Curled Quinceanera Hairstyles

Curls add to the beauty of Quinceanera hairstyles.


A Quinceanera is an important time in a girl's life; it marks her transition from childhood into womanhood. It is important for the girl to look and feel her best, as this is a once-in-a-lifetime event. Her hairstyle plays a large part in that role. The latest fashion trends in Quinceanera hairdos, according to Quinceanera.com, highlight the girl's natural features and use waves, curls and textures. There are different curled Quinceanera hairstyles from which to choose.


Curled Up-Do With Adornments


A traditional way to wear Quinceanera hair is in an elegant up-do with curls and adornments. The best way to achieve this is by applying a shine serum to clean, dry and smooth hair. Leave 1/4 of hair down around the face and gently pull the rest up into a high ponytail. Pull up the hair left down as well, twisting it slightly and pinning it up with the rest of the hair while leaving a few strands around the face. With a curling iron, curl all of the hair and pin it down just enough that the curls are showing but it will stay put. Curl the strands around the face and top hair off with hairspray. Many different types of adornments can be added to this style, such as a tiara at the crown of the head just in front of the mass of curls, or decorative pins added to the hair and into the center of the curls.


Long Curls and Hair Extensions


If you would rather wear your hair down, long curls look beautiful cascading down the back, especially combined with a strapless dress. According to Beauty and the Bath, natural, easy-to-tend-to hairstyles are very in-fashion for young women right now and work well when seeking a Quinceanera hairstyle. In order to achieve this look, purchase clip-in hair extensions to match the color of your hair. Follow the instructions as to apply them.


It is best to purchase real hair so you can curl it. When the extensions are in place, use a curling iron to curl the hair. To achieve a beautiful curl, the best way to hold the curling iron is upside down so the top is pointed towards the floor and the handle is above. Open the curling iron and wrap a section of your hair around it, starting with the hair closest to your head and closing the iron once you have wrapped your hair to the ends. Hold for several seconds and repeat until all hair is curled. Set with hairspray and add hair adornments if desired.


Half-Up Curled Hair


If you can't decide whether to wear your hair up or down, wear a half-up hairstyle. As written on Mis Quince online, professional hair artist Ken Paves says (in regards to half-up hair) that it "has a princess feel to it" and that it is "a fairytale look." If this is the look you are going for, half-up hair is a good choice. To achieve the look, start off with clean, sleek and dry hair and top with a shine serum. Next, pull your hair back on the sides and away from the face. Secure hair with an embellished barrette or pretty pins. Curl hair with a curling iron until all hair is curled and top with hairspray.
