The Holiday Event: Best Friend’s (or any friend’s”> Bash
What you’re going for: Fun & Flirty
Try: Glittery, Beguiling bun
How to get it: When your gal pals throw a party, the invitation screams all-night fun. You want a style that’s festive, flirty but still out of your face, as you make your way onto the dance floor, yet again.
Cutler suggests a disheveled bun, with a glimmering holiday twist!
First, gently pull your hair back into a ponytail, but “don’t make it perfect — keep the curly texture and movement,” Cutler says. Next, head to your local arts and crafts store for a small container of glitter (try red or green for a seasonal theme — gold or silver for extra shimmer”> and simply toss it inside the ponytail and sprinkle it on the top layer of your curls. Then, twist the ponytail into a messy bun and secure it with pins.
“When the light hits your curls, the glitter will create a reflection and sparkle,” Cutler says, “and that will give the look a really festive feel.”
As the night wears on, you can always release the bun to let your hair down . . . and the glitter fly — yet another way to make your holidays sparkle!
