- Hello, everyone
and welcome back to the Adore Beauty YouTube channel.
My name is Amelia
and in today's video,
I am gonna be taking you through some fun hairstyles
for short hair for the holiday season.
So, let's get started.
So, the first hairstyle that we are gonna be doing
is the one that I am currently rocking,
just to make it a little bit easier.
And the main tool that you're gonna be using
for these hairstyles is a hair straightener.
It doesn't have to be Dyson Corrale,
it can be any straightener that you have.
What I first like to do with my hair is separate it.
Depending on how thick your hair is,
you might want to separate it into three sections,
or you can just do two.
So, I am gonna split it back here.
We're gonna take a clip.
So, it's separated there.
And then I split it in the back
and then I'll just pop a clip
just to keep it out of the way.
So, taking the straightener and turning it on.
With this bottom part,
because it is sitting underneath this section,
you don't have to be too specific or precise
in how you're styling it.
You just want to make sure
that you're giving it a little bit of a kink.
Take your straightener,
clamp it down,
and then you're going to turn it,
and then pull it down,
and that's how you get to your first little curl.
And then you're gonna repeat the process
all the way around
and it can start at different heights.
You can just do the ends if you want to.
And then we are going to do the top part.
Okay, and then just give it a little zjoosh.
If you have really fine hair like me,
then you might want to take a texturizing spray
or a dry shampoo.
I am using the O&M Dry Texturizing Spray.
This is called the Desert Dry
and it is also volumizing,
which is amazing.
So, take a little bit of that.
And it just gives your hair some nice body.
That is hairstyle number one.
So, our next hairstyle is
if your hair is a little bit on the greasy side,
and you kind of just want to keep it away from your face.
We're kind of just taking the style
that we've already done,
and then we're basically just pulling it back.
You want to take some bits from the front,
grab your hair,
and you can either use a claw clip.
And I have a whole video
on how to style your hair with claw clips.
You can either just use the clip
to kind of keep your hair back,
like so.
So, it's kind of like away from your face,
except for obviously the face-framing bits,
or can use one of these silk hair ties,
which I love because they don't pull out your hair.
They just hold it back really nicely.
And you can just use that to tie your hair back.
My hair is so short,
so I can't really do a bun,
but I've managed to get it into a little nub.
And that is hairstyle number two.
So, for look number three,
we are going to do
a sixties-inspired, sleek, flipped up look.
So, if your hair is wavy naturally
or if it's been styled in this way like I have done,
you just want to take a hair brush
and brush out that wave.
Then you want to take a comb
that's gonna help you clean up your part.
I always have this little bit at the front
that's just gonna keep going back,
so we'll just leave it there.
Then you can separate your hair again.
You are gonna use your hair straightener for this one.
And then now what we are doing
is essentially straightening the hair.
And before we get to the bottom,
you are going to turn it up
so that you have that little kink.
And if you want to make it more pronounced,
you just go back,
and keep flipping it.
So cute.
And then if you want to give those kinked ends
a little bit more hold
then you can take some hairspray
and just spray the ends.
My hair is so full of product
that it will stay in place.
And then you can either leave it like this
or you can take some hair clips,
and then you can leave it like this.
Or you can take some hair clips,
barrettes, I think they call them,
and then you can just clip your hair back
and wear it like this.
And that is hairstyle number three.
Okay and hairstyle number four.
We are going to be using our straightener again.
You can see how handy this tool is.
Essentially, all we are gonna be doing
is slicking down the ends of the hair
so that we have more of a face-framing, sleek look.
So, where the third hairstyle with the kink
was very quirky and really fun,
this is more sleek
and gives a different vibe to your holiday outfit.
I feel like this would pair really well with a red lip
so that it's like sleek,
very Posh Spice vibes,
like very sleek bob, a red lip,
you know, a little Gucci dress
which I don't own,
but, you know, a girl can dream.
So, nothing too fancy with how we do this.
You can separate your hair
if your hair is thicker.
Mine is not very thick,
so I can get away with just grabbing random bits.
Take your straightener down
and then tuck it inwards.
And grab a comb.
I like to just do this to make sure
that it's nice and sleek and smooth.
And I've gotten all of those wavy bits,
which I have not.
This side is always really wonky
compared to the other side,
but it's fine,
you get the gist.
So, then once that's done,
we are gonna take a smoothing cream
and I like this one from NAK Hair
because it's really lightweight
and it doesn't make my really fine hair
feel too weighed down or greasy.
It's kind of just a moisturising cream.
So, gonna take a little bit of this
and you're just gonna smooth it.
So, now the hair looks extra shiny,
really smooth,
extra hydrated,
and not like I've just gone over it
four different times with a hair straightener.
So, then let's pop a little bit
of a festive lip colour on,
and that is the fourth and final hairstyle.
Okay, that is it, guys.
I hope you enjoyed this video
and you learned some fun ways
to wear your short hair for the festive season.
If I don't see you before Christmas comes around,
have a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year,
and I will see you in another video soon, bye.
