Holiday Hair

pssst...anyone out there? I know it's Saturday but I need to share something. I have been looking near and far for some easy holiday hair ideas. This is particularly important today because we are headed to a few festive parties this evening {ps. I think today was the "it" day for Holiday parties -we were invited to 7 for this day alone!}. Any who, leave it to Martha to come to my rescue. I might just try this today...

Step 1:

Using a round brush, blow-dry hair smooth and straight, focusing on the top sections.

Step 2: 

Once dry, use a large-barrel curling iron to create waves from the ears down.

Step 3:

Build height and volume at the crown by teasing hair gently with a fine-tooth comb.

Step 4:

Gather hair into a low ponytail. Twist it along the nape of your neck, pinning as you go.

Step 5:

Once you reach your ear, shape the remaining hair into curls, and pin them back over the twist.

Step 6:

Spritz strands in place.

Step 7:

To add texture, gently curl and scrunch the wispy ends with your fingertips.

And you're done!
