Ariana Madix's Fiji Hair Secrets Revealed
13 Jul
Summary
- Fiji's humidity tested hair products and extensions.
- Stylist used two large suitcases for extensions.
- Favorite look was the 'premiere Bond girl blowout'.

The recent conclusion of Love Island USA has revealed the hair secrets behind host Ariana Madix's stunning looks, thanks to her stylist Carl Bembridge.
Bembridge, Bellami's official extension partner for the season, emphasized the challenges of the Fijian climate. He found Color Wow Dream Coat Extra Strength to be a crucial product, describing it as a "raincoat for the hair" that combats humidity and maintains smooth styles. To achieve Madix's varied looks, he packed two large suitcases of Bellami extensions.
He explained that extensions help build structure, enabling styles to last longer and photograph better, particularly for Madix's naturally straight hair. Among his favorite looks were the "premiere Bond girl blowout" and an "editorial fringe moment." Another standout was the "Bemb-shell Blowout" from episode 21, which received significant online praise.
Collaborating with Madix, Bembridge tailored hair to her outfits and the episode's tone. He also noted the "Modern Mermaid" trend, featuring 24-inch extensions and a soft, wavy style, which has already gained traction online and is being called the "hair look of the summer."
