Christmas festivities are one of the best times to elevate your look and dare to try more elaborate hairstyles. To help you make the right choice, we've gathered the season's essential trends, considering face shapes, hair lengths, and difficulty levels. The goal? A successful, comfortable, and unforgettable hairstyle for your Christmas evening.
How to choose the ideal Christmas hairstyle?
Before even deciding if you prefer an updo, a braid, or glamorous waves, it can be helpful to consider your face shape. This allows you to select a hairstyle that will truly highlight your features.
- Oval face: all hairstyles suit you, so take the opportunity to vary your styles.
- Round face: favor hairstyles that add a little height or length.
- Square face: opt for soft and airy looks to soften the angles.
- Rectangular face: play with lateral volume to balance the length.
- Triangular face: prefer hairstyles that bring softness around the face.
Once this foundation is laid, let's move on to inspiring ideas for all lengths.
Christmas hairstyles for long hair
Long hair offers a multitude of possibilities. Christmas is the ideal time to adopt a romantic, sophisticated, or simply glamorous style.
The crown braid
This braid that encircles the head is ideal for highlighting the face. Easy to achieve and very elegant, it brings a bohemian chic charm perfect for the holidays.
The loose and curly ponytail
A classic revisited for Christmas: create pretty curls, tie your hair in a low ponytail, then let a few strands fall loose.
Sparkling accessories
If you're short on time, leave your hair down or gently curl it and add an accessory: a golden barrette, a jeweled headband, decorative pins... They instantly transform a simple hairstyle into a festive look.
Christmas hairstyles for medium-length hair
Versatile and easy to style, medium-length hair allows for a variety of styles. This year, wavy textures and loose hairstyles are particularly trendy.
Wavy + side braid
Soft waves combined with a loose side braid create an elegant and feminine result. A perfect hairstyle to highlight your profile.
Easy twists
Separate two sections on each side and twist them backward before securing them. A quick, refined, and ideal hairstyle if you're short on time.
Express accessories
A soft blowout, a few waves, and an accessory are enough to transform your hairstyle into a true festive look.
Christmas hairstyles for short hair
Even short hair can be enhanced for Christmas with a few well-chosen touches.
The chic headband
For a short cut, the headband is a holiday essential. It clears the face, adds a festive touch, and structures the hairstyle.
Opt for a sparkling model, in satin or adorned with pearls to accentuate the Christmas spirit.
So, what hairstyle to choose for Christmas?
Hair up or down, glamorous waves or an elaborate updo, romantic braid or sparkling accessory... Christmas is the perfect occasion to unleash your creativity and feel fabulous all evening long.
The main thing is to choose a hairstyle that matches your style and in which you feel comfortable. Don't hesitate to do a trial run a few days before, or ask your hairdresser for advice if you want a flawless result.
So, ready to shine under the Christmas lights? 🎄✨
