A simple ponytail can make a perfect formal hairstyle for your special event.

Formal Edge on a Ponytail

This woman shows us that this easy hairstyle can look chic. A side part with a low and long pony with a piece of fringe pulled out in the front can look plenty sexy. This is just the ticket for the hectic Holiday season when one may not want to spend a lot of time on hair.

This is a beautiful and formal vintage inspired hairstyle worn by Natasha Bedingfield in the picture of her taken at the 50th Annual Grammy Awards in Las Angeles, Ca in Feb. 2008. Her medium length blonde locks are softly curled and styled just like we may have seen on Hollywood stars back in the 1940s. If you are looking for something other than an updo for a special event, then this one is certainly worth considering. Hair is parted on the side with one side being tucked behind the ear while the other has a spiral roll across the forehead. A large barrel curling iron can be used on completely dry strands to get this look. Rather than brushing through them, use fingers to style and gently brush from underneath if necessary.

Graduation Hairstyles

With graduation being just around the corner, one might be wondering about some hairstyle ideas for this special event. These two girls have incorporated up to date waves and curls with their caps. Since the hat comes down to a point on the forehead, it is easier to go with a bang-less style, but the gal on the right shows that it is possible to do bangs as well. She has hers parted on the side and brushed over and her hair is tucked back behind her ears.

Wild and Messy Updo

If you like something a little different, messy, and fun for a formal hairstyle, take a look at this one. This woman is dressed in a gown for a special event, yet she looks like she enjoys life and has a good time which is reflected in this funky big hairdo. Something like this would be easy to create by taking sections of hair and winding it around and then securing it to the head leaving big loops. Leave some pieces out and wind them around the outside of a large barrel curling iron to add interest. This is one of those that might attract those who like to live on the wild side.
