Create Fabulous and Fierce Holiday Hairstyles with Tips From Motions® Celebrity Stylist Ursula Stephen Holiday gatherings and festivities call for versatile and vivacious hairstyles. Whether you need to dazzle on the dance floor or stand out at a dinner party, get camera-ready by creating these holiday looks with Motions®. Motions Celebrity Stylist, Ursula Stephen, lends her tips for achieving fabulous and fierce looks. Glamorous, Loose Waves Evoke old-Hollywood, holiday glamour with a deep side part and soft, smooth, effortless waves. “The key to this glamorous look is creating a balance between the soft curls and polished part. It’s all about maximum glamour with minimal fuss,” says Stephen. Follow these easy steps for beautiful, retro waves: 1. Begin by working Motions Foaming Wrap Lotion through damp hair and then blow-dry with a round brush to create body and movement. 2. Then, using a medium barrel curling iron, begin curling the hair in small sections – spritz each curl as you go with Motions Light Hold Working Spritz. 3. After you complete the entire head, brush curls out with a paddle brush and style to your preference. 4. Finally, set the look while still maintaining movement with Motions Hold & Shine Styling Spray. Sleek, Chic Top-Knot A sleek, chic top-knot is the perfect combination of fashion-forward and classic elegance – the perfect accessory for that knock-out party dress. “Pulling hair away from your face and shoulders allows you to show off your neckline and collarbone,” says Stephen. Create this quick coiffure in just a few simple steps: 1. Start with clean dry hair (flat ironing is optional) and in quick, even strokes, spray Motions Oil Sheen & Conditioning Spray to add luster and shine. 2. Brush hair upwards into a ponytail and secure with a hair band. 3. Next, curl only the ends of the ponytail and then gently brush them out. If you have fine hair, you can then tease the base of the ponytail to create a foundation for the knot. 4. Holding the ponytail in one hand, twist around the hair band to form a bun/knot and secure with bobby pins. 5. Once all ends are secured, hold the look in place with Motions Light Hold Working Spritz. 6. To finish the look, tidy up any fly-aways along the hairline with a small brush and a bit of Motions Shine Enhancing Pomade. Sweet, Side-Swept Chignon For a soft and flirty style, try this classic up-do with an asymmetrical twist. Ultra-feminine and sophisticated, it’s the perfect look for holiday photos. Simply follow these steps and smile: 1. Start by applying Motions Light Styling Foam to towel-dried hair and then blow or air-dry completely. 2. When fully dry, spritz hair with Motions Light Hold Working Spritz to provide control for styling. 3. Then, using a 1-inch curling iron, curl 2-inch sections of hair and secure each “pin curl” to the scalp using bobby pins – continue until the entire head is complete. 4. Let the curls set for about 20 minutes, remove pins and brush all of your hair to the side that will feature the chignon. 5. Depending on the length of your hair, you can either gather it into a hair band OR pin it. 6. Next, mold and pin the curls into creating a beautiful, flirty shape. 7. Finish the look and add brilliant shine by spraying Motions Hold & Shine Styling Spray all over the hair.
