Best Met Gala Hairstyles

Gigi Hadid

Gigi kept things simple with her hair this year and we loved it! She rocked a simply voluminous waved look with cute gold hair pins and was definitely sporting one of the best Met Gala hairstyles of the night. To achieve this look, follow the steps below:

  1. Using your straightener on a low heat mode, apply very loose waves to your hair extensions as well as your own hair, focusing on the ends. Once curled, allow to cool and brush out the curls to create a softer look. For a look just like Gigi's try our 16 inch - Honey Blonde #18 - 9 piece clip ins.
  2. Apply your extensions, ensuring you keep a straight middle part.
  3. Brush through your hair and the extensions to ensure seamless blending.
  4. Take two gold bobby pins and pin either side of your hair down about one inch above your ears.

Taylor Hill

Model Taylor Hill was rocking a slick ponytail and fierce smokey eye for this year's gala. To achieve this look, a ZALA 22inch human hair ponytail is absolute must!

  1. To start, sleek your hair back into a high ponytail making sure to remove any lumps or loose hairs. Optional: Use hairspray and a small amount of gel to keep this look in place and your hair looking sleek. 
  2. Straighten your 22 inch - ZALA human hair ponytail ensuring there are no kinks or waves. Brush through this once done to ensure it is sleek and shiny.
  3. Apply your 22 inch - ZALA human hair ponytail. Taylor has naturally brunette hair and we would recommend our Chestnut Brown #6 shade for a look just like hers.
  4. And voila! You have Met Gala worthy hair.

SZA

Sza looked angelic at this year's Met Gala with gorgeous curls and an amazing halo like headpiece. There is no doubt, this was one of the best Met Gala hairstyles of the year. Follow the steps below to get Sza's amazing look:

  1. Curl your own hair and your hair extensions using the ZALA Cosmo Curling Wand. We would recommend using a smaller barrel to achieve slightly smaller, tighter curls. If your hair is very curled once done, don't worry to much as these curls will drop with time! For this look, we would recommend using our 20inch - Quad Wefted clip in set. For a look just like Sza's try our Jet Black #1 colour.
  2. Once curled, run your fingers through your hair as well as the extensions very gently to break up some of the curls.
  3. Apply your hair extensions ensuring they are completely blended.
  4. Once your hair extensions are applied, you can take a section of your hair from just above your ears and pull it back, securing it with a hair tie or pins for a gorgeous half up, half down look.
  5. Then take a small section of hair from just behind your ear and plait it to create a small tight braid. Repeat this on the other side of your head as well.
  6. While you may not have the wild head piece Sza was sporting, try a cute gold head band to complete this angelic look.
