Get The Look: Rainbow Mardi Gras Hair
For Christians all around the world, Mardi Gras is an important event that is meant to be spent and cherished with loved ones. But for the LGBTQI, it also represents a festive celebration of life – and a chance to showcase your true self using all the colors of the rainbow.
Why Choose Rainbow Mardi Gras Hair
Traditionally speaking, Mardi Gras is a day where Christians celebrate with week-long parties before the Lenten season begins.
However, for LGBTQI individuals, Mardi Gras is much more than that. Known also by its full name, the Sydney Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras, it’s the biggest pride festival in the entire Oceania region, as well as one of the biggest pride festivals in the world. Every year, thousands upon thousands of tourists flock to Sydney, Australia in order to participate in this special event.
In other words, this season is your once-a-year chance to dress up in a costume that’s not decorated by fake blood and mummy wraps, such as during Halloween.
If you’re still looking for that perfect festive costume, you can start with your hair. Having silky and moisturized hair with the help of Zalaplex Hair Extension Hydrating Mask can make it easier for you to style your hair in the most festive way. And, of course, what can be more festive than rainbow hair, right?
While the official Mardi Gras colors purple, green, and gold can be found in abundance in all the events, flaunting your rainbow Mardi Gras hair can still make you stand out from the crowd. In addition to this, having rainbow hair can match all kinds of costumes. Whether you choose to wear glitter sandals and big fairy wings or a polka-dot clown jumpsuit, your rainbow hair will certainly have no problem fitting in.
That said, if you don’t want to dye your natural strands rainbow colors, then we’re here to the rescue.
Rainbow Mardi Gras Hair with Hair Extensions
With Zala Hair Extensions, you can achieve your Rainbow Mardi Gras Hair without committing to a permanent hair change.
1. Choosing the hair extensions type
If you’re a beginner to hair extensions or simply don’t have enough time to dedicate to your hair, halo hair extensions are your best bet. They’re the easiest extensions to wear and only take about 30 seconds to apply on your head.
If you want more voluminous hair, you can use clip-in hair extensions. They’re also relatively easy to wear and remove.
If you want to keep your hair extensions for at least a few weeks, you can also try tape-in extensions or weave-in extensions. They’re not very beginner-friendly though, so you may need to ask help from a trusted friend or hairdresser.
2. Coloring your hair extensions
The next, and probably most important, step is coloring your extensions. In order to have rainbow hair for Mardi Gras, you should dye your extensions in the shades of red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, and violet.
We recommend using the Ice Platinum hair extensions as your base for the best results.
3. Styling your rainbow Mardi Gras hair
Now that you’ve got your rainbow Mardi Gras hair ready, the only step left is styling. With the help of Zala’s 4-in-1 Cosmo Curling Wand, you have the freedom to choose what kind of curls you want whether that’s big, defined curls or relaxed loose waves.
With your rainbow Mardi Gras hair, an accessory or two, a little twist to your wardrobe, and eye-catching makeup, there’s no doubt that you can amaze the crowd at this year’s Mardi Gras!
