Looking for some simple ways to get your hair holiday ready? I got ya’ girls! I was back on Home & Family TV sharing 3 easy, of-the-moment styles that are perfect for any festive occasion and will take you minutes to do (full segment below).
I wanted to make sure we covered all the bases so worked with short, medium and long styles.
Look 1: Exposed Bobby PIns
Get the look:
Step 2: Add texture spray to add volume and help curls hold the pins in place
Step 3: Gather hair at the crown and secure with pins. Then place exposed pins in whatever shape or design you choose

Look 2: Effortless Low Chignon
This is probably my forever go-to hairstyle because it not only super chic but works great with dirty hair, which is me, like always! There’s so many ways to do a low bun or chignon but this has to be the most full proof way and has totally looks red carpet worthy.
Get the look:
Step 1: You can start with straight, wavy or curly hair..this works with all textures
Step2: Section hair into 3 equal parts leaving out any face fringe you may want
Step 3: Bring the center part to a low pony (feel free to tease at the crown first if you prefer extra volume) & twist into a messy bun and pin into place
Step 4: Twist each remaining side over the bun to give a really soft undone look
Pics below of the step-by-step process:
Look 3: Ribbon Headbands & Ponytails
Ribbons aren’t just for wrapping presents! They’re making a big comeback and can be really elegant. They’re also not just for little girl hairstyles, although they’d make for the cutest mommy & me ‘do! Also works well with any hair length and can be worn as a ponytail too.
Get the look:
Step 1: If wearing your hair down I like to start with texture spray to help hold curls in place
Step 2: Create a little bit of a bouffant at the top & crown to give the look more of a sophisticated throwback look vs. a little girl finish
Step3: Take ribbon of choice, I find a satin finish to work the best for smaller bows, and tie it firmly to the front of your hair
