From snow fort making to holiday baking, nothing says winter like frolicking (or speed walking) through the elements on your way to class or Christmas and New Year’s parties. With the busy rush of the holiday season, you’ll need a hairstyle that will “weather” your schedule and suit any occasion.
Luckily, a new season brings new hairstyles and trends suitable for events, both casual and classy. From boho braids to delicate curls and updos, this article will ensure that you never have a bad hair day again!
1.
Textured ponytail: Not only will this messy pony keep your ears warm, but it’s also a universal hairstyle for just about every hair type. The teased ponytail makes thinner hair look full and enhances natural body and length. The layers in the front frame the face and add definition to the front of your hair and not just the back. And this style works for every occasion, whether you’re wearing it with leggings and an oversized sweater or a sequin mini for New Year’s. This hairstyle is sassy and simple all at once!
2.
Curly half updo: This curly half-up half-down style is the perfect balance between casual and classy! The lush curls add flow and body to your hair, while looking effortless. The twist adds style and flare to the bouncy curls and prevents you from frequently running your hands through your luscious locks. This look is also great for second day hair or fallen curls. Just curl, twist and snap into place and you’re out the door in no time!
3.
Messy bun: As finals approach, this hairstyle will become your ultimate go-to! Not only can it be done in 1 minute, but it can also be worn with anything from sweatpants to sweaters! Once securing the bun with a ponytail and a few bobby pins, pull out the hair surrounding the bun for a more relaxed and volumized look. Then, pull out a few shorter pieces from the front to frame the face and you’re good to go!
4.
Side braid: If there’s one hairstyle from this list you can’t go wrong with, it’s the side braid! A side bread is great because it allows you to style your hair using minimal heat, which is a huge plus in these winter months where hair can get worn out. This style can be dressed up or dressed down. No matter what look you’re going for, be sure to gently pull out the top and back of your hair to add a little volume. Throw on a beanie or add some sparkly hair accessories and you have yourself a bombshell look!
5.
Twisted bun: The twisted bun is the solution to your holiday party hair crisis! This classy and elegant look will wow at any family or friend function and requires minimal work and stress. If you want to make the look more relaxed, try going for more volume on top and pulling out layers in the front. Adding a unique hair brooch completes the look and serves as an excellent accessory to complement your outfit.
