Buns are a super chic way to amp up just about any outfit and are easily one of our favourite hairdos this season. But if you aren’t a fan of sleek buns, then this one on Malaika Arora is just perfect. We love the braided low bun and textured front, both of which give this hairstyle a very effortless vibe.
02. Cutesy low ponytail

Love experimenting with cutesy hairstyles? You definitely need to give this Ananya Panday hairstyle a try. The low ponytail, coupled with the cute half up half down bow detailing would take some practice to recreate, but trust us when we tell you it’s worth the effort. We also love the cute hair pins that are so apt for the holiday season.
03. Hair accessories

If you are looking for a minimal hairstyle for an intimate Christmas party, then the OG fashionista of Bollywood, Sonam Kapoor is here to help. We love her simple, straight hair, which she has secured in place with a cute hair accessory. Don’t forget to spritz on some hair spray like the TIGI Bed Head Hard Head Hair Spray to prevent hair static and frizz.

Got long, thick hair? Allow Karisma Kapoor to show you how to style your hair for a chic and sophisticated look this holiday season. A rope braid is a super classy hairstyle that not just keeps your hair away from your face while you eat cake and binge on other holiday food, but is also a great way to flaunt long hair without leaving it open.
