The Best Styling Products for Holiday Hair
By: Jaclyn Harwood
Unveil the secrets to stunning holiday hairstyles with our guide to the top pro styling products designed to enhance, hold and add a touch of festive glow. From glam curls, to high ponytails, chic looks or sleek up-dos, these styling essentials are key to creating your best holiday hair for the season. Are you ready to create?
PRE-TREATMENT
It's all in the set up. The foundation to an unforgettable holiday look starts with a quick detox treatment to remove product buildup, clarify, revitalize, and prep the hair for styling. Reach for Wella Professionals Elements Renewing Shampoo, formulated without sulfates and silicones and made with up to 99% of natural origin ingredients. The Elements Renewing Shampoo nourishes and revives the natural smoothness and shine of the hair from root to tip. This shampoo also gently cleanses the hair with a luxurious foaming experience, without stripping hair moisture. Ultimately, it restores hair vitality and shine for a healthy look and feel. HOW TO APPLY: Place a small amount on damp hair, massage, and rinse thoroughly.
Short on time? Try Wella Professionals ColorMotion+ Pre-Color Treatment. You might be familiar with this product to prep the hair before color services, but did you know it can be used prior to styling services, as well? ColorMotion+ Pre-Color Treatment enhances the hair surface, balances porosity, smooths, hydrates and adds shine. These key components are essential to long-lasting curls and product performance throughout the styling process. HOW TO APPLY: Spray Wella Professionals ColorMotion+ Pre-Color Treatment on unwashed, dry hair, concentrating on porous ends. Dry hair lightly with a blowdryer. Proceed with styling.
ROOT BOOST
Working at the very foundation of the hair, volumizers and root boosters elevate the look to a whole new level of glam. Literally. Check out these must-have recommendations to achieve the perfect volume, movement and texture in all your holiday styles.
After shampooing, apply Sebastian Professional Thickefy Foam. This weightless flexible styler creates the look and feel of naturally thick and voluminous hair. It's liquid-to-foam technology increases hair volume for long-lasting body and pliable hold making it the ultimate styler for people with fine, thin hair. We also love Sebastian Professional, Volupt Spray to achieve long-lasting, full-on volume, with root-lift technology to elevate the hair with a "soft to touch" finish.
Another product we can't get enough of for max volume is Wella Professionals EIMI Extra Volume Hair Mousse. Create perfect body and provide a strong hold to the hairstyle for a look that will last. This volumizing mousse formula helps protect hair against dehydration during the blow-dry process and gives voluminous support for any holiday style.
HEAT PROTECTION
Shield the hair during heat styling with Wella Professionals EIMI Thermal Image Heat Protection Spray. This professional hair spray is a two-phase formula, designed to protect the hair, while adding smoothness and natural hold. Phase 1: of EIMI spray nourishes the hair and provides heat protection of up to 220°C. Phase 2: leaves hair smooth for a flawless and shiny result.
Provide protection and add sparkling shine to hair with Sebastian Professional Trilliant Spray. Formulated with rock crystal extract, this lightweight hairspray gently conditions hair, protects the strands from heat, while leaving a little extra shimmer behind. An essential tool to bouncy curls and healthy hair.
HAIRSPRAY
Finish your holiday look with a variety of hairsprays to secure the style, while leaving the hair soft and touchable. One of our favorites is Sebastian Professional Texture Maker. This professional hairspray has a remarkably light formula, that allows the hair to expand to provide a versatile and reworkable texture. Enriched with sea salt crystals, Sebastian Texture Maker delivers a medium hold and a matte finish, enabling the creation of any shape.
Looking for another great choice? Try Sebastian Professional Shaper Hairspray. Numbers don't lie... it's a top seller for a reason and a heritage product that has delivered beautiful results for decades. This flash-dry, brushable hairspray has a lightweight flexible control that defies gravity. The finish of Sebastian Shaper is so light that you'll hardly know it's even there. Create a touchable, moveable style with flexible control and a beautiful satin finish.
SHINE
The finishing touch to any holiday hairstyle is SHINE and we can't get enough of these two products that deliver the perfect glow. Try Wella Professionals EIMI Glam Mist Shine Spray, and finish your glamorous style with dazzling shine. Formulated to protect the hair from humidity and UV. Or add, Sebastian Professional Dark Oil Silkening Mist to your styling kit. A lightweight fragrant mist, infused with a special blend of oils, including jojoba and argan oil, for added shine and a silky feel. The ideal choice before a blow-dry or for a finishing mist to complete the look.
