Foxy Locks Extensions - In Depth Look - Quality - Latte Blonde Superior 230gram Clip Ins

 I realised that I hadn't ever posted an in depth look into Foxy Locks Clip In Extensions - and with the launch of the brand new packaging and upgraded Superior set (which is now 230 grams) I felt it was time for a post about them!

 The new packaging (which is available in Superior set and soon all other sets) has been specifically designed to ensure your extensions are stored in the best way possible before arriving with you! 
The smaller case means the hair is now swirled into shape for instant style - this shape also allows shipping to be safer on the hair and also lower shipping costs for you! (how great is that) 


The new style packaging has two separate sections, one with just one weft from your complete set and the other side contains the remaining wefts tucked securely inside with a tamper proof sticker - as Foxy Locks have very high quality and hygiene values this seal ensures the extensions are never worn previously.


The smaller section containing the one weft is for colour matching purposes only, this piece is secured to the card so it can not be tried on but can be assessed to ensure this is the correct match for you & if it is - fabulous! You now can open your set & remove it from it's shackles :) Or if it does not match you can simply return it for an exchange or a refund if you prefer.


 The hair itself is stunning, thick and super soft! You literally cannot stop touching and stroking them when you first take them out, trust me you'll do the same. The hair is like silk, and thick from top to bottom. That is one of the major factors that separates Foxy Locks from other brands, the ends are naturally thick and full giving a beautiful 'seamless' effect once clipped in - plus the fact the hair is to the highest quality.
You instantly look like you have the most beautiful thick hair, naturally - as no one can tell they are clip ins!
Remember when clip ins were ratty and stringy looking? Not anymore, with Foxy Locks!

 The Superior set comes with 8 Triple Wefted pieces - each with lace attached for comfort and stability. The clips are very secure and do not slide down the hair due to the high quality stainless steel used and the silicone strip that gently holds onto your natural hair.

The results are unbelievable, so natural and stunning! I love them and am so proud of them. Foxy Locks are among the best quality (if not the best) Remy Human Hair available and the great thing is that the prices very reasonable for the quality, length and thickness you receive.

Simple French Twist



The French Twist is a very elegant and classic hairstyle. It can be easily changed up, I prefer mine not so tight and slick but more loose and messy. 

 I love Kate Winslet's French Twist - keeping it a little messy makes it more fun hairstyle than too formal.

Kristen Stewart's twist is similar to the one I recreated it's very casual and would look great with any outfit!

Megan Fox's is much neater and looks very formal, this look is perfect if you're wearing a statement outfit and you need your hair to look polished.

I have created a really quick and easy French Twist tutorial. Watch it here:

Big Hair! Nicky Clarke Volume Range


I recently tried out the fabulous Nicky Clarke hair styling product range. 
I have been testing out the volumizing range which i am extremely impressed with!

First up:


This is my favorite all time hairspray (and I've tried a lot!). It gives amazing volume when used with backcombing, it also keeps curls in really well. The formula dries quite hard, which makes it perfect for backcombing but when brushed through it leaves a softer finish that keeps your style in place.
RRP: £10


In the photo above I've got 'second day' curls after using the Ultimate hairspray - the curls stayed in amazingly (even in my extensions)! They became looser but i love the results! Soft beautiful waves.



TEASE ME Backcomb in a bottle is fab! It's a sort of sticky powder that is put onto the roots of your hair to create instant volume. You simply separate your hair and sprinkle the powder directly at your root, then use your fingers to activate the volume by lifting and shaking your hair! It's really great for adding extra volume and also works extremely well when using a backcombing brush (if you want super huge hair)!
RRP: £14.50

When i visited the Nicky Clarke Salon in Mayfair for my wonderful 'Gift Experience', the ultra talented @WarrenHolmes cut and styled my hair. He used both TEASE ME and Ultimate Hairspray on my hair. The results were amazing and the curls lasted all day and night! 


Hair Raising is a pre-styling product. You spray it in damp/towel dried hair, then after blowdrying your hair it creates substantial lift. It leaves your hair feeling natural - the best part is that it isn't sticky and is completely weightless. It also adds a lovely shine.
RRP: £16


I love using mousse when using Hot Rollers, if you put mousse close to your roots and all the way to the tips it creates a great look when styling with hot tools, the curls can look very structured after using mousse but once you brush them out (using a wide tooth comb) the results are beautiful. The right mousse will give you amazing volume - and that's exactly what this one does!
RRP: £10

I cannot express how impressed I am with the Nicky Clarke range. I have some shampoos and conditioners that I will be reviewing soon also. 

I recommend all these products, they are truly high class and give real results! 

Use code: foxylocks to get 10% off your order online at Nicky Clarke.

If you visit the Nicky Clarke website make sure you check out the Gift Experience section, I had the most amazing day and I was completely pampered! I wish I could get my hair done that way every time (I even had lunch and champagne!). Such a wonderful experience.

The Best Shampoo For Blondes

Before                                                                        After

Like almost all blondes, I really dislike brassy tones in my blonde hair. This usually occurs a few weeks after having my highlights done. It's caused by the blonde fading, product staining, and also by general everyday elements that can effect your beautiful blonde locks. 
Although a subtle 'yellow' toned blonde is not a bad thing, most people do not want that brassy or canary yellow tone.


I have used many shampoo's for blonde hair, some that enhance highlights and others that take out the brassy tones. I have used L'Oreal Expert Shine Blonde Shampoo, which had very minimal results - if any. It just dried my hair out. I do find with most blonde shampoo's that they have a drying effect, so i highly recommend backing it up with a ton of nourishing conditioner after you use.

I recently saw Lee Stafford hair products on offer in Boots, which definitely persuaded my decision to buy it. I hadn't heard much about the Lee Stafford range so I had never thought to buy it before. I picked up the Bleach Blondes shampoo - which has a ProBlonde complex that knocks out brassy and canary yellow tones. 
This blonde shampoo is seriously amazing, I wasn't expecting much but I actually had a shock when my hair started to dry after washing! I couldn't believe how ashy it had gone, it had taken out all the brassy tones. Although my hair is still a subtle yellow toned blonde it no longer has any brassy tones, only ash undertones to it. 

It's a deep dark purple colour and very thick in consistency. The smell is beautiful, and lasts all day (just like when you've had your hair done at the salon!). I would only recommend using this product when you need to, or you will end up with very ashy toned hair. It's super strong stuff! I'm going to use it every time I see those brassy tones. 

Remember not to abuse purple shampoo's or you could end up with a purple hue to your hair (I've seen it on girls before!), unless that's what you like, then by all means over do it :) 
If you use purple shampoo's once a week you can end up with a really nice ashy toned colour if you want to remove all yellow. 
I also recommend using this product on your extensions if you want them to become more ash also, but foam it up in your hands first before applying to prevent any purple staining. Leave on for about 1 minute. Foxy Locks do have a new Platinum blonde shade which is perfect for ash blonde hair!
