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.
