Easy Last-Minute Hairstyles to Ring In The New Year
1. The Bun
We have yet to hear that the beloved top knot has failed anyone! If you’re attending a super fancy fête, this will call for a bun that is sultry and neat. After all, you do want to look like you spent time on your hair. Use Suave Professionals Moroccan Infusion Styling Oil to add shine to your hair before creating your updo. Brush hair up into a high ponytail, secure with a hair elastic, wrap the ends into a bun and pin in place. Set your style with shine spray like Bed Head by TIGI Masterpiece Shine Hairspray and hit the town running.
2. The Sleek Low Ponytail
Taking cues from the wet hair trend, give your ordinary ponytail a chic update with this sexy take on the look. Smooth a generous amount of hair gel (we like Nexxus New York Salon Care Exxtra Hold Sculpting Gel) onto the base of your hair, and brush through to spread. Gather your hair into a super low ponytail, apply some more gel to the lengths of your hair, then take a section of hair to wrap around the base of your ponytail for an elegant finish.
3. The Curly Pineapple
If you have curly hair and you think leaving your curliecues out won’t stand a chance while you’re ringing in the new year on the dance floor, consider giving the pineapple updo a stylish update as pictured above or this one by Mini Marley. An easy way to recreate the look: Refresh your hair with Nexxus New York Salon Care Conditioning Mist, then smooth Suave Professionals Moroccan Infusion Styling Oil all over your curls to add shine and lock in moisture. Gather your curls into a super hight ponytail and allow your front facing curls to cascade towards your face like bangs. What we love most about this style, you don’t have to do anything when you get home besides take off your makeup. Your hair is already covered! Need more inspiration for ringing in 2017?
