Earlier this month, Molly-Mae Hague had us all rushing to book salon appointments after sharing a series of selfies showing off a brand new ‘buttermilk’ blonde hair colour. What we didn’t know at the time was that the star was secretly showing us a new hair project she’s been working on.
“Finally, I can share the secret behind the blonde….” Molly-Mae shares in a series of new snaps posted to her Instagram, before following up with her ‘exciting’ news. This week, the 25 year old has teamed up once more with hair extension pros Beauty Works to launch two new shades of blonde extensions to give fans her exact hair colour.
“I feel like I’ve been that annoying person who has been teasing something new in regards to hair for ages,” she says. “I’ve been saying something new is coming for months, and finally, I can tell you what that new thing is. Excitedly, I am bringing out two new hair shades with Beauty Works.

“I had my original shade, shade Molly-Mae, and you guys loved that one so much, and it did so well. So now I have three shades out with Beauty Works, which is so exciting. I really wanted to bring out a highlight and a lowlight because it’s the colours I have in my hair right now. We have a shade Glacier Blonde and a Swiss Blonde. Glacier is the lightest shade in my range, and it’s like a gorgeous creamy platinum blonde. Swiss Blonde looks a little dark, but it breaks up the lighter blonde and makes it look more natural.”
Expanding on the new launch, the mum-of-one continues: “They’ve both created my favourite blonde I’ve ever had – I’ve never been happier with my colour. The new shades will be available in all extension methods: tapes, bonds, wefts and clip-ins.”
If you’re wondering what Molly-Mae’s choice of hair is, she says: “I have bonds. I love bonds, I’m just such a bond extension girly.”
And if you’re keen to order a few packs for yourself, it’s worth noting that apart from the wefts and clip-ins, you’ll need to head to a professional to have the hair fitted. The price will vary from salon to salon, but bonds are usually more expensive to have applied than tapes, since they take longer to fit. Tapes, on the other hand, are quick to fit but aren’t quite as invisible at the root as bonds.
Our head of beauty Zoe shares her expert-advised products to keep your hair soft, silky and tangle-free
L’Oréal Professionnel Metal Detox Shampoo, £19.99
This helps to protect hair from excess copper deposited from water, which can cause damage and impact colour results. It cleanses my scalp but leaves my ends soft and manageable. I promise it’s worth the price tag. Use it every week or so to make your colour really last.
Olaplex No. 7 Bonding Frizz Reduction and Heat Protection Hair Oil, £19.55
I’m an Olaplex girl through and through, and I never go a week without using something from the brand’s styling range. I love this oil for running through my hair once it’s styled. It really helps to keep my long extensions tangle-free and nourished.
Wet Brush Paddle Detangler, £6.49
I swear by my Wet Brush for helping me to get the knots out of my hair without pulling at the extensions. I leave my hair to dry a little before I do a first smooth over with the brush, and then once it’s fully dry, I brush my strands through fully. Since swapping to this brush, I’ve noticed much less shedding.
