This hairstyle involves weaving red and white ribbons through French braids to mimic the classic candy cane pattern. It’s ideal for kids with medium to long hair and adds a festive touch to any Christmas outfit.

Frosty’s Twinkling Topknot

For a look that’s as whimsical as it is elegant, the Frosty’s Twinkling Topknot features a high bun adorned with glittering hair accessories like stars and snowflakes. This hairstyle is best for kids with at least shoulder-length hair and works great with both straight and curly textures.

Practical Tip: Secure the topknot with a strong but gentle elastic band, and finish with a spritz of the Garnier Fructis Style Sleek & Shine Anti-Humidity Hairspray to add shine and reduce frizz.

The Elves’ Braided Crown is a charming hairstyle that circles the head with a thick Dutch braid, resembling a crown. This style is versatile and suits children with long hair. It’s especially beautiful when accented with green and red hair beads.

Practical Tip: Use a smoothing serum such as John Frieda Frizz Ease to keep the braid sleek and in place all day.

Angelic Halo Curls

Angelic Halo Curls are soft, bouncy curls that frame the face beautifully, giving the appearance of a halo. This hairstyle is great for kids with natural curls or can be created with a gentle curling iron for those with straight hair.

Practical Tip: Protect the hair while enhancing the curls by applying SheaMoisture Coconut & Hibiscus Curl Enhancing Smoothie before styling.

Santa’s Little Helper Tail

Santa’s Little Helper Tail features a cheerful, high ponytail wrapped in green and red ribbon, finished with a jingle bell at the tip. This fun and easy hairstyle is perfect for active kids and adds a playful element to any festive gathering.

Practical Tip: To prevent the ponytail from sagging, use a sturdy hair tie like Goody Ouchless Elastics, and secure the ribbon with small bobby pins hidden under the hair.
