Hot Holiday Updos

We're down for updos this holiday season. Here's why: Whether you have short or long locks, a simple sweep here and a tuck there instantly transforms an everyday look into a sleek party silhouette. 

You can also match your mood to a variety of updo styles:

Flirty French twist--Roll and fold a ponytail upward until it turns in on itself, but allow a few loose strands to caress your face.

Bold bouffant--Tease your hair to add height and drama.

Sophisticated chignon--Tightly pull the hair back to create a classic bun.

Check out the latest red-carpet updos.
