Dazzling Holiday Hair: Pro Tips for Stunning Styles
The holiday season is here, and we all want to shine at family gatherings and parties. However, managing changes in hair color and texture can be a challenge. Let’s dive into some expert tips and tricks to style your hair beautifully, maintain your hairstyle, and keep your color vibrant for those spontaneous holiday events.
Quick and Fabulous Holiday Hair
Instant Color Fixes
There are golden rules for achieving sleek, modern-looking hair, and these rules evolve as we age. One of the most crucial aspects is ensuring your hair color is fresh and ready for holiday gatherings. However, getting a last-minute touch-up can be tough when everyone is rushing to see their hairdresser. Don’t worry; there are solutions to keep you looking your best.
If your roots need a quick fix, consider using a root touch-up spray or powder. Choose a product that lasts all night and won’t stain your pillowcase. A reliable option is SURETHIK 4-in-1 Hairline Powder. This versatile, talc-free powder offers a natural-looking finish, blending seamlessly with your hair and staying put all day.
Style On the Go
When a last-minute invitation pops up, you want to ensure your hair looks fabulous. Dry shampoo is a great option for a quick refresh. Hairstory Powder is fantastic for quick hair fixes and more formal affairs. This dual-purpose, super-finely grained powder is perfect for styling a quick updo, creating a voluminous finish without needing to backcomb. Use it at the roots to remove excess oil and add volume by puffing to build a long-lasting body.
Maintain Healthy Hair Daily
Looking good for special occasions is great, but why not ensure your hair looks its best every day? Start by nurturing your hair. As our hair turns grey or white, its texture changes, becoming coarser and drier. Investing in home hair care is the first step toward ensuring a soft, beautiful look.
Quality Shampoo and Conditioner
Use a high-quality shampoo and conditioner to clean your hair without weighing it down. PURA D’OR Scalp Therapy Shampoo and Healing Conditioner are excellent choices for a gentle yet effective cleanse.
Hair Masks for Extra Nourishment
Consider using a hair mask between your shampoo and conditioner. A good mask will be vitamin-infused, so apply it to your scalp and throughout your hair. Follow your mask with conditioner to seal in extra nourishment. This step adds life back to winter-dried hair.
Dry and Style Your Hair
If hairspray makes your hair stiff and unmanageable, the best solution is to prepare your hair properly after showering. Start by blow-drying it section by section, beginning underneath and working your way upwards, preferably with a good round brush. Use a styling gel or foam before drying to add body and bounce. As you work through your hair, you can build body and volume without much effort.
Decide whether to keep your hair sleek and straight or add some waves or curls. Holiday hair should be fun and confidence-boosting. There are numerous hairstyles suitable for any occasion. Here are some looks we love for long, short, or curly hair. You can keep your hair down or create a fun updo. To elevate your look, add some clips or a headband that enhances your outfit. Have some fun with it – the holiday season is the perfect time to live it up.
Holiday Hairstyles
Holiday hair isn’t one-size-fits-all. From beautiful updos to short and spunky pixie cuts, the options are endless. Work with your hair length and texture, and consider the event and what you’ll be wearing. Remember, any event is what you make of it, so put your best foot forward and have some fun!
Long Hair
Long hair is increasingly acceptable and versatile for women over 50. If you want to wear an updo, keep it simple rather than stiff and sophisticated. We love a simple chignon or a sophisticated ponytail with some natural volume. Both styles work great for casual and formal events and can be worn with jeans and a blazer or a lovely cocktail dress.
