Here is a beautiful updo for Christmas with a pretty red ribbon laced through the strands to add some festive cheer. If you have a party coming up and are looking for something different, check this one out. This is super easy to create with a little help and how to. Hair is easier to manage and pull up if it is not freshly washed. Start out by pulling hair back and securing it into a ponytail, then take pieces and twirl them around and secure with bobby pins. You could add some thin braids and pull them around then into the style. The look should be messy and not so perfect. Take a thin ribbon and thread it through a large blunt end craft needle and weave it in and out of the hairstyle. You could also add beads and glitter.
