Hair Extensions Hack: Kim Kardashian's Method

You’ve probably seen the iconic video of Kim Kardashian and Desi Perkins doing a full makeup tutorial using Kim’s line of cosmetics. 

It’s full of useful tips and a demonstration on how to create a glam look using the product range. 

But as hair extension experts, one part particularly stood out to us – as Kim reveals the key to changing her hair length. And let us tell you, it’s a saviour for short haired gals everywhere. 

What is Kim Kardashian’s Hair Extension Trick?

Kim’s hair hack makes it effortless to add a glamorous boost in length and volume to short hair, using hair extensions.

To seamlessly transition from blunt bob to hip grazing locks, Kim braids back the hair at the side of her face to avoid any shorter hairs poking out. She braids all the way to the back, so the hair extensions can fall seamlessly and only the shorter pieces at the back need blending. 

This hack is perfect for anyone with short hair or a blunt haircut and will allow you to go that little bit longer if you want to.

It’s a variation on our hack for tying up the hair at the nape of your neck, going one step further and working amazingly for thick hair. 

Recreating the Kim K Hair Hack

If you’re looking to recreate the Kim Kardashian hair extension hack – and enjoy longer, fuller hair in minutes – the good news is, it’s super easy.

It’s essentially a skinny Dutch braid – and while it might be fiddly at first, it’s so easy with some practice. 

Start by creating a section of hair around your hairline, leaving enough hair out at the front to cover it, as Kim has. 

You can then braid either side back to meet in the middle and secure it with some bobby pins.

Once you’ve recreated Kim K’s hack, you’re ready to simply clip your hair extensions in place.

If you’re looking for an instant glam boost in hair length and volume, Milk & Blush clip-in extensions are available in lengths from 12” to 24”, to suit every existing hair length and the new style you’re after.
