Holiday hairstyles are a special category in hairstyling, especially for girls. On a special occasion, every girl wants to look attractive and appealing. While mothers often choose quick and easy hairstyles for their daughters on a daily basis, creating a special occasion hairstyle requires a bit more effort. We present 8 trendy hairstyles for girls in 2027.
Girls' Hairstyles for the Holidays: What Moms Need to Know
Children's hairstyles for special occasions differ significantly from those for adults, so avoid creating overly complicated hairstyles that will be difficult for them to manage. Children's hair is much finer and more delicate, and lacks strength and resilience. Keep this in mind when creating a special occasion hairstyle.
- Avoid overloading your child's head with too many hair clips and pins. They're unlikely to like this type of hairstyle.
- The hairstyle should be as light as possible, the child should hardly feel it
- Strands of hair should not get in the way, get in the face, or fall apart with any movement. Tight braids are also not suitable.
- Don't follow adult hairstyles as an example, opt for airy braids, twists, and ponytails.
- Be sure to take your child's opinion into account when creating a hairstyle.
We offer you the TOP 8 stylish holiday hairstyles for girls that you can easily recreate yourself.
1. High bun with braid: a festive hairstyle for a girl
This style is ideal for those with long hair, allowing for a voluminous braid. To create this style, you'll need:
- comb
- 2 rubber bands
- a bow hair clip or other pretty hair clip
How to do:
- gather your hair into a high ponytail
- Divide your hair into 3 sections and braid it into a regular braid
- wrap the braid around the base and secure it with an elastic band or bobby pins
- Release some strands of hair to create a voluminous look
- Decorate your hair with a bow or other pretty hair tie
2. High ponytail with braiding for medium hair
Braiding is the easiest and most accessible way to create a beautiful hairstyle. Gather your hair into a high ponytail, and then do whatever you like with it.
- do a fishtail braid«
- do a reverse braid with voluminous strands
- make flagella and decorate them with colored rubber bands
3. A girl's hairstyle for a holiday: waves and curls
Those with medium or short hair can try creating a beautiful wavy hairstyle. This can be achieved using a curling iron, flat iron, or rollers. Secure the hair with hairspray. To keep the curls out of your eyes, secure them with a hair clip.
Curls are possible on long hair, but they can be quite challenging for a child. This hairstyle is appropriate if the party doesn't involve active play or dancing.
4. Girls' hairstyles for short hair for a holiday
Short hair can be quite challenging to achieve a beautiful hairstyle. The length of the hair doesn't allow for voluminous braids or waves. The best option for short hair is to create two ponytails. The ends can be curled slightly.
To offset the length of your hair, use pretty elastic bands and bows. Hairstyles with grosgrain ribbon bows look great.
5. Ponytails with elastic bands for the holiday
Hairstyles with small, colorful elastic bands have become very popular lately. They look both simple and beautiful. Similar hairstyles were already popular in the 90s, when these brightly colored elastic bands first appeared.
To create this hairstyle you need:
- part your hair in half
- separate a small strand of hair and secure it with an elastic band
- take a new strand of hair, add the first strand to it and also secure it with an elastic band
- continue this weaving until the end
- repeat the same braiding with the second half of the hair
If desired, you can loosen the strands a little to create an effective voluminous braid.
6. Flagella for a girls' party
Bundles look much more impressive than regular braiding. They look great with a festive outfit, are easy to create, and can withstand even the most active play.
- separate a strand of hair at the top right and make a tourniquet
- gather the rest of your hair into a ponytail and add the top strand to it
- From the main strand of hair, also make a tourniquet and secure it with a beautiful elastic band
Twisted braids can be used in any hairstyle, complementing voluminous braids, waves, and other styles. It's important that the strands of hair used to create the twists are identical. This will ensure the twisted braids are even and beautiful.
7. Braiding from the face: a beautiful hairstyle for medium and long hair
A braided hairstyle that leaves the face open looks great for both casual and formal wear. When the focus is on the face, the look is especially beautiful and sweet. Mom's task is to pull some hair away from the face and create a striking braid.
This could be a classic French braid, a reverse braid, twists, a fishtail, or other styles. The remaining hair can be styled to the side to accentuate the side-swept look, or tucked into a voluminous braid. The photo collection at the end of this review offers many interesting ideas for similar hairstyles.
8. Waterfall hairstyle for long hair for a holiday
A loose hairstyle looks great with a long formal dress. The waterfall hairstyle is popular in adult fashion, but it also looks great on children's hair. You can see an example of this style in the photo below.
When creating a waterfall hairstyle, it's important to braid it so that it's neither too tight nor too loose. The braid shouldn't fall apart after the first dance or active play.
Hairstyles that shouldn't be given to children for a holiday
We've already mentioned above that it's not advisable for children to have adult hairstyles. They'll look awkward and overly pretentious. The list of taboos for children's looks also includes:
- Greek style hairstyles
- boho-style hairstyles
- Mohawks made from braids and weaving
- braids plus braids and other hairstyles that are completely unsuitable for a child's look
Every mom should have a few beautiful and simple hairstyles she's confident in creating. Choose a few beautiful hairstyles for yourself and your child from the photo collection and try them out in your free time so you can create them without any hassle or fuss on the big day.
