Holiday hair is about dressing for the occasion, the event and your outfit.

If your outfit is glitzy, glamourous, bold or anything close to a statement you should not take attention away from it with your hairstyle. A classic ponytail or a variation of the ponytail is the best compliment to your look.

Classic High Ponytail:

Pull all of your hair back into a ponytail at the highest point on the back of your head.
Before securing it use a fine tooth comb to ensure a smooth finish.
You can use a leave-in spray and the comb to remove any flyaways.
Secure the ponytail with a hair elastic.
For a ultra sleek look take a small piece of the ponytail and wrap it around the base to hide the hair elastic and secure with bobby pins.
Finish by spraying with hairspray to add shine and all night hold.

Sleek Low Ponytail:

Pull all of your hair back into a ponytail at the nape of your neck.
Use the same technique as with the high ponytail, using leave-in spray and a fine tooth comb.
Secure the ponytail with a contrasting color hair elastic.
Finish with hairspray for shine and hold.

Messy Low Ponytail:

Part your hair in the center.
Gather your hair at the nape of the neck.
Do not worry about bumps or flyaways.
Secure the ponytail with a hair elastic.
Gently pull pieces out and up from the ponytail base to create an unfinished look.
To create a more classic twist wrap a piece of the ponytail around the base and secure with bobby pins.

Low Ponytail with Height:

Part your hair on the center or side, leaving your bangs out.
From half way back to the base of your neck lift thin horizontal sections and gently tease the hair in the opposite direction it will lay to create height.
Gather the hair in to a low ponytail, just above the nape of your neck.
Do not smooth down the teased pieces.
Secure with a hair elastic and pull to tighten and create extra height.
Finish with a light hold spray to hold the height in place.

Wear any of these ponytail looks to your holiday event to compliment your statement outfit and makeup.
