If you’re still struggling to decide what kind of hair you should be rocking this Christmas, here are some festive hairstyle suggestions from our team.
Sleek High Ponytails
The ultimate party do. This festive hairstyle is timeless because it’s simple, chic but oh-so-glamorous as well as easy to achieve with the right products.

From what you would typically consider gym hair, transforms into a red carpet-worthy style you can proudly rock at any holiday party. It’s perfect if you don’t want your hair in the way but still want that sophisticated look.
90’s Bouncy Blowout
From Cindy Crawford who made this style so iconic to Zendaya, the beautiful & bouncy blowout speaks VOLUMES. After two years of not having a good reason to go BIG and doll up, we’re glad to be able to recommend this gorgeous festive hairstyle to our clients. If you want to let your hair down, this is the best hairstyle to opt for.
Textured Beach Waves
It’s Christmas, but it’s also summer, and textured, beachy waves are always a good choice. Not only can you rock them on a daily, but they can also easily be transformed into a festive hairdo. It’s just so versatile and chic!
Festive Hair Bun
We’re still not letting go of messy buns. And why should we? It’s a good go-to hairstyle on a busy day, but it’s also fabulously wonderful as a festive hairstyle. Ciara, Rihanna, Emily Ratajkowski and many more beauty icons wear this look to premiers and red carpets. So why shouldn’t you? Best of all, no matter how crazy the party gets, you don’t have to worry about your do get messy.
Ariana Grande Half Updo
A vast majority of requests for a glamorous, trending updo always involve Ariana Grande’s name being mentioned. And we totally understand why. Her hair is always on point and is nothing short of hair goals. If you want celebrity hair but with a touch of laidback, soft, feminine vibe, Ariana’s half updo, like the one above, is a great choice. You’ll be looking like a princess in no time.
90s Bella Hadid Festive Hair Upstyle
Bella is known for setting fashion and hair trends, as well as bringing back beloved trends from the past and making them hot again. She’s rocked so many versions of this upstyle, with face-framing strands, the ‘porcupine’ bun, with clips or without them.
