The holiday season is on, and we are all puzzling over outfits, accessories, make up and hair, and I’m here to help you, gals, with the latter – I’ve prepared a whole bunch of amazing holiday party hairstyles that will do for a Christmas, a NYE party, from very intimate to office ones – here you’ll find everything trendy and dazzling!
Short Holiday Party Hair
Don’t think that if you have short hair, you have no chance to make it look special and holiday-inspired. Make a slicked back bob to stand out with a bit of 90s style, go for naughty curls all over, curl or flip out the ends and highlight your hairstyle with shiny or pearl hairpins or a statement headband for a glam feel.

Medium Length Holiday Party Hair
Medium length gives you more space for applying your imagination, and here you may go for waves and curls, straightened hair, a half updo with a lovely barrette or hair piece or even a low updo! Yes, a low updo, mainly a low bun (which may be a sided one) can be a nice solution if you need a very elegant look. Go for a sleek top or a zigzag part for a more creative look and voila!

Long Holiday Party Hair
If you have long hair, you can play with your hair a lot and create a unique look. Besides rocking your locks down, enjoying your natural curls accented with just one hair clip you may go for half updos, updos, ponytails and braids, and all of them teamed up together! I must say that sleek ponytails and low and top buns are on trend right now as we all enjoy 90s style. High ponytails with and without hair down is also a chic idea, and a bit of braided ponytails, twisted braids and bubble braids will be hot for a NYE party. Accent your ponytail with a rhinestone strand, highlight your bubble braid with shiny elastics or even glitter spray. Traditional elegant twisted chignons, top knots with locks framing the face (but a bit messy, of course) are always great for an elegant and chic outfit. Get more of these and other ideas below!
