The holiday season is full of joy, magic, and special moments—but it can also be full of stress on your hair. Between cold weather, cranked-up heaters and endless styling for holiday events, your hair needs extra care to stay shiny and strong all season long.
Great hair looks require both healthy prep and a stylish finish, but don’t worry – we’ve got you covered on both.
Aveda’s Miraculous Oil High-Shine Hair Concentrate
This lightweight, silicone-free oil delivers instant shine, smoothness, and frizz control—all without weighing your hair down. Perfect as a pre-style treatment or finishing touch, it helps your hair look sleek, hydrated and healthy no matter what the season throws your way.
Aveda’s Abundant Blowout All-Over Volumizing Spray is the secret to your finishing step. This heat-activated spray does more than just boost volume — it instantly doubles your hair’s lift, delivers up to 24-hour hold, and shields from humidity while protecting your strands from heat up to 450°F.
Now, let’s break down your hair plan for every holiday gathering.
Prep Your Winter Hair Care Early: Strengthen, Hydrate & Trim
The best foundation for any style is healthy hair. Start your holiday prep early by treating your hair to weekly deep-conditioning masks and trimming any split ends. Not only will this help reduce frizz and dryness, but it’ll also make your holiday styles last longer and look smoother.
To enhance shine and softness, work a few drops of Aveda’s Miraculous Oil High-Shine Hair Concentrate through damp hair. This will protect your locks against heat treatments and give them a naturally radiant finish without greasiness or heaviness. Think of it as your “glow serum,” but for your hair.
Don’t forget about scalp care! A healthy scalp leads to stronger hair, so incorporate a gentle scalp exfoliant or massage with a nourishing oil to stimulate circulation.
Sleek and Sophisticated Looks for Office Parties
For office holiday events, aim for styles that are polished yet festive. Sleek low buns, voluminous ponytails, or silky blowouts strike the perfect balance of professional and celebratory. Start your style with Aveda’s Abundant Blowout All-Over Volumizing Spray on damp hair before blow-drying to for touchable volume without any crunch—ideal for all-day wear that transitions effortlessly from desk to dinner.
For a chic, elevated look, try a middle-parted low bun tied with a velvet ribbon or opt for a full, smooth blowout that shows off your hair’s shape and movement. No matter what style you go for, try lightly misting the volumizing spray onto damp hair, then round-brushing dry for maximum volume and bounce that lasts through every meeting and mingle.
Effortless Hair for Casual Gatherings and Cozy Nights
Holiday hair doesn’t have to be high-maintenance. For movie nights, cookie decorating, or casual brunches, choose styles that are cute, easy, and comfortable.
Think messy buns, low ponytails, or loose waves. These looks are even better when paired with a little shine. Run a small amount of Miraculous Oil through your ends to add polish and prevent static. You can also use it to refresh second-day styles by smoothing frizz or reviving curls.
Throw on a knit headband or scrunchie, and you’re ready for a cozy gathering in under 10 minutes.
Glamorous Styles for Formal Dinners and Family Photos
When it comes to glam, it’s go big or go home. For formal dinners and photos, use a curling wand or rollers to build big, bouncy curls. Before styling, mist Aveda’s Abundant Blowout All-Over Volumizing Spray onto damp hair to boost volume and create long-lasting body. This heat-activated formula not only amplifies your style but also protects your hair from heat damage, blocks humidity, and helps maintain lift and smoothness.
For updos or chignons, apply the spray during your blow-dry for fuller, more sculpted results that hold their shape throughout the evening. The result? Glamorous, full-bodied hair that looks and feels luxurious with zero stiffness.
