00:00Christina Hall's name is synonymous with flowing strands of long, blonde hair. But without
00:05her extensions, we're ready to bet she could pass even the biggest flip-or-flop fan on
00:10the street and they wouldn't look twice.
00:12Lush waist-length locks are Christina Hall's signature hairstyle. As she explained on Instagram
00:17in 2024,
00:18"...one of my feel-goods is long hair."
00:21Over the years, she's detailed how hair extensions help her achieve this stunning look. But in
00:26August 2023, Hall announced that she'd partnered with Lush Locks by Latitude, and she gave
00:31fans a glimpse of what her hair looks like before any extensions are attached.
00:36The HGTV star's natural hair had plenty of face-framing layers, with longer lengths in
00:41the back down to her shoulder blades. Although Hall's extension-free style looks dramatically
00:46different, fans did spot that she and her daughter, Taylor El Moussa, looked even more
00:50like twins than usual. While people praised both looks, they had particularly heartfelt
00:55words for Hall's before style, as one wrote,
00:58"...I actually love your natural look. Beautiful."
01:01Another commented,
01:02"...I'd love to see you go more natural. You are so stunning and don't even know it."
01:06In November 2023, Hall gave fans an even longer look at her extension-free hair. Unlike her
01:12Instagram followers, however, Hall discovered her family was not as supportive.
01:16"...My sons were like, oh, you have a bob. And I'm like, isn't it cute? And they're like,
01:21no, we want your long hair back."
01:23Similarly to her kids' relief, Hall revealed in the video's caption that she was going
01:26back to extensions.
01:28Of course, 2023 wasn't the first time Hall shared her love for hair extensions on social
01:33media. As she enthused on Instagram in March 2021,
01:36"...I definitely have an obsession with long thick hair."
01:40In the post, Hall also revealed she had a family connection to her preferred salon since
01:45her former sister-in-law, Angelique El Moussa, owns it. Hall even noted that on one occasion
01:50in 2024, she and her ex-husband, Tarek El Moussa, bumped into each other at the salon.
01:56In August 2024, Hall also chronicled a trip to the salon that she took with her daughter,
02:01Taylor. As if to showcase the shared resemblance Hall's extension-free look has with her daughter,
02:06the HGTV star provided a side-by-side comparison during their joint appointment.
02:11The Instagram video clearly shows that Hall's hair length is just a part of why they look
02:15so alike. After Hall got some new Lush Locks extensions and Taylor got some partial highlights,
02:21the product of their new looks highlighted their many other shared features in the final
02:25reveal. While she's definitely a hair extension devotee, Hall's also been candid that continuous
02:31extensions have sometimes damaged her hair in unspecified ways. Even though opinions
02:35differ on the pros and cons of the various ways to attach hair extensions, the American
02:40Academy of Dermatology does advise people to take frequent breaks from using them.
02:46In contrast, Hall admitted she's worn extensions pretty continually for a decade, and her enthusiasm
02:50for them appears to be going strong. In a February 2023 Instagram video collaboration
02:56with Latitude, Hall showcased her feelings about her natural hair.
03:00I feel like this could be better."
03:02Luckily, fans of her shorter hair can always rewatch early episodes of Flip or Flop. Back
03:08in 2013, Hall's blonde hair barely brushed her shoulders, and its overall cut and style
03:13were very similar to her current look without the extensions. Additionally, a 2014 promo
03:18for the show reveals a slightly longer length for Hall without any extensions.
