One of the best things about the holiday season is the parties! It’s your chance to be merry and bright. At Dosha Salon and Spa in Portland OR, we love to help you sparkle for the holidays. Whether you’re heading to the office party, a celebration with friends or even just a special night with your love, a holiday do makes the occasion even more festive. Here are the holiday hair and makeup trends we’re seeing and how you can achieve the look.
Holiday Hair Vibes
The Fishtail Bun: Add elegant drama for that office party. You just straighten your hair and part it on the side. Sweep it back into a low ponytail and then weave a small section into a fishtail braid. Twist your un-braided pony into a bun and wrap the fishtail braid around the base. Fair warning—it takes up to 50 bobby pins to keep it snug!
The Half Bun: Pull the top section of your hair into a tight bun and tuck up any loose ends. You can do it on your crown or base of the neck or halfway in between. It’s that easy.
Side Swept Waves: Create large bouncy waves with a large barrel curling iron. Make a deep part on one side and then secure the back (by your neck) with bobby pins.
Crimped, Braided Pony: Just blow your hair out straight and put it up into a high pony. Remove a section of hair on each side and braid them upward until they reach the ponytail. Tuck the braids in. Crimp the hair in your pony. Wrap a piece of hair around the elastic and secure it with a bobby pin.
Slicked Back: Apply gel at the front of your hair and brush it straight back. Secure the sides with bobby pins right behind your ears to help it stay put.
