Confession: I’ve always hated winter. Those first few flakes of snow that spark utter delight in my friends and family kind of fill me with dread. Three months (or more!) of short days and long nights? Freezing on the walk to the train, only to sweat bullets in my heavy coat during the commute? Bare trees and gray skies? Color me unimpressed. But there’s one thing about the wintertime that even I can’t resist: The holidays—and more specifically, holiday hairstyles.
I love the general goodwill and cheer, the food, the parties—and the glam. When you’re a beauty lover, you have yet another reason to think of the holidays as the most wonderful time of the year. Has there ever been a better excuse to bust out shimmery eyeshadow and a bright red lip than a holiday party? (No. No, there has not been.)
