Festival season is calling, and your hair’s about to go viral! Luckily, Pinterest has already been buzzing with this year’s hottest Coachella hair trends, and with the main event just round the corner, we’ve got your ultimate go-to guide for festival hair ideas. Whether you’re dancing front row for Charli XCX or snapping sunset selfies in front of the Ferris wheel, your hair needs to be just as iconic as your outfit.
Freestyle Fits
Think early-2000s pop star meets present-day it-girl. This look blends sportswear, snatched makeup, and chunky blonde highlights for major throwback vibes. It’s playful, polished, and ultra-Instagrammable. This style is a nod to absolutely everything we loved back in 2004 – pop princesses, glossy lips, and MTV. Match your look with a sweatband, oversized shades, or a velour tracksuit to drive it all home.
Dark Ethereal
Want something more mystical? The Dark Ethereal aesthetic is all about long, flowing, romantic locks. Subtle waves, hidden braids, and deep brunette tones with violet or silver undertones are also the way to go. Pair this look with layered necklaces, flowing dresses, and boots to make it extra witchy. It’s equal parts fairytale and fierce. Steal Charli’s look with our 26 inch clip in hair extensions – our longest yet!
Urban Wrangler
Western-inspired glam is still going strong amongst festival hair trends, and Urban Wrangler is where it’s at. Long hair pairs perfectly with bolo ties, cowboy boots, and a classic denim mini skirt. If you want more volume and length, you can channel a little more yeehaw energy with our Cowgirl Copper hair extensions! Whether you part your hair in the middle, sweep it into a loose braid or let it be wild and curly like Chappell, this look loves fringe jackets, flared jeans, and desert dust. Add a leather hat to tie the whole look together (literally).

Main Pop Girl
This one’s for the baddies. Main Pop Girl hair is sleek, shiny, and always a little extra.
Main Pop Girl energy is all about that flawless, high-maintenance glam that looks low-maintenance. To achieve that glassy, light-reflecting finish, pair with our signature Silky Spray. Throw on some metallic makeup, oversized hoops, and you’re mainstage ready.
Pastel Goth
The Pastel Goth vibe is soft but savage. Born from our favourite Tumblr pages back in 2014, this trend is all about looking sweet but dangerous. Add pastel pink or jet-black clip-in hair extensions for an instant edge. Pair with mesh tops, platform boots, and silver eye gems for a dramatic, festival-ready combo. Blending in is not on the set list!
Keep Your Extensions Pristine All Weekend
Clip in extensions instantly elevate your look by adding length, colour, or volume without the commitment. From ultra-long strands for braids and waves to colour streaks that make your outfit pop, they’re the secret weapon behind every viral, easy festival hair moment.
The best part? They’re versatile. Clip ins allow for quick changes between acts. Ponytail extensions give instant glam. One-piece volumizers add bounce and body without a full install. You can go subtle or go big, whatever matches your vibe.

Styling Tips for Surviving the Desert
The desert heat doesn’t play, and your hair routine shouldn’t either. Start with a solid base: always apply a few spritzes of our Heat Protectant Spray before using tools. Styles like braids, slick buns, and space buns hold up well under heat and movement.
Accessorise for flair and function. A bandana tied over the crown adds sun protection and boho vibes. Hair gems add sparkle under stage lights, while bucket and cowboy hats double as accessories and UV shields. As the sun sets, transition your style with ease. Start with soft waves during the day, then slick it back into a pony or wrap it into a bun for a night of dancing. One look – multiple styles with clip in extensions!
