Super sleek glass hair
1. Kristin Ess 3-in-One Flat Iron
To achieve this modern look, you'll want a flat iron that has a rounded edge instead of a traditional flat edge. This will help to bevel the ends of the hair while eliminating the harsh crease that tends to come with a regular flat iron.
2. Diane Straightening Comb
This little comb is helpful when trying to smooth out those flyaways. You'll want to start from the top at the roots and brush down while following closely with the flat iron.
3. Matrix Biolage Smoothing Cream
Complete the look by using this cream to smooth ends and eliminate flyaways. It's ideal for thicker hair and acts as a protectant against humidity.
4. OGX Argan Oil of Morocco Body Oil Mist
When using this oil, make sure you only use a tiny bit as a finishing touch. Redway recommends adding a small amount to avoid going overboard and wind up with a greasy look.
5. John Frieda Day 2 Revival Wave Refresh Spray
This hairspray is lightweight and will keep your style in place without weighing down your head of hair.
6. Kitsch X Justine Marjan Glam Rhinestone Hair Pin
Add a finishing touch with this ultra-glamorous hair pin. The plated metal hair accessory features letters adorned with rhinestones — perfect for a night out.
The braided bun
1. Scünci No-Slip Grip Headbands
To prep this look, you'll want to start off by pulling hair into a tight bun. Next, take a simple headband and secure your long extensions in the headband.
2. Pro 7 Clip-In Hair Extensions
These gorgeous hair extensions are extremely versatile. If you want a red carpet-worthy look, braid the extensions and wrap them around your original bun to form an intricate braided bun and secure with a few clips.
3. Tresemmé Hair Spray
Finish the look by slicking back your hair and spraying it with hairspray. This one by Tresemmé is sold at multiple retailers and will keep your look in place all day long.
Zazie bun
1. Crochet Box Braid Single Pack
This look is ideal for textured hair and will easily take you from a day style to a night style. Use this box braid pack to add some volume and length to your hair.
2. Synthetic Hair Braided Headband
Add a fun braided hair band for a more festive look. This one from Amazon is under $13 but can go with multiple styles whether you want to wear your hair up or down.
Tuned-up pony
1. Kitsch Rhinestone Snap Hair Clips
Wanting to pull off a pretty pony? Spritz your hairbrush with hairspray so when you're combing your pony in place you can ensure a sleek look. Then, add volume to the pony by back-combing your hair from the inside out and finish the look with a few sparkly clips.
2. Jennifer Behr Bobby Pins
Feeling a classic accessory? You can't go wrong with these gorgeous pearl and rhinestone bobby pins.
3. Perfect Trimmings Ribbon
For a playful look, add some ribbon to your pony. Use an elastic to secure your pony and layer the ribbon over it — then, let the long ribbon flow, intertwine it into a braid or continuously tie it down the pony to create a bubble effect. No matter which style you chose, it's sure to look gorgeous.
