We are thrilled to have been featured in a look on last nights Met Gala in New York, USA! Our Tape Extensions in the color 6N/11N/9NB was worn by the beautiful model, actress and singer Suki Waterhouse. She was styled by Owen Gould, who used our Tape Extensions to create this effortlessly chic look with natural movement and a sun-kissed glow. We are beyond thankful for this amazing opportunity to showcase our products and we are hopeful to be able to do it again!

Suki Waterhouse - Tape Extensions 6N, 11N, 9NB. This hairstyle features long, tousled layers with curtain bangs and blonde balayage highlights, creating a soft, effortlessly chic look.
Get the look from Owen Gould:
"I was excited to partner with BHBD extensions to achieve Suki‘s ultimate voluminous Met Gala hair. I used their Seamless tape in extensions in the color 6N/11N/9NB Balayage. This allowed for the perfect mix of a shadowed root beautifully fading to a brighter blonde. The overall effect we wanted to create was a sun kissed lived in blonde. Starting at the nape and working my way up towards the crown, I took ultra thin sections and sandwiched two of the seamless tape ends on top of each other. After the installation was complete and we had achieved the fullness it was time to go in and personalize the cut. I used a combination of scissors and a feather razor to achieve the desired length and also to blend them into her natural haircut. The final result was a 70s style shag that perfectly matched the vibe of her, Michael Kors gown." - Owen (@owengould)
What is the Met Gala?
The Met Gala is an event to fund money for the Metropolitan Museum of Arts Costume Institute, and every A-list celebrity attends in the most haute couture and luxurious outfits. It is an absolute honor to be a part of the event and everyone wants to be there!
Every year the Met Gala has a special theme and dress code for the night. This year the theme was "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style", which is the name for the Costume Institutes exhibition that will run from May 10th to October 26th. This years dress code was "Tailored for you", meant to focus on menswear and is “purposefully designed to provide guidance and invite creative interpretation.” It was really interesting to see every celebrities take on the theme and the styles they wore! We obviously had an extra eye open for the hairstyles at the event and we picked up on several trends that we thought characterized the night.

Hair trends we picked up from the Met Gala 2025:
• Sleek, Glass-Like Hair
The sleek, hyper-glossy look was one of the standout trends on the carpet. Think ultra-shiny, smooth buns, polished ponytails, and sophisticated updos that reflected the light beautifully.
Examples: Kylie Jenner, Bee Carrozzini, Paloma Elsesser.
• Statement Hats & Headpieces
Hats and headwear played a major role this year, adding drama and personality to the looks.
Examples: Zendaya, Teyana Taylor, Rihanna.
• Romantic Waves & Vintage Glam
Glossy, old-Hollywood waves brought a touch of vintage sophistication and glamour. With soft, brushed-out curls, this look was pure red-carpet elegance.
Examples: Jenna Ortega, Monica Barbaro, Kim Kardashian.
• Soft Waves & Natural Texture
Soft, effortless waves embracing natural texture were another key trend, creating a relaxed yet polished feel. These looks balanced casual charm with understated luxury.
Examples: Suki Waterhouse, Kendall Jenner, Hailey Bieber.
