Holiday Hair
{five ways to style your hair this holiday season}
You found the dress. And the shoes. Even the jewelry. But, now you need to figure out the finishing touch: how will you style your hair? It seems this is a question worthy of great concern – you want something special, but don’t want to spend hours doing your hair or wearing it the same way you do every other day.
So, here are the hairstyles we’re most inspired by (and trying ourselves for the holiday celebrations on our calendar):
Chignon with a twist. A classic chignon is always appropriate, but we love this loose version that captures the beauty of the season so perfectly! Simply twist sections of your hair on the right and left; pin in place and then style your hair into a chignon as usual. For helpful photo tutorials, we recommend this one on The City Sage or this one by Capitol Hill Style.
Put something sparkly in it. If you’re not up to styling your hair in a fancy way, just pull your hair half up and then add in a sparkly headpiece {tutorial here}. You can even add a seasonal flower – or even a piece of mistletoe – to your hair for a true holiday look!
Vintage curls. Yet another classic: bold, soft waves. Besides, this tutorial makes it look so easy!
Fake it. For the women with curls or waves, use your natural texture to style a chic faux bob. Here are nine celebrity looks for inspiration a tutorial. Really, you just need a few pins, hairspray and some patience!
When in doubt, copy the French. We’ve shared this tutorial before, but it’s just so pretty and so simple, we wanted to link to it again!
