3 Easy Ways to Style Hair Accessories with Hair Extensions

We've styled these looks using hair clips for thick hair, but don’t worry - every style can be adapted for fine to medium hair too. Just pick your clip size accordingly.

1. The Half-Up Barrette Moment

This one’s a go-to for good reason. Take the top layer of your hair (natural plus extensions) and secure it at the back using a barrette hair clip . This keeps wefts hidden while giving your hair volume and shape.

For medium to fine hair, we recommend our barrettes in mini to small. For thick or layered hair, go for a extra large barrette clip. 

2. The Effortless Claw Clip Up-Do

Yes, the claw clip is still trending - and it’s perfect with extensions. Whether you’re doing a French twist or a quick bun, a large claw clip for thick hair gives great hold without damaging your extensions.

We styled this using Irresistible Me’s dark brown clip in hair extensions for a casual everyday look that’s comfy, secure, and stylish.

3. The Chic Pleat with an Extra Large Barrette

Feeling fancy? Try a French pleat secured with our Extra Large Barrette  the easiest way to go from everyday to elegant without heat or fuss. We styled this look using long Irresistible Me clip-in hair extensions for added volume.

FAQ:

Can I wear my hair in a ponytail with extensions?


Yes. But instead of a regular hair tie (which can tug or show your extensions), we recommend a hair claw. It’s gentler, easier to use, and it conceals extensions beautifully.

How can I make my hair look fuller with extensions?

Layer your clip-ins strategically and tease at the roots for lift. Finish with decorative hair clips or a well-placed barrette hair clip to add structure and draw attention to the volume.

How do I make my extensions look more natural?

Blending is everything. Match your extensions as closely as possible to your natural hair (Irresistible Me makes that super easy with their wide shade range). Then, use styling tools or accessories to disguise seams and polish the final look.
So whether you’re working with fine strands or a full head of clip in extensions, hair accessories make styling easier and more secure. Between Irresistible Me’s inclusive range and our accessories made for all hair types, you’ve got everything you need for a stress-free, damage-free hair day.
