A great holiday style that always looks chic is voluminous hair styled off the face with a headband. For a style like this, wash your hair with a volumizing shampoo and conditioner like Kenra Volumizing Shampoo and Conditioner. Next, blow dry hair upside down to give maximum volume to limp locks. Then, put large hot rollers throughout your hair and let sit until they cool (about 30 minutes). Tease your hair at the roots and smooth all the hair back off the face and secure with a headband. Spritz hair with a firm hold hairspray to give your look the staying power it needs to make it through the event.

Holiday Hairstyle #2: Ponytail

Another stylish look is the ponytail. The party perfect ponytail is a dressed up version of an everyday pony. This is a look that can take you from work time to party time very easy. To get this look: Run a flat iron over ½ inch sections of your hair at a time, making sure that you get maximum smoothness. Then tease the top of your hair at the roots to give a little lift. Next, pull your hair into a ponytail, smoothing out your teased roots so they are smoothed into the pony. Then wrap a section of your hair around the elastic to conceal it and secure with a bobby pin. From here you can leave it or dress it up with a beautiful hair accessory, it’s your call.

For a holiday event that calls for more of a dressed-up ‘do, try a chic updo. For an effortless, but glamorous look, pull your hair back into a ponytail. Split the ponytail into two and wrap both the pieces around the pony and secure with another elastic band or bobby pins; the messier the better. If any pieces fall out around your face, leave them or curl them with a large barrel curling iron to give the look dimension. Spray the entire style with a light hold spray like Paul Mitchell Soft Spray, which will finish your look without making it stiff or sticky.

With all these stylish holiday hair choices, you should be able to switch your look from one party to the next with ease. Have a great holiday, and more importantly, great holiday hair!
