Finding the perfect holiday hairstyle is conundrum we can all relate to. With the hustle and bustle of the season upon us, your hairstyle should be the least of your worries. Below, looks that are both glamorous and a cinch to pull off.
The Ponytail
The ponytail is making a comeback and can easily go from day to night. The trick to making it work? Elevating the look with accessories. We’ll be channeling Karlie Kloss, who donned a black ribbon tied neatly into a bow for a recent gala in NYC. To complete this look, add fierce black eyeliner and finish with a spritz of Aveda Air Control.

The Braid
The fishtail and the crown are two braids anyone can pull off. Both are chic, easy-to-replicate styles that look complex (but truly aren’t). This video breaks the double fishtail down step-by-step, in a format that’s easy to tweak for a single fishtail.

For the crown braid, separate hair into two sections and braid each (using the classic three section technique you mastered in grade school). Then simply secure both braids on the top of your head with pins to create the look of a crown.

The Tiny Topknot
Whether you call it the half–up topknot, the baby bun, or something else entirely, it’s a perfect way to get an on-trend look without having to set aside hours of primping time. After securing the top half of your hair into a knot or bun, curl or straighten the bottom half. To avoid frizz and soothe dryness, smooth a few drops of Aveda’s Dry Remedy Oil onto your ends.

The Textured Wave

Wearing your hair down is always a safe bet, and adding a bit of texture takes things to the next level. Swoon-worthy waves like the ones above are perfect for those have extra time in the morning, but not the evening. Simply curl your hair before work and 8 hours later, they’ll have fallen just enough to easily touch up before a big night out. Voilà: easy, effortlessly gorgeous waves.
