Pearl Headband

Nothing says “holiday” like a dazzling hair accessory. A pearl-encrusted or jeweled headband is the epitome of festive glamour, as you’ve probably noticed at every party this season! Not only does it elevate your holiday hairstyle with its added pearls or prints, but it also helps maintain those perfect curls for an extra day. Keep it sleek and simple with a narrow, glittery band.

Velvet Bow Sleek Ponytail

A chic high ponytail is a timeless choice, but for the holidays, why not add a touch of drama with a luxurious velvet bow? Start by pulling back your clean, dry hair into a high ponytail and secure it with an elastic band. For a subtly vintage feel, use a round brush to flip up the ends of your hair and apply hairspray for added volume. Complete the look with a velvet bow tied at the base of your ponytail.

Faux Pompadour

Make a statement with this daring faux pompadour hairstyle, perfect for those willing to step outside the norm. While it requires plenty of hairspray and backcombing, the result is undeniably unique and effortlessly cool. Create volume by back-combing the front section of your hair and secure it with pins, then slick back the remaining section. Finish with a hard-hold hairspray for a lasting hold, while faux locs offer a protective style for your natural hair.

Funky Braid

 

This funky braid is a fusion of styles, combining elements of a waterfall braid, asymmetrical flair, and a half-up look. Ideal for thick and voluminous hair, it’s essentially an upgraded French braid with a twist. Rather than adding hair to both sides, focus on one side for a unique asymmetrical effect. Secure the braid with a hair tie once you’ve braided all the front sections of your hair.

Classic Topknot Bun

 

Embrace elegance with a classic topknot bun, perfect for any occasion. Begin by pulling your hair into a high ponytail and loosely wrapping it around to form a bun, securing it with bobby pins along the way. Add texturizing spray for a relaxed, youthful vibe, and gently pull out small sections of hair around your head for a softer, textured finish.

Half-up, Half-down

 

Elevated Fish Braid

While we all appreciate the classic allure of a simple fish braid, imagine if there were a way to elevate its charm even further? Begin by incorporating a hair oil into your routine to impart a luminous shine and shield your strands from heat damage during straightening. > This hairstyle has the power to elevate your aura. If you resonate with a similar vibe, it’s bound to accentuate your allure. This refined fishtail accent braid not only keeps your locks away from your face but also introduces a delightful interplay of smaller braids and gentle waves, imparting depth and dimension to your overall ensemble.

Luxurious Blowout

A voluminous blowout always commands attention. Consider employing a dry shampoo to amplify your hair’s volume and texture. Opt for a weightless formula designed to absorb excess oil without leaving any unwanted residue behind. Apply it generously at the roots and tousle with your fingers to revive your locks for a rejuvenated appearance. If you prefer a more understated elegance without any flashy embellishments, the bouncy blowout might be your ideal choice.

Effortless Chignons

The timeless allure of the chignon epitomizes sophistication and grace. Nothing exudes the essence of a New Year’s soirée quite like a chic chignon—it serves as the perfect canvas to showcase your statement jewelry, bold lipstick, and neckline of your favorite dress. Moreover, it’s a hairstyle that gracefully complements mature women, making it less suitable for younger individuals. Customize this look to frame your face by incorporating loose bangs or a delicate front fringe. For an added touch of romance, adorn your chignon with a delicate flower, as depicted in the image

Ethereal Waves

If your holiday aesthetic leans towards fairytale-inspired glamour, then cascading waves are an impeccable choice. What’s remarkable about this hairstyle is its simplicity—it requires no hot tools to achieve. Instead, create effortless waves by generously applying a styling lotion to damp hair and allowing it to air-dry in two or three loosely braided sections. This hairstyle boasts easy maintenance and minimal fuss, making it perfect for beginners. However, I recommend selecting the technique that best complements your hair type for optimal results.

Cascading Waterfall Braid

The waterfall braid isn’t just reserved for bridal fantasies; it effortlessly transitions into a captivating party hairstyle. Ideal for those who prefer to keep their tresses free-flowing yet desire a touch of glamour while keeping hair off the face, this half-up do ticks all the boxes for a party-perfect look. Whether you’re gathering with friends or attending a soirée, this hairstyle guarantees to turn heads.

Sleek Wavy Ponytail

For natural brunettes seeking a subtle yet impactful transformation, consider embracing an inky black hair color for a show-stopping holiday allure. Begin by applying a smoothing blow dry cream evenly throughout your strands. After blow-drying, spritz on a hair perfector for added shine and protection. Next, straighten your hair and divide it into three sections—two on the sides and one in the center. Gather the central section into a sleek ponytail and secure it firmly. Then, cross one side section over the ponytail and secure it in place. Repeat the process with the remaining side section. For a contemporary twist, use a flat iron to create subtle bends in the ponytail, imparting a touch of modern elegance to your holiday ensemble

Elegant Updo

Elevate your look with a sophisticated updo that adds a touch of class to any occasion. Whether you prefer it perched high atop your crown or nestled lower near the nape of your neck, the classic updo offers versatility and timeless charm. Begin by applying pomade or a hair serum, then create a sleek side part. Gently comb or brush your hair, ensuring a polished appearance along the sides. Gather the hair at the crown, allowing for some volume, and decide on the desired tightness of your updo. Secure it elegantly with a twist or a sleek knot, and complete the look with a spritz of medium to high-hold hairspray for lasting perfection.
