Festive holiday parties beckon when the temperatures drop and the days get shorter. These parties are the perfect time to wear gorgeous party dresses, metallic accessories and stunning shoes. This also is the time to create a glamorous hairstyle that will enhance the beauty of an elegant outfit. The key to a dazzling holiday look is to choose a hairstyle that works with your hair type.
Asian Inspired Twist
An Asian-inspired twist is an easy way to draw focus to your neck area and can work with any hair texture. This hairstyle works best on medium length hair. Place a dollop of texturizing lotion on the palms of your hands, and rub together. Run your hands through your hair, and distribute the hairstyling aid evenly. Use a brush to gather all of your hair into a low ponytail. Use one hand to twist your hair into a tight roll. With your opposite hand, wrap the roll around itself in a clockwise direction until you form a tight coil. Secure your new twist with jewel-studded hair pins, but leave the ends loose. Drop a bit of pomade on your fingers, and use it to define and fan out the ends of your hair.
Sophisticated Holiday Updo
A sophisticated holiday updo looks gorgeous on girls with straight or slightly wavy hair that is medium to long in length. Wash hair, and apply a hair styling lotion to your damp tresses. Blow dry your hair until it's dry. Mist sections of hair with a flexible spritz holding spray before you curl it, so that your curls will last longer. Set your hair in large hot curlers, and allow enough time for curls to form. Allow the curls to cool and tease them slightly at the root. Avoid teasing too much because it can frizz your new curls. Gather hair in a loose ponytail at the top of your head. Take each curl, and pin it in place with hair pins alternating the directions as you work. Bangs look best when they are swept off to the side. Finish this hairstyle with a glittery barrette on the side of your hair for a fabulous party look.
Make a Statement with Straight Hair
Straight-haired girls look stunning with shiny and sleek hair. Enhance your lovely tresses with a vintage-looking hair comb that has rhinestone details. A hair band that has small pearls, metallic beads or crystal accents also will draw attention to your hair's silky texture. Create a unique part in your hair by tracing a zigzag from your forehead to the back of your head. Style your hair as you normally do, but avoid touching the zigzag. Add glitz to this sleek hairstyle with an elegant hair clip.
Lovely Chignon
Any hair texture looks amazing when pulled into a chignon. Create a chignon by brushing your hair into a low ponytail. Secure short layers of hair with hair pins that have jewel or pearly accents. Use one hand to twist your ponytail into a tight coil. Place your hand at the base of the ponytail, and hold it while your other hand lifts the coil straight up against your head. Wrap the coil in a clockwise direction until you have created a half circle. Let go of the base, and hold the bun tightly with your hand as you form the chignon. Finish the rotation, and tuck your hands underneath the chignon. Secure your new chignon with tiny bobby pins. Stick beaded chignon sticks into your cute bun to enhance this lovely hairstyle.
5 Minute Updo
This glamorous hairstyle is a glamorous updo that is easy, and best of all it takes just 5 minutes. Apply mousse to your clean hair, and scrunch with your fingers. Skipping a shampoo or two will add amazing texture to your hair. If your hair is squeaky clean, create texture and volume by tousling your hair with your fingers as you blast it with your blow-dryer. Tease your front layers with your fingers to create height at the crown. Pull back sections of your hair into several uneven sections. Twist these pieces of hair together, and secure with decorative bobby pins. Place a rhinestone, pearl or jeweled hair clip on the sides of your messy, but sexy, updo. Or wear two black satin headbands to add an elegant touch to this hairstyle.
