Christmas is here, and with it comes the busiest party season of the year. Whether it’s the office party, a get together with friends to ring in 2017, or a family celebration, it’s the perfect opportunity to go all out and get glammed up.
The key to creating a flawless party look is gorgeous hair. As one of the first things people notice, great locks can make or break an outfit.
To help give you some inspiration on party looks, stylists at top Birmingham salon, Rush Hair, have been sharing their knowledge on the must-have party styles of the season. As award-winning regulars at events like London Fashion Week, and industry leaders in cut and colour, the Rush Hair team are experts in keeping up with the latest trends.
Hair up
If you want to pull off the elegance as seen on the likes of Kate Middleton, a gorgeous up-do is definitely for you. They can be tricky to recreate yourself, though with practice they are often easier than they look.
For added party points, Rush stylists suggest adding accessories such as decorative beads or metallic clips to draw attention to your look.
Curls
From vintage curls to retro waves, curls are always in style this season. So embrace the kinks, and live life large, like Kate Hudson and Salma Hayek have been spotted doing this season.
Using GHDs, start by curling your locks tightly, and then don’t be afraid to brush through with a wide-tooth comb or your fingers to loosen and create more of a wave than ringlets. Rush stylists would definitely recommend that this Christmas, the look shouldn’t appear too polished.
Braids
Braids and plaits are this season’s must try trend. From sleek, small braids, to the larger fishtail, you can achieve a huge range of styles. Sienna Miller, Blake Lively and Kate Bosworth have all been seen rocking this look lately, and it’s one we’re absolutely loving.
Rush stylists see Christmas’ braid look as edgy and sassy. If you’re nervous about braiding, they recommend not including all of your hair in the braid, and instead leave some out for a look with attitude.
Done, undone
One of the lasting trends Rush have seen throughout this year has been the ‘I just woke up like this’ look. Join the likes of Kylie Jenner and Jessica Alba by embracing this trend, and let out your wild side.
From messy buns, to full bed head, the Rush stylists know that there is a version of the style that will suit any outfit and hair type. Keep your tousles in place with lashings of hairspray, and if you’re in doubt as to how to recreate this look at home, visit the Rush Birmingham salon for a helping hand.
