If you’re like any other Filipina preparing for the holidays, you must have already started thinking about what looks you’ll be wearing for the numerous Christmas parties you’ll be attending. Instead of looking at current trends, why not try some tried and tested vintage hairstyles that will add a touch of glamour to any event!
Veronica Lake Waves
We like: TONI&GUY HAIR STYLING GLAMOUR MOISTURIZING SPRAY (P375.00)A hydrating hair spray used for styling. Gives a glossy, lustrous finish.
Hollywood actress Veronica Lake was known for her beautiful waves on her long, blonde hair. You can accomplish this with a big barrel curling iron and holding spray. Make sure to curl only the bottom of your locks! This style works best for long hair that reaches close to the bra line.
Stepford Wife Hairstyle
We like: TONI&GUY HAIR STYLING PREP VOLUME PLUMPING MOUSSE (P435.00) Lightweight mousse that adds body and bounce to your hair.
Think big headbands and sleek pulled back hair with a bit of body. This may require some mouse to bring up the volume and some teasing once hair is combed back.
Rockabilly Hairstyle
We like: TRESEMME SALON FINISH EXTRA HOLD HAIRSPRAY
(P479.00) A hairspray for maximum hold with extra flyaway control.
Take your bandanas out for a spin and play with this fun updo—just like our October #CalyxtaGirl! The important part of this style is to curl your bangs and make sure they stay that way. Bobbi pins and hairspray are also your best friends.
Mod Hairstyles
We like: TRESEMME HAIR SPRAY EXTRA HOLD 360ML WITH FREE STYLING TOOLS (P530.75) because it comes with all the styling tools you need to make the mod look come together!
Mod hairstyles are known for their vavavoom body and side-swept bangs. You’re going to need mousse, hairspray, and some teasing to make it happen.
