Love Island has returned with its unique dollop of icks, rizz, grafting and bombshells, backed by an array of celebrity fans including Margot Robbie, Liam Gallagher and Adele. The re-couplings, rocky relationships and racy hook-ups have become a summer obsession. Who would have guessed that throwing a score of bronzed beauties and shirtless, chiseled hunks into a tropical paradise (stocked with alcohol) would result in unmissable TV?
A big topic of conversation on social media has unsurprisingly centred around the enviable looks of this year’s gorgeous girls. From Tiffany's glow-up, Harriet's £4k+ transformation to Maya's jaw-dropping outfits – we can’t get enough of these lovely lasses.
Particularly lust-worthy is the long, flowing Amazonian style hair sported by the girlies - irresistible to even their own touch! (Have you noticed the constant rearranging, preening and scrunching that goes on?)
Several of the Love Island hairstyles are thanks to permanent, bonded hair extensions. If the cost and maintenance of this procedure make you wince, the perfect alternative Love Island Hair Extensions are just a click away.
The Hollywood Icon Half Wig is designed to cover the majority of your natural hair and blend effortlessly with the section around the forehead with the help of 7 sturdy pressure clips. The 25 inch long hairpiece boasts big, bouncy waves that can be tweaked and styled with ease to achieve your favorite Love Island hairstyle. The fully heat resistant half wig is available in 7 colours and can be treated as human hair with your full range of styling products.
Backcomb your hair around the crown to achieve Maya's ‘big-hair-don’t-care’ look. This method also works to effectively cover the join of the half wig.
For a more relaxed style like Uma's, straighten out the ends of the hair. This will remove the pronounced curl and create more of a beach wave look.
Grace‘s sunglasses would do the job of concealing the line of the hairpiece nicely. An alice band also works well or tie the loose section of your hair up into a ponytail. This exposes the face and adds volume to the crown.
Use a sectioning comb to create a mini, off centre, uneven part line as worn by Samantha. Comb the rest of the hair around the crown up and over the edge of the half wig to conceal the line. Leave shorter layers loose to flatter the face, adding volume to the cheeks.
Maya is bang on trend with the summer-favourite hairstyle (half-up half-down-hair). Simply pull the front section of your natural hair back and over the edge of the hairpiece and fashion into a top knot, braid or messy pony - a clever way to cover the line of the half wig.
To achieve Mimii's super sexy hair, spritz Sea Salt Spray through the lengths and work through with your fingers. This creates texture and a more effortless, unstyled look.
To replicate Lucy's luscious locks, once the hairpiece is attached, use a wide tooth comb to separate the hair and loosen the waves. Straighten out some of the lengths for a laid-back mix of textures.
The Hollywood Icon Half Wig is ideal if you are a fan of Emma’s glamorous hair. Leave the hair extension as is and attach after the application of a good Root Lift Spray for added thickness and volume.
If you're crushing on Tiffany's hair with its easy-going allure, simply brush through the hair lengths and straighten out the ends until just a slight wave exists. Pin back the front section to cover the edge of the half wig and pull a few strands forward over the forehead and around the face.
Prefer chic, straight lengths for a polished summer look? Opt for the Sleek Icon Half Wig, featuring all of the benefits of its wavy counterpart in a pre-styled poker straight style.
