How many holiday events have you been invited to so far? Whether it’s a work party, a charity gala, a secret Santa with your family or a romantic date night, you’re probably already thinking about what you’ll wear. But have you even started thinking about what you’ll do with your hair? Don’t wait until the last minute to decide, or else you might end up wearing a Santa hat to the function.
Relax, we’re here to help.
Your holiday party hairstyle choice usually depends on four things: what kind of party it is, what you’re wearing, your hair type and your personal style of course! To make the holiday season less stressful and more fun for you, we’ve compiled a list of the best holiday hair so you can choose the perfect fit for your event and self expression. Just don’t forget to book an appointment at Jordan Alexander Boutique Salon so we can turn your favorite holiday hair idea into a reality.
TOP KNOT
If you like to wear your hair down but you’re looking for some added edginess, the top knot trend is exactly right for you. It can be dressed up or down and works with a multitude of hair types. It gives you the opportunity to show off your locks without letting any hair cover up your face.
HIGH-FASHION HAIR ACCESSORIES
This holiday season, we’re not playing it safe. After you’ve trimmed the tree, dress up your ‘do with something shiny too. BaubleBar has some hair pins that look like gift wrap, snowflakes and Christmas lights.
SHORT WAVES AND BRAIDS
Long-haired girls aren’t the only ones who can have fun and try new looks this holiday season! A bob with a deep side part, wild waves and two french braids works great for parties.
FISHTAIL
Fishtail braids are just always on trend. It must be because they’re so versatile. You can wear this look for a cozy night by the fireplace or pair it with your favorite cocktail dress on New Year’s Eve. The fishtail doesn’t require a ton of hair, so you can try it out even if you don’t have the thickest mane. You really can’t go wrong with this one.
ROMANTIC WAVES
This one is truly a timeless classic. Years from now, we’ll probably still be listing this one as a favorite style. The hair tucked back on one side looks effortless, and the waves are simple but beautiful. This look screams “sophistication.”
HOLLY JOLLY UPDO
Why be subtle about your Christmas cheer, when you can be festive instead? The updo is a classic, but you can make it seasonal by adding some holly or mistletoe decor. Leave pieces down in the front for a casual event, or wear it all slicked back for something more formal.
SLEEK HIGH BUN
With all of your hair slicked up into a neat bun, you’ll be able to show off your bone structure and makeup to the fullest capacity. This hairstyle is fashionable yet professional, so it would be a great choice for a holiday gathering with your coworkers. However, you can rock this stunning look anywhere.
BRAID INTO A BRAID
This hairstyle is so flawless, it looks like it belongs in a Hallmark Christmas movie. We love how the braid in the front flows exquisitely into a thicker braid.
BOW PONY
What’s more festive than making your ponytail look like a Christmas gift? This bow made out of hair is brilliant, and the high-pony trend isn’t going anywhere any time soon. Ariana Grade is shaking in her thigh-high boots as we speak.
CLEAN AND PINNED BACK
Sleek is chic this winter. Hiding bobby pins is a thing of the past. Now, they’re part of the look. The middle part will promote symmetry in your look, and the bobby pins will keep the front of your hair smoothed out and looking elegant.
Happy Holidays from Jordan Alexander Boutique Salon! We hope to see you soon.
