BONJOUR DAH-LING!

It’s that time of year again when snowflakes fall, champagne sparkles and your hair begs to do the same. Lucky for you, with the right hairstyle guide and products, you can put the ‘style’ back in ‘hairstyle’ all season long! Here are our favorite festive looks that range from glitter to glam.

Favorite Holiday Party Hairstyles

1. Glitter Chic

This look is all about that sparkle. It’s time to shine brighter than a Christmas bauble and make heads turn at every holiday soiree. 

Step 1: Prep Your Hair: Start with freshly washed hair. Apply a generous amount of Number 4 Reconstructing Masque to add that much-needed moisture and resilience.

Step 2: Add Glitter Gel: Create a side part and apply a glitter gel. Spread the glitter evenly from the part to the ends using the N4 wide-tooth detangling comb.

Step 3: Secure the Style: Gather your glittery tresses into a low ponytail and secure them with a hair tie. Finish off by thoroughly misting with Number 4 Mighty Hair Spray for long-lasting hold and shine that will certainly last longer than the bubbles in your glass of fizz!

2. Classic Updo

This hairstyle is all about elegance with a festive twist. It’s perfect for a sophisticated holiday gathering or a New Year’s Eve bash and can be accessorized to add more of a dramatic feel.

Step 1: Prep and Protect: Start by applying a generous amount of Number 4 Super Comb Prep & Protect to damp hair.

Step 2: Twist and Pin: Gather your hair into a loose, low ponytail. Twist the ponytail into a bun and secure it with bobby pins.

Step 3: Add Festive Flair: To add a festive touch, accessorize your bun with a sparkly hairpin or a sprig of holly. Maybe be even more daring and pop in a little mistletoe! Then, lock in your look with Number 4 Mighty Hair Spray and prepare to pucker up!

3. Sleek Side Braid

This hairstyle exudes elegance and simplicity, making it perfect for both formal holiday dinners and casual get-togethers with friends and family throughout the festive season.

Step 1: Prep Your Hair: Apply Number 4 Fluoro5 Elixir Restore & Repair Oil to your hair to keep it smooth and frizz-free throughout the styling process.

Step 2: Create a Side Part: Use the N4 Detangling Comb to create a deep side part. Then, gather all your hair on the opposite side of the part.

Step 3: Start Braiding: Begin a three-strand braid from the base of your neck, securing it with a hair tie at the end.

Step 4: Add Holiday Sparkle: For a festive touch, weave a thin, sparkly ribbon into your braid or wrap it around the base of the braid.

Step 5: Set the Style: Finish your look with a few spritzes of Number 4 Mighty Hair Spray for a lasting hold and added shine.

And voilà! You have your Sleek Side Braid ready, adding a touch of sophistication to your holiday ensemble.

There you have it, Dah-ling, three festive hairstyles that will surely be the talk of every holiday party. 

Remember, whether you’re going for Glitter Chic, Classic Updo or a Sleek Side Braid, it’s all about having fun, feeling fabulous, and letting your hair do the talking. So let your hair down (or up!) this holiday season. You’re about to give the Christmas lights a run for their money!

Firm Hold Gel

I’ve been using the No.4 Jour d’automne firm hold gel for 8 years and have no plans to switch it up as every time I’ve tried another product it has fallen short.

Thank you for the review and glad to hear you are enjoying the Firm Hold Gel!

I received this for free as a winner of a social media contest. I've used it in damp hair and air dried while keeping my hair in a certain style or grabbing large pieces and curling with my hand. Kind of funny this is described as not sticky, since before reading anything about it, that was the first characteristic I noticed - extremely sticky. It's very awkward to put on hair and doesn't spread evenly unless I wet my hands. Once my hair is dry, the style does stay, but my hair texture is not natural-feeling at all. I don't usually use styling products but I've been trying to get into them more, so I'm grateful for the free product, but I'm not as impressed as with other No. 4 products.
