There’s a reason this cut is trending across Instagram, TikTok, and every celebrity red carpet — it’s the luxury layered volume cut that instantly makes your hair look fuller, healthier, and effortlessly expensive. And yes… it’s currently the most requested cut at Need a Hair Makeover® Salon.
Soft, bouncy, face-framing layers with a smooth blowout finish… this look is universally flattering and adds that “quiet luxury” touch everyone craves. Whether your hair is long, medium, or shoulder-length, this cut creates movement, body, and that irresistible swish effect.
But here’s the truth: Most people don’t naturally have the thickness required to get this look. That’s why so many clients are pairing the cut with our award-winning hair extensions to enhance volume, shape, and flow — without losing the natural finish.
WHO THIS CUT SUITS
This style is extremely versatile and suits:
✨ Oval and round faces: The sweeping layers elongate and balance facial features effortlessly.
✨ Heart-shaped faces: Face-framing layers soften the cheekbones and give a very feminine finish.
✨ Square jawlines: The flowing edges and subtle movement help soften angular lines.
✨ Mature clients: This cut lifts the face visually and adds youthful bounce without looking overstyled.
If you want your hair to look fuller, smoother, and more lifted around the face… this cut is your best friend.
THE TYPE OF HAIR THAT LOVES THIS CUT
This cut works beautifully with:
✔ Fine hair — gains instant body and shape with layered volume. ✔ Medium density hair — moves effortlessly and styles to perfection. ✔ Straight or lightly wavy hair — ideal for that salon-blowout effect. ✔ Short-to-medium length hair — transforms into chic, bouncy glamour.
However… if your hair is:
❗ Too fine ❗ Too short ❗ Lacking density ❗ Fragile from breakage
…you’ll struggle to get the full effect without help.
That’s where our Specialist Hair Extensions Service steps in.
WHY HAIR EXTENSIONS MAKE THIS CUT 10X BETTER
At Need a Hair Makeover® we use premium techniques to create:
✨ Invisible volume ✨ Natural movement ✨ A fuller blowout ✨ A thicker, healthier look instantly ✨ Longer-lasting styling power

The Allure of Beige Blonde: How to Achieve the Look — With or Without Hair Extensions
Are your clients craving that timeless, soft “beige blonde” look? Whether they’re looking to enhance their natural hair or elevate their style with seamlessly blended hair extensions, beige blonde is one of the most requested and versatile shades in modern salons.
At its core, beige blonde is a beautiful blend of highlights and lowlights paired with carefully selected toners — and it can be achieved on both natural hair and high-quality hair extensions. This adaptable hue works wonders for clients wanting a refined, dimensional blonde that flatters a variety of skin tones.
IWhat Is Beige Blonde?
Beige blonde sits right between warm and cool, offering a creamy, soft finish that’s sophisticated without being too icy. Think of it like a cup of coffee with just the right amount of cream — subtle, balanced, and luxe.
It’s a cool-toned, ashier blonde (but not quite silver), and it’s especially popular when paired with ash blonde extensions to add fullness and length while achieving uniform color.
When clients desire this specific tone, using the right toner is critical — especially if you’re blending their natural hair with Remy human hair extensions, as both must be harmonized in tone and texture for a flawless finish.
Who Does Beige Blonde Suit?
The beauty of this shade lies in its flexibility:
Fair Skin Tones: Light beige blonde with a touch of gold highlight enhances warmth.
Cool Skin Tones: A champagne beige with ash undertones creates contrast.
Warm Skin Tones: A “bronde” (light brown + blonde) look can be customised using warmer extensions for dimension.
With bespoke hair extensions, stylists can add tailored color panels, highlights, or babylights without chemically treating the client’s entire head — preserving hair health while achieving the desired aesthetic.
Achieving the Perfect Beige Blonde (With Hair Extensions Too!)
Here’s how to bring that beige blonde dream to life for your client — whether on their natural locks, a full weave, or blended with extensions:
1. Start with a Consultation
Every transformation starts with a thorough consultation — especially when blending hair extensions with colour-treated hair. Evaluate their current colour, hair condition, and goals. If your client has darker or previously dyed hair, they may need a lightening plan over several sessions.
When extensions are involved, you’ll also need to match the tone, texture, and length, ensuring a seamless result. Book your in-depth consultation at www.needahairmakeover.com.
2. Choose the Right Lightener
Even if your client is naturally blonde, lightening may be needed to reach that soft beige tone. This is equally true when prepping hair extensions for custom colouring.
Pre-lightened or virgin Remy extensions can be toned along with natural hair to maintain consistency and blend perfectly.
3. Select a Custom Beige Blonde Shade
After lightening, use professional color to achieve the exact beige hue. From ash blonde to dark beige, mix shades for a multi-dimensional look. Extensions allow you to play with color placement more creatively — for example, adding lighter tones at the ends for a subtle ombré.
4. Add Lowlights & Highlights for Dimension
Want to add more depth or a rooted look? Integrate lowlights or create contrast with babylights — on both natural hair and extensions. Demi-permanent tones like taupe can enrich the beige effect without overwhelming it.
5. Tone With Precision
Once lightened, always tone the hair (and extensions if pre-colored). A pale beige or cool ash toner helps neutralize brassiness. Repeat toning or apply purple/blue shampoo if needed.
6. Grey Hair? No Problem
Grey hair offers an incredible base for beige blonde. If the client wears a hair topper or crown piece, ensure it’s toned to blend with their natural greys. A touch of ash can create a modern, creamy silver-blonde hybrid — chic and flattering.
Maintenance Tips for Long-Lasting Beige Blonde
Whether your client walks away with colored hair, a topper, or a full set of extensions, the right aftercare will keep that beige blonde looking fresh:
Use Purple or Blue Shampoo weekly to keep brassiness at bay.
Color-Depositing Deep Conditioners can keep tones even and moisturised.
Hair Extension-Safe Products are a must — avoiding sulphates and heavy oils that can break down bonds or wefts.
Why Add Hair Extensions to a Beige Blonde Transformation?
Hair extensions aren’t just about length — they’re about confidence, versatility, and achieving a full, flawless colour. Some of the benefits include:
Instant Volume to make beige blonde pop.
Colour Without Damage by using pre-toned extensions instead of over-processing natural hair.
Style Flexibility for events like weddings, proms, or photoshoots.
Need a Hair Makeover® offers a full range of colour-matched extensions, hair growth treatments, training, and even franchise opportunities for stylists looking to grow their salon business.
Let’s Create the Blonde of Your Dreams

By Diane Shawe, CEO of Need a Hair Makeover Hair Extensions & Hair Loss Specialist Salon Author | Educator | Hair Extensions & Hair Loss Specialist
Recently, a viral video has sparked alarm by claiming that synthetic hair is carcinogenic. As a long-standing educator and practitioner in the hair industry—working with clients suffering from alopecia, stress-related hair loss, and chemotherapy-induced thinning—I feel it’s crucial to address this topic with fact-based clarity.
Here’s what you need to know before letting fear override science.
🧪 What is Synthetic Hair Made Of? Synthetic hair is typically made from polymer-based fibers such as:
Modacrylic (a blend of acrylic and PVC) Nylon (Polyamide) Polyester Acrylic fibers (PAN-based)
These materials are not unique to wigs. They’re used in clothing, carpets, medical-grade wigs, and even children’s toys. Once processed through polymerization, they become stable and non-toxic, posing no health threat under normal use.
⚠️ Understanding the Carcinogen Confusion Some of the panic stems from misunderstanding the difference between raw chemicals and final products. For instance, acrylonitrile is toxic in its raw form—but when transformed into polyacrylonitrile fibers, it becomes chemically stable. This is standard chemistry, similar to how crude oil becomes safe plastic.
📌 Fact Check: If synthetic hair were genuinely carcinogenic, it wouldn’t be used for medical wigs worn by chemotherapy patients worldwide.
🔥 The Real Risk? Burning – Not Wearing Like any material (cotton, wool, or even natural hair), synthetic hair can emit toxic fumes if burned. However, normal wear, heat styling within safe limits, or day-to-day usage poses no proven cancer risk.
The Consumer Reports test in 2023 found small traces of benzene and VOCs in some synthetic braiding hair brands, but: The sample size was limited It was not peer-reviewed No clinical studies confirmed these materials cause harm when simply worn
💡 At Need a Hair Makeover, we educate our clients on safe heat usage and only source from high-quality suppliers.
🌍 The Environmental Factor The real issue with synthetic hair is environmental, not health-based. Most synthetic hair is non-biodegradable, contributing to microplastic waste.
However, eco-friendly solutions are emerging:
♻️ Recycled synthetic fibers 🌿 Bio-based and plant-fiber blends 🧼 Wash-before-use practices to reduce residue exposure
As a specialist salon, we’re advocating for sustainability without shame.

✅ I While we should never ignore safety signals, it’s equally dangerous to accept viral claims as fact without scientific scrutiny. To date, there is no evidence that wearing synthetic hair causes cancer. Let’s be informed, not alarmed.
✨ Whether you wear synthetic hair for fashion, convenience, or necessity—you deserve to feel confident and safe in your choices.

All-black everything can be daunting, the Kardashian have made it very popular however for a fresh take on this Autumn favorite, try warming up jet-black with ribbons of chestnut highlights. A few piecey, cool-toned strands like Olivia Munn’s look especially stellar on olive skin tones.
Dark Bronde
Already have a darker brownish-blond shade like Khloé Kardashian’s? Ask for a glaze. “With exposure to summer sun, your hair tends to fade and get bleached out.
Warm Copper
Consider this a marriage between dusty rose gold and deep auburn, with a warm metallic spark all its own.
On the brighter end of the copper spectrum sits Emma Roberts’ “cayenne red,” because of the rich red gleam that runs through the color. The shade contrasts her light complexion, and, maybe it’s just us, but it reminds us of autum. If you choose to go this route, it’s vital to keep the red hue from falling flat, so follow these celebrity-endorsed tips for keeping your red as vibrant as possible.
High-Contrast Roots
For anyone who dyes their hair, you understand how annoying root touch-ups can be. Instead of rushing into the salon, let your roots work in your favor this fall. By growing out your hair without a salon touch-up, it takes on a naturally lived-in appearance that celebrities like Hailey Baldwinhave proved to be fans of.
The best part of high-contrast roots, like Joan Smalls’ chic look is that there’s pretty much zero upkeep. Simply let your roots grow in and your blond ends grow out, and sooner or later—boom—you’ve got yourself ombré hair.
Ombré
If you thought ombré was over, think again, because it’s still going strong. Get Jenna Dewan Tatum’s perfect two-tone look by going cool on top, warm on the bottom. Have your colorist add a caramel-color tone from midlengths to ends in order to soften a natural brunette base.
Sandy Beige
Great news for those of you who love ultra-blond highlights in the summertime: By adding some beige-toned streaks like Behati Prinsloo’s to your hair for fall, you’ll end up with incredibly beautiful dimension and richness. Keep the color lasting longer with a few of our favorite shine-inducing hair products.
For a different take on the shade, like Jordyn Woods’ here, aim for a sandy allover color that gradually deepens, just a touch, at the roots.
