There is no shame with added hair…as a matter of fact, it’s a cooler way to jazz up your style without harming your own hair and possibly causing damage with color, glues, adhesives, or chemical treatments. Short, medium, long…your hair’s length truly does not matter since adding hair will allow you to master any style you want and even whatever color you are feeling on that particular day. It is about your mood, your style, your statement, and your prerogative.
12 Styles with Marley Hair
Classy Braid High Bun
Buns are classic, stylish, and chic. Uniqu3neverway shows us you can have one as big and as bad as you want! A pack of Marley hair, a few pins, and a few minutes are all you need to create this masterpiece bun. It can be high, on the side, and even low in the back. This style will keep for days as long as you wrap a satin or silk scarf around the base of the bun.
Jumbo Two Strand Flat Twist
Do you want an updo with flair, fullness, and will last for about ten days? Yes, you can achieve this look with a jumbo two strand flat twist with Marley hair. Coily Bella shows how short or medium hair can create a regal updo despite the length. She spends a lot of time explaining the correct way to flat twist your hair without incurring damage. Your braids can be as small or as chunky as you would like, but remember to cover the style at night with a satin or silk scarf to preserve the style and to keep it fresh longer.
Empress Bun
Looking for a princess updo that will have all eyes on you? Jouelzy has the perfect style to make you pull out the tiara and get your princess wave on! She starts on a week old Bantu knot out. What I love is her admission that there is no correct way to pin or create this style. Do you! She’s wrapping, twirling, pinning all around the two ponytails (one in the front and one in the back or at the very top”>. You can even create a fake bang as well and make sure to accessorize with a glammed headband, flowers, or sparkling pin.
3 Summer to Fall Styles
You rocking those long Marley twists in your hair and ready for some new styles as we step into fall? Tiffany Nicole shares three great styles that will get you more than ready for the cooler temps.
Hattin it
The first style is all about cooler weather and still being cute. Twists are rotated inward almost like a braid and topped with a cute hat or a multi-colored scarf. One bobby pin and an ouchless headband come together to create a style ready for any fall festival.
Partin it
This style is perfect for every day and will keep your braids out of your eyes and super simple to create. With a deep part you take a side and start twisting before pinning. Then, you tie the back and end up with a style quick enough to get you out the door in minutes and cute enough to make it seem like it took much longer.
Updoin it
This is an add-on from the second style. There is just more tying until all hair is up and even pin if you have some stragglers.
High Buns
Want to have fun with your Marley hair? Well, then you have to watch De La Fro rock the afro puff high buns and you will be addicted to her fun-loving nature and her funky style. She takes slightly stretched hair that has been parted down the middle and gelled into two puffs with ouch less elastics. After they are dry and laying pretty she pins her Marley hair around her puffs. Super cute, super easy and amazingly trendy!
Grecian Goddess Braid
Here is another goddess braid with Marley hair and has tastePink sharing her technique of adding the hair to her braid so it’s fuller, longer, and it’s all heat free. Knowing how to French braid with added hair is necessary so the skill level is high, but if you know how then you gotta try this super chic look that would be perfect with flower bows, a glammed headband or sparkling pins.
Faux Locs
Donedo is here to show us how to install Faux Locs all by yourself. Yes, it can be done and with Marley hair. With the cooler weather coming soon it’s a great style to rock to keep yourself warm as they cascade down your back and have your own hair completely covered. The skill level is not too hard, but this look will be time-consuming to create. If you are ready for the challenge, then check out her super easy to follow video on how to do this yourself.
