Holiday Season Festive Hairstyles to Inspire You
Christmas is upon us – meaning it is time to get glammed up!
Whether you are going to a Christmas dinner party or doing a virtual Secret Santa with the family, every occasion calls for a festive look! After you are deciding on what type of outfit and makeup for the holidays, it is time to figure out the hair.
To inspire you, now scroll through our recommendations for holiday hairstyles, many of which can be achieved no matter your skill level, and some you could even replicate at the comfort of your home!
The incredible use of ribbons
If you are looking for an effortless chic holiday look, adding a ribbon to your hair can be a quick fix to your otherwise-dull ponytail. This will instantly jazz up your entire outfit with colors and give off a beautiful feminine charm emitting from that flowy ribbon.
Adding a hair ribbon makes your hair look more colorful, vibrant, and versatile. How many of you keep those famous store ribbons that attach to your shopping bags? This is your moment to recycle it.
There are many ways you can wear a hair ribbon. The simplest is to tie your hair into a low ponytail and simply tie your hair ribbon around the hair tie.
A hair ribbon made from silk not only creates an effortless elegant hair look for you but also provides gentle caring qualities to your hair. The Iles Formula Twilly Hair comes in three colors: Distinguée, Frivole, and Passionnée, and they are all created with silk and hand-made in France.
Alternatively, you can wrap your hair ribbon into your ponytail, creating an intertwined roll: French chignon. It looks spectacularly elegant in this cashmere season, elevating your entire look with just that little intertwined roll.
Our founder Wendy shows you this video on how to creatively utilize our magical Twilly Hair ties into this easy 3-minute chignon.
A hair ribbon can also be ingrained into a long hair braid, endowing your hair with a sense of graceful savoir-faire.

Timeless hair bangs
Bring the bangs back for the holiday season!
Bangs make one look younger and create an enviable luscious hair look. If unsure about cutting one, purchase a false bang and simply clip it in. The key is finding 100% human hair in the perfect color match.

As much as bangs frame your face with style and liveliness, unfortunately, they become greasy easily. Hence, using quality shampoo to cleanse your bangs properly is crucial.
The Iles Formula Shampoo gently cleanses your hair and scalp, instantly untangles your hair, and gives your hair a sumptuous and luscious texture.
Do not forget glowing accessories
Using jewelry on your hair can give your hair a feeling of divinity. Keep the accessory simple and chic. Brushed metal in rose gold or silver is a big trend. This U-shaped clip is the perfect accessory to anchor any up do in a few seconds.
