.
04:48Yeah.
04:48All of the things that everyone who's like usually has extensions.
04:51It's like calm down.
04:52No, it's nice.

04:58Beautiful, right?
04:59Oh, I feel like a princess.
05:06So now that I have my hair extensions, I love them so much.
05:09I think they look so good.
05:11They make me feel confident.
05:12I love the weight of them.
05:14I love the feel of them.
05:15I think they look very natural and chic.
05:17Even though my hair is fake, I feel more like myself.
