Looking to spice it up for the NYE countdown? Check out these natural hair styles for a little inspiration.
1. Goddess Braid
Ms Danti always breaks it down. I’ve seen tons of goddess and milkmaid braids on super long natural hair, or with extra hair added in . Here’s a rendition that can be done on shorter, stretched natural hair. All you need is a product for sleeking/holding edges, a moisturizing product, a soft bristle brush, and a few bobby pins. Jazz it up with attention grabbing jewelry, and you’re ready to go!
2. Curly Short Do with Perm rods
This style is so cute and versatile. It can go from 9 to 5 to New Year’s Eve Party with no effort. Perfect for transitioners or naturals with short cuts, this style is perfect for blending multiple textures of hair. All you need is clean hair, moisturizing and hold products, and an assortment of perm rods.
3. Simple Retro Updo
YouTuber Teaundra shows us how to create a quick and easy updo – this style is perfect if you have longer hair and you’re not quite sure how to handle it for the holidays. Styled with a holding gel to slick the hair, moisturizer, and bobby pins, this style is sure to turn heads – especially with super cute accessories added in!
4. Chic Updo
Napturally Chic Jere serves 2 looks on medium length blown out natural hair. All you need are a few scrunchies and bobby pins to transform your blah blowout into haute holiday hair.
5. Curly Twisted Pinup
This super cute updo involves a leave-in styling product, Lottabody (or a setting lotion of your choice), flexi rods, and bobby pins. This style is incredibly versatile and can be replicated on practically any texture and length of hair.
6. Twisted Updo
KG of The KG Lifestyle creates a simple twisted updo that can be done on medium length or longer natural and transitioning hair. She uses the Crème of Nature line, but you can grab any moisturizing and holding products of your choice. This style can be done on any texture of hair, but works best with damp hair.
