Hairstyles for Melbourne Cup

STRAIGHT AND SLEEK

If you've left your locks to the last minute this straight and sleek look is for you! Start by creating a clean centre part and straighten your natural hair. We applied a full 9 piece set of 20-inch ZALA clip in hair extensions to our girl Veronica's hair for added length and volume. When it comes to an event like Melbourne Cup, hair extensions are our favourite accessory to complete an outfit! You can leave the look here, but for a little extra, backcomb your natural hair at the crown. Smooth over with your brush and finish with a fascinator!
