Fun Curly Hairstyles For Formal Occasions
1. Curled Side Pony
If you have some length but don’t want to deal with touch-ups during the party, a sexy side pony might just be your thing. This look is created by brushing all of your hair to either side of your face as you collect your strands into one low pony. Smooth out any wayward strands with some gel and then create the curls in your pony with a curling wand. You can add really big curls or more subtle ringlets that you hold in place with some hairspray like Bed Head by TIGI Headrush Shine Hairspray. Enhance the look a step further by letting a curly tendril come out on the side of your face.
2. High Bun
This looks involves a puffy and dramatic bun that sits way up on the crown of your hair. You can opt to leave several strands out along your face or keeping everything tightly in place. We love this look for proms or school functions.
3. Soft Waves
We love the look of light, yet put-together curls. This look works on a variety of hair types, lengths and even ages where you create bouncy, beachy waves that have a ton of movement and body. This can be achieved by using some Nexxus Maxximum Finishing Mist to create loose and bouncy waves.
4. Natural Curls
On the other side of the spectrum, you may be a “natural curls, don’t care” kind of girl. We love that! Keep your curls natural and healthy-looking, a stunning style all day, every day.
5. Half-Up Hairstyle
The half-up/down look is a classic style that looks effortlessly put together. Enhance it by curling the looser ends, as the upper part is twisted together and held with a chic clip.
6. Top Knot with a Bun
If you want to add even more height to the half updo style, create a top knot to go with it!
7. Add a Bantu Knot
If you just want to add a fun accent to your curly hairstyle, why not add a Bantu knot? This is a fun accent to your look and is incredibly easy to create since it’s just one knot!
8. Loose Curls
Sometimes just a slight curl will do where you only need your ends to have a little wave. This look is created by using your curling wand to create loose ends. Don’t forget to use Dove Style+Care Smooth and Shine Heat Protection Spray to prep your hair heat styling.
