The XXL hair slide
This summer it’s all about hair accessories! After the headband, the tiara or even the head scarf, it’s the XXL hair slide’s time to shine in the summer sun! Take your pick and wear it your own way.
How to wear it? The XXL hair slide should be the centrepiece of your hair style, the main event! And it needs to stand out. Don’t even think about trying to camouflage it in your hair. The XXL hair slide should sit proudly on your loose hair, straight or wavy. Create a neat side-parting and slip your hair slide in on the thicker side, just above your ear. An easy-to-wear, every day accessory which adds extra glam to simple, straight hair.
Which XXL hair slide? The choice of accessory will determine your hairstyle. To stay with the summer theme, opt for a floral slide! Perfect for a touch of oriental. For a more glamorous effect, choose a hair slide with diamantes or a vintage style: so this season. To pull off the sweet and innocent look, try a long, flat hair slide. Opt for gold, silver or pearly colours if you want glam, or pastels for a more romantic effect.
What make-up? Summer is here, so don’t go covering up your skin with endless layers of make-up! “Au naturel” is the look for this summer. Let your XXL hair slide do the talking and forget smokey eyes. Go for a coral blush and glossy lips for a floral slide or a red “femme fatale” lipstick and a lick of mascara for a vintage slide.
