4 speedy holiday updos

 
 
Updos are the perf solution: they keep your hair out of your face and look super pretty. Here are our fave speedy styles for any special occasion.  
 
The style: Messy bun
Perf for: Curly or wavy hair
Sometimes a messy look can still be totally chic.  Gather hair into a pony at nape of your neck, on the side.  Let a couple loose strands fall into your face.  Twist into a bun, and set with bobby pins. Hit it with hairspray to finish it off.
 
The style: The Grecian
Perf for: Curly hair
For curly girls, the goddess look is a perfect hairstyle to tame ringlets.  Work in a curl-defining cream, then pull a one-inch section on either side of your face (above ears) to meet in the back of your head. Secure with a pretty barrette or bobby pins. Use a soft-hold hairspray that will keep curls in place, but still leaves them loose and shiny.  Straight-haired chicas can try this style with two braided sections.
 
The style: Looped Pony
Perf for: Straight or wavy hair
Pull all hair back into a ponytail at about the middle of your head. Secure with an elastic that matches your hair color. Create an opening right before the elastic band, loosening up your hair a bit. Loop the ponytail through the hole, which will create a twisted effect on either side. Pull hair to tighten for a super shiny style that keeps your strands out of the way.  
 
The style: The Frenchie
Perf for: Medium to long straight hair
Channel Audrey Hepburn by sporting an elegant French twist. Part straight hair on the side and slick it back with a small amount of gel.  Gather hair into a ponytail at the nape of your neck. Start twisting the ponytail upwards until it forms a tight right. Lift the “rope” up and tuck ends into the fold that’s created, and use bobby pins to hold it in place. Finish it off with a strong hold hairspray.

MOD MOD MOD please!!! I have naturally thick hair but we permed it, and I usually wear it down or curl it. Are there any other ways I could do my hair to switch it up?

MOD MOD MOD. I have a bit past the shoulders, wavy, dark brown hair. I had it layered at one time so I kinda have to flat iron it before putting it in a pony so it doesn't stick out. It's really thick and sometimes my really thick elastics break. Are there any ways I can manage my hair or styles I can put it in?

 

Hey girl! Yes there are endless possibilities with long hair like yours! Try checking out hair tips under beauty on our website! You should learn to embrace your curls and wear your hair down wavy! Try adding some more curls with a curling iron to spice it up! You can even put your hair halfway back by pulling a few front pieces back in a clip! Goodluck girl! XOXO

I have a friend with medium length dirty blonde hair. Its kind of curly and wavy. She wants to know other ways she can wear it to look cute for her new bf. Her hair is about 2-3 inches below her shoulder.




Hey chickie,

Her hair would look so cute if she pulled the top part up (like in a half-up-half-down style) and secured it in the back with a pretty clip! She can go with a ponytail for a more sporty vibe, or dress it up with a lacey headband if she wants to go girly. She could also use a flat iron to straighten her hair for a totally sleek look Smile

MOD!! My hair is medium-brown and straight. My skin tone is fair-medium. I am thinking about getting dark brown lowlights but some people say it will make me look emo-which I'm not. How can I get lowlights that show up without them being black? Thanks




Hey girlie. I don't think lowlights will make you look emo at all. But remember, once you get lowlights, it takes time to get back to your natural hair--make sure you are ready for the change.

MODMODMOD!! Help! So my hair is about 3-4 inches past my shoulder, medium-thick, and I always wear it wavy. The color is a strawberry blonde and I have swoopy sidebangs. BUT what I really need to know is how to put my hair in a messy bun without it all falling out. And if it doesnt fall out, the bun is a weird shape. Could I pleasepleaseplease have a link to a tutorial/website that shows me how to put my hair in a messy bun that would work for my hair type?? Thanks!! xxx

 

Hey girlie. I can't send you to another site but try messing around with your hair and trying new styles. Also bobby pins and hairspray help ; )
