Megan Fox's Hairstylist Chris Dylan on Why She 'Isn't Afraid to Experiment' and How Extensions Make It Easy
Do what you want with your ‘do! Megan Fox’s hairstylist Chris Dylan, the expert behind the actress’ long, glossy locks for her return to Instagram last month, is spilling the secrets behind her ever-changing tresses with ET.
The main takeaway? Switching up your look doesn’t have to be overwhelming.
The pro, who has also worked with celebs including Nicky and Kathy Hilton, Audrina Patridge, Jasmine Tookes, Sofia Richie, Delilah Belle Hamlin, and Kelly Osbourne, says the key to changing your hairstyle comes down to one essential: high-quality extensions.
“As a stylist, I need products I can trust on my clients and on set, and Bellami consistently delivers hair that looks natural, styles beautifully, and lasts,” he shares.
“Whether they want longer hair, more volume, or a completely different vibe, Bellami makes it possible without compromising the health of their hair. It’s luxury hair that still feels wearable and effortless.”
His current go-to is The Halo Pro Hair Extensions, which provide a shortcut to achieving good hair days, every day.
Designed for quick transformations, the new launch features a RootReplica scalp-mimic design, FlexMesh construction for breathability, and a SiliconeGrip strip to keep everything secure.
“The Halo Pro is such a great entry point for people who have never worn extensions before,” Dylan explains.
“It’s one of those products that feels very professional but is actually super easy for anyone to use. You can essentially get celebrity hair in under five minutes,” he adds.
And while it can be this simple, make sure to never choose extensions that don’t camouflage with your natural hair in terms of color, density, or placement.
“The best extensions are the ones no one can detect. … When extensions aren’t properly blended, they can look obvious,” he notes.
Once you’ve found the right match, the fun really starts.
“You can add soft waves for that effortless It-girl look, pull the front pieces out for a chic half-up style, or create a full, voluminous ponytail or bun,” he spills.
“Because this hair blends so naturally, it gives the illusion that you just stepped out of the salon.”
The versatility that the line offers is exactly what fuels Dylan’s artistic process with the Transformers star.
“Megan is definitely someone who isn’t afraid to experiment. … She has a very strong sense of style and a clear vision, but she’s also open to exploring new ideas,” he dishes.
“She loves transformation and understands how much hair can change a look or a mood. Whether it’s dramatic length, a bold color moment, or a completely different style, she’s very open to pushing things creatively.”
For her latest look, the pair tapped into a little nostalgia.
“It was important to show Megan stepping into her own power, so naturally we brought it back to 2008/2009 with her signature lengthy 22″ soft black slept-in blowout look.”
And for anyone looking to channel that same energy, extensions are the ultimate beauty hack.
“Bellami lets you explore different looks without the long-term commitment,” the hair guru notes. “You can try anything without making a permanent change.”

Working off a laptop is great until you realize you only have two ports and need to plug something in. If you’re hooked up to an external monitor, keyboard, and mouse, you’re pretty much out of luck on the rest. Not only that, but your previously uncluttered desk will most likely look like a Best Buy exploded (a rat’s nest of cords isn’t cute or helpful for anyone getting work done).
If you literally hate mess and cords as much as I do, you need a docking station to hide all that chaos and protect your aesthetic. Right now, Anker’s Prime TB5 Docking Station is on sale for $339.99 at Amazon, down from $399.99. (That’s a $60 price cut.)
