How To: Fun Christmas Hairstyles
What better day to do magic with your hair than the day of cheers, Christmas! Whether it’s a lazy Christmas morning in front of the fireplace with your loved ones while drinking tea and eating cakes, or a social Christmas night with friends sipping champagne and tasting caviar, there is nothing merrier and more cheerful than this season.
5 Fun Christmas Hairstyles
Luckily, there’s a perfect hairstyle out there that can express what a wonderful time of the year this is for you. Here's our list of fun Christmas hairstyles!
1. For the socialite formals
With the holidays keeping you busy enough with decorating the house or buying and wrapping gifts, you might not have time to have your hair done in an elaborate hairstyle, let alone choose one.
A slick back high ponytail is chic enough to pull off for a high-class Christmas event, yet still simple enough to go with any style. You can even wear ponytail hair extensions to make your pony bigger and longer, thus more elegant. A thin shiny headband on your head or a pearl clasp on your pony would also look perfect for this season's vibrant spirits.
2. For the less formal parties
As an eternal classic with tens of styles to choose from, braids are a good option for a party hairdo. Regardless if you're having a garden party with friends and family or a beach party with acquaintances, you can never go wrong with braided hairstyles.
The braided halo is one such hairstyle–not too fancy, but always classy. And since your hair is kept up in a neat braid, you won't have to always sweep your hair away from your face or over your shoulder, allowing you to just enjoy the holiday cheer. If a fishtail is too difficult for you, a regular three-strand or a dutch braid can suffice.
If you want to add a more Christmas vibe to your halo braids, you can use small red and green flowers as accessories. Just make sure not to add so many that your halo braid will look like a wreath instead!
3. For the highlight event
The great thing about top ponies is that they don't care about the celebration, they just look good for any occasion. This makes it perfect to wear to your annual Christmas year-ender. After all, the messy top pony can match whatever you choose to wear and however you choose to celebrate.
Plus, since it’s a hairdo that’s messy on purpose, you don’t have to worry about your hair not looking good while swaying waltz with that cute guy from the office.
4. For that chill fireplace day
After an exhausting Christmas night where you share an overly sumptuous meal with your loved ones, it's no surprise if all you want to do is to just chill at home in front of the fireplace.
Perfect for lounging about, the loose half french braid is a romantic and relaxed hairstyle that you can wear both indoors and outdoors. It's not so tight that it pulls on your scalp, making it a very chill hairstyle indeed. To make it more Christmassy, you can also use a ribbon to tie it in place.
You can also wear halo hair extensions to give your hair more length and volume. It only takes a few seconds, a minute or two at most, to wear so it’s not a hassle to your chill day.
5. For a holiday downtime
With everything that’s happened this year, you deserve a day to slow down and relax to the lull of the jolly festivities around you.
Just take a small section on the top of your hair, enough to prevent any side hair from falling on your face, and knot it into a bun. It's the perfect hairstyle for just sitting on the sofa and watching your favorite soap opera on TV as you eat ice cream straight from the tub.
