Make sure your hair matches the dress or outfit you are wearing. If your dress or blouse has an open or low-cut back, pull your hair up to maximize it. Low-cut front? Hair down!
Make waves
Set your hair in the morning so that while running errands or working, your hair is setting into waves or volume that will be needed that evening. I'm not saying that you should go out like Carol Burnett in hot rollers, but you certainly can pull of braids, high-ponys, or even clipped up all around. Don't forget to add setting lotions to make those curves reveal themselves and last.
Decorate!
Bring on the hair ornaments! Remember, this is a season when decorations are everywhere--so why not add your own little twinkle to make a statement?
PS: This is the perfect time to get your makeup professionally done, so your one appointment before party should be with a fab artist that will get that winter wonderland look together for you.
Happy beautiful party season!
