It’s almost the holiday season, and you feel ready to party! But is your hair? Nights out sharing gifts with friends or schmoozing at the office party are the ideal opportunity to show off a new do. Here are our top, on-trend holiday hairstyles for women in 2022, from retro-inspired bouffant dos to brilliant blowouts.
The “Up” Ponytail
Swing your head over and tie your pony high! This holiday hairstyle works great with straight hair in a single, sleek high pony, or with curly hair in a half-up, half-down style. Cover your hair ties with a festive ribbon for a simple party-ready look.
The 60s Bouffant
The Bridget Bardot-inspired 60s bouffant is sure to be big this holiday season in more ways than one. Artfully tousled long locks, high on top and framed with “just out of bed” waves, this is one of those “bed head” styles that’s never gone out of fashion.1
The Modern Bouffant
It’s easy to bring that 60s style bang up-to-date. Keep the texture and volume, but combine it with elegant, sleek hair instead of the tousled look of the original. Use a simple headband to position your style, or be stricter with bobby pins galore to keep it pinned firmly in place.
The Blowout
The blowout is a deceptively simple style ideal for big holiday parties and intimate get-togethers with friends.2 Blow-drying your hair while brushing it into a loose, voluminous style help create a big, bold look that suits most lengths of hair. Plus, it’s ideal for adding interest to hair that’s usually very straight or lacking in volume. Remember to use a heat-protectant product when using a blow dryer.
The Bling Look
Whatever style you decide to go for, use hair gems, sequins, or diamante clips and grips to bring some glamor and glitz to your hair. Gems are ideal for slicked-back holiday hairstyles, like a tight bun or a sleek pony or plait. Consider a glitzy barrette or other wide-tooth clip for gathering curls loosely. The advantage of these larger clips is that they’re easy to take out if the party gets going and you want to let your hair down.
Anyone can get the winter hairstyle they want, and plenty of hair extensions and hairpieces are available for those needing them. If you’re looking for the perfect hairstyle this holiday season, Genesis II can help! To schedule a free consultation, click here.
