Fun and Festive Holiday Hair

We survived Halloween, and it’s time to start to think about the next batch of holidays!

I’m always looking for Christmas season styles, mostly because it seems from November through December, there’s parties every single night.

Lona Vigi

We consulted Lona Vigi, the celebrity stylist for LiQWD hair products, and she said two looks she’s all about this season are the messy take on the classic chignon, and the modern pony. Here’s her tips on how to make them happen:

Classic Chignon (Messy Version)

This chic and sultry look is a modern take on the classic, a somewhat disheveled, looser version.

To give hair just the right amount of movement and keep it from being too close to the head, mix LiQWD SLiQWD and Professional Volumizing Catalyst and apply to freshly washed and well-towel-dried hair. Comb product through and put a deep side part in hair. Blow-dry with a medium round brush for a touch of body. Then, brush hair back into a low ponytail and fasten just above the nape of the neck.

Begin winding the hair around the base of the ponytail, securing it underneath and on top with
bobby pins as you go and leaving the ends out. It’s more modern to have pieces out for a look
that’s slightly undone. For a fun accent, use gold or colored bobby pins. Maybe, throw in a
couple with rhinestones.

The Right-Now Ponytail

Sleek and sophisticated yet playful, the pony is always a great party style. To smooth but not flatten hair and provide natural hold and shine, mix LiQWD SLiQWD and Professional Smoothing Catalyst and apply to freshly washed and well-towel-dried hair.

Comb through and part anywhere you like – side, middle, deep or shallow. Brush hair back into a smooth ponytail, not too high or low, right at the middle of the head. Leave the front pieces soft and sexy. If they’re shorter, let them fall out of the ponytail. Secure with a rubber band. Then, take a little section of hair from underneath and wrap it around to cover the rubber band.

Secure the end with a bobby pin–maybe, one with a rhinestone for a touch of festive flash!
