The best hairstyle for Thanksgiving

How you style your hair for the Thanksgiving holiday is really a matter of preference. For some a casual, yet classic look may suite the day best and for others something chic and sophisticated may be more appropriate. Here is a super easy way to get either look or both from a simple ponytail.

Start by smoothing and straightening 2 inches of hair just around your hairline with a ghd styler. Pull all of your hair straight back and secure loosely in a ponytail. Using a firm holding styling gel, creme or wax, (my favorite is ghd Precision Wax) apply generously to the top, sides and ponytail. Use the palms of your hands to smooth the hair flat to the head, now pull the hair into a tight ponytail that sits just below the occipital bone of the head and secure tightly with a covered elastic band. This look will give you the casual feel of a ponytail together with a classic sculpted style.

Now if you desire something more chic and sophisticated, simply twist the ponytail clockwise until tight like a rope and then wrap tightly around the base of the ponytail. Continue wrapping until the entire ponytail is wrapped around the base into a chignon, adjust with fingers and secure with bobby pins.
