FEAUTURE:

5 Elegant & Easy Ways to Style Your Hair for the Holidays

 

LET IT DOWN SHEEN
@dulcecandy

Lustrous and full of shine, letting your hair down can be a super elegant move that complements any dress or top.

DOMINIK’S PRO TIP:
Make sure to smooth out your hair and flyaways with Actives™ Enhancing Shine Serum. After blowing out hair, add a dime-sized amount to hands and rub together. Starting at mid-hair shaft, run fingers through to the bottom of the hair. Using the palms of the hand, spread excess serum gently onto the top parted area of your hair to tame flyaways.

CURL MAGIC
@rock_yo_rizos

Whether you’ve got natural curls or need a little hot styling tool action to get the waves rolling, curly hair is always a classic look for the holidays. All you need is some sparkly jewelry and a satin dress!

DOMINIK’S PRO TIP:
Moisture is a curly girl’s best friend! Taking oils and nutrients for a healthy scalp should be your first step. Although curly hair may not need as much shampoo as other hair types, conditioning treatments are a must. 

Load up on more moisturizer post-shower with Saturate™ Hydrating Leave-In Treatment. Section hair before you moisturize to help the process go along more quickly. Smooth the moisturizer into hair from the roots down to the ends. After moisturizing, section again, this time combing through to get out any knots or kinks. Then — this is where the magic happens — while hair is super moisturized, start twisting your curls with fingers to lock them in. Do this all over your head. The smaller the section, the tighter your curls will be. Apply a heat protectant and then blow dry or diffuse. Voilà, gorgeous curls galore!

BONUS: The bigger, the better. The more you touch your hair and shake out the roots, the bigger hair will be.

BRAID + BUN FUN

DOMINIK’S PRO TIP:
On dried hair (if it is your second day of not washing, this style will hold even better), spray a generous amount of Back to the Beach™ Texturizing Mist into the hair. Scrunch hair and run your fingers through it to create some texture. Start on the braids. Create two separate fishtail braids starting at your part and bring them slightly to the back (near your ponytail line). Leave a small section in the front loose. Add a ponytail and loosen up the individual braid sections to add more width to each braid. Roll into a nice full bun and give it some texture by pulling at a few pieces so it is not too tight and a bit messy. Now, get back to that piece in front and give it a little curl so it frames the face nicely. Give it a spray with Moveable Hold Finishing Hairspray.

TOP KNOT MAGIC
@maryamnyc

A sensationally chic way to dress up your evening look and add a touch of star power. Kendall Jenner and Queen Latifah do it. So can you!

DOMINIK’S PRO TIP:
For these tight sleek top knots, first prep hair with a silkening shampoo and conditioner that will reduce frizz and make hair sleek. Then while hair is slightly damp put Supersilk™ Pure Indulgence Leave-In Treatment in your hair and comb through to further reduce frizz. Once you have blow dried your hair and brushed it smooth, lift your mane up top, secure with a rubber band and tightly twist the ponytail into an intricate looking geisha knot. Use an old toothbrush with hairspray to sleek back your hair and any flyaways.

SLEEK LONG PONYTAIL
@camilacoelho

For off- the shoulder dresses and tops (especially a satin or silk number!) go upscale glam with your ponytail.

DOMINIK’S PRO TIP:
To make a ponytail more upscale and sophisticated, be sure to flat iron bangs to make them as straight as possible. Do the same with the rest of your mane to smooth hair and make a statement of sophisticated and sleek. Apply Moveable Hold Finishing Hairspray for added all-over shine, and Actives™ Enhancing Shine Serum. To finish, add Shimmer Spray in Gold or Silver to your skin and hair for a hint of glamour to your evening look.
