Holiday Haute Chignon with Motions Hair

I’m in all my holiday happy glory right now! Ya’ll know how I feel about Christmastime, right? LOVE IT!!!! I must admit though, I have never had a year in which my shopping wasn’t complete by now. Truth be told, I’ve barely started! But as you can tell from the lack of blog posts, a sistah has been busy! So….I’ll be out with the hoards of people doing all their last minute shopping the few days before Christmas. But it still doesn’t squelch my joy for the season! Thank you God for sending us your son!

Anyway, as we approach the holidays I wanted to share a quick and easy updo that is perfect for not only Christmas, but New Year’s as well! It takes all of five minutes to create (seriously!) and you only need a few tools: an elastic band, a few clip-in hair extensions if your hair is short like mine, some hair pins and the finishing touch, some jeweled spin pins! Watch as I create the style below, plus a better look at my new hair cut and length.

I used the Motions Hair Straight Finish 3-step straightening system (see full review) to achieve the straight bouncy look you saw at the beginning of the video; I love those products and have used them on both my “real” hair and on curly and wavy extensions. I always get consistently great results. Also, don’t forget to smooth the edges and nape of your hair with a soft holding pomade like Motions shine enhancing pomade and add a bit of shine with their oil sheen spray for the final polishing touches.
