Behind The Look with Jon Lieckfelt
Celebrity hairstylist Jon Lieckfelt was the mastermind behind Fran’s SAG Awards hair transformation. To create her ultra-voluminous look, he used two Sitting Pretty Halo Hair extensions in Medium Brown and Medium Brown 2/4—a game-changing trick that adds fullness and length while remaining lightweight and comfortable.
The Products Used
- Sitting Pretty Halo hair extensions (Medium Brown + Medium Brown 2/4)
- Heat protectant spray
- 1.25-inch curling iron
- Lightweight texture spray
- Shine mist
The Technique
1. Prepping the Hair
Jon started by applying a heat protectant and giving Fran’s natural hair a voluminous blowout to create a smooth, lifted base.
2. Stacking Two Halo Extensions
Instead of using traditional clip-in extensions, Jon opted for the Sitting Pretty Halo Hair method. By stacking two Halos, he achieved double the volume without any discomfort or damage to Fran’s natural hair. The extensions blended seamlessly, ensuring that her look remained natural yet full-bodied.
3. Styling for Maximum Volume
He then curled her hair with a 1.25-inch curling iron, alternating curl directions for soft, red carpet waves. This technique creates movement and prevents the curls from clumping together.
4. The Finishing Touches
To lock in the style, he lightly misted her hair with a lightweight texture spray for hold and volume. Finally, a touch of shine mist was added for that glossy, camera-ready finish.

Recreate The Look At Home
Want to include Fran’s red carpet-worthy hair in your everyday routine? You can achieve her signature volume in minutes with the Sitting Pretty Halo Hair stacking technique. Here’s how:
Step 1
Start with freshly washed, blow-dried hair for the best results. Use a heat protectant to shield your strands from high temperatures before styling.
Step 2
Place your first Sitting Pretty Halo Hair extension around the crown of your head. Adjust the invisible wire for a snug, comfortable fit. Make sure The Halo has already been pre-cut to complement your current hair length!
Step 3
Layer a second Sitting Pretty Halo Hair extension directly beneath the first for added volume and fullness. The seamless blend ensures a natural, lightweight feel—no clips, no glue, no damage.
Step 4
Use a 1.25-inch curling iron to create soft waves. Alternate curl directions to add movement and prevent the curls from sticking together.
Step 5
Finish with a lightweight texture spray and a shine mist to lock in your look and add a glossy, polished look.
Whether you’re heading to a special event or just want to elevate your everyday hair game, stacking Halos is the ultimate volumizing trick that’s celeb-approved.
