    Halo Hair Extensions: Heavenly Hair in 60 Seconds

    A halo hair extension works with an invisible wire that rests comfortably on your head, sitting snugly under your natural hair. No tugging, no damage, and definitely no drama, just gorgeous hair in under a minute. Plus, they’re made from 100% Remy human hair, so you can wash, curl, straighten, and style them just like your own.

    If you’ve been debating between clip in hair extensions and permanent extensions, halo extensions are the perfect in-between: helping you achieve salon-quality results in front of your bedroom mirror!

    Halo Hair Extensions Length Guide

    Choosing the right length for your halo extensions hair is a bit like picking the perfect heel height, it’s all about matching your style, comfort, and the look you’re going for. Our halo offers three lengths: 12 inch, 16 inch, and 20 inch, each with its own personality and perks.

    Before you buy, think about your natural hair length, the occasion, and how much of a transformation you want. If your goal is to add volume while keeping things subtle, a shorter length might be your match. But if you’re craving something more dramatic, then longer options are your best bet.

    Let’s break down the benefits of each length so you can make the most informed (and fabulous) choice!

    12 Inch Halo Hair Extensions

    If halo hair extensions were shoes, the 12 inch halo would be your chic ballet flats: versatile, easy to wear, and perfect for an everyday glow up. Designed for shoulder-length hair, these clip-in hair extensions add just the right amount of volume without drastically changing your look.

    The 12-inch length sits around your collarbone, giving you a naturally full finish. They’re especially perfect for creating bouncy blow-dries, loose waves, or sleek, straight looks. If you’re wearing your hair up, the 12-inch halo blends beautifully into low ponytails or textured buns. And because they’re lighter than longer extensions, they’re perfect for all-day wear without a second thought.

    16 Inch Halo Hair Extensions

    Now we’re talking mid-length magic. The 16 inch halo hair extensions fall just below your bust, a length that works wonderfully for anyone with medium to long hair who wants to add both volume and noticeable length.

    If you’ve been using permanent hair extensions and want to give your hair a break without sacrificing your style, this length is an excellent alternative. You’ll have enough length to experiment with curls, waves, or intricate updos, while still keeping your look natural. Plus, 16 inches is long enough to show off intricate styles without the extra weight of ultra-long hair.

    20 Inch Halo Hair Extensions

    The 20 inch halo is the showstopper – the stiletto heel of the hair world. If you’ve ever dreamed of waist-length waves or mermaid-like tresses, this is your ticket. Perfect for those who want an unbelievable transformation, 20 inches works best on medium to long hair for a seamless blend. And unlike professional hair extensions that require hours in the chair, this halo gives you supermodel hair in seconds.

    With our 20 inch halo, you can go big and bold with cascading curls for events, or keep it sleek and straight for a glossy, modern finish. If you want to turn heads, this is your length.
