Holiday Hair Starts Now: Your Pre-Party Style Prep Guide

The holiday season is right around the corner—and while you might not be thinking about parties and celebrations just yet, your hair should be. From work gatherings and family dinners to festive nights out, your calendar (and camera roll) will be full before you know it.

And let’s be honest—great holiday hair doesn’t happen last minute. It starts now, with intentional care and smart prep that leaves you feeling confident and camera-ready all season long.

At Hair Creations, we’re helping our guests get a head start on holiday hair with personalized glossing treatments, hydration boosts, and blowout-ready styling support—powered by Aveda’s plant-based care.

Start with a Trim

The quickest way to refresh your look? A trim.
Even if you're growing your hair out, removing dry, split ends will instantly make your hair look healthier and shinier—and help your style hold up better through the busyness of the season.

Fall is also a great time to re-shape your style or add soft layers and face-framing pieces for volume under winter hats or updos.

Add an extra Gloss appointment for That Lit-From-Within Shine

Looking for shine, tone, and softness without fully committing to a colour change?
Aveda glossing treatments are your holiday secret weapon.

These plant-powered toners:

  • Enhance your natural colour or refresh faded tone

  • Add brilliant, light-reflecting shine

  • Seal the cuticle for a silky-smooth finish

  • Rinse out gradually—no harsh grow-out

Glossing is perfect for both colour clients and non-colour guests who want to look polished without the commitment. Ask your stylist to recommend the right tone for your hair and skin tone.

Hydrate Before You Style

When you're heat-styling more often—whether for parties, photos, or events—hydration is everything. Dry, brittle hair won’t hold a curl or blowout the way moisturized hair will.

Our go-to?
Aveda Nutriplenish™ Leave-In Conditioner

This lightweight, nutrient-rich mist:

  • Hydrates and detangles instantly

  • Protects from heat up to 450°F (232°C)

  • Guards against environmental stressors like cold air and static

  • Smells amazing (bonus: it’s also colour-safe and silicone-free)

For added moisture, ask about a Nutriplenish™ or Botanical Repair™ moisture treatment during your next visit.

Plan Your Blowouts + Styling Appointments Early

Want smooth, voluminous hair for a special event—or just a good hair day that lasts for photos and parties?

Our stylists offer professional blowouts that give you long-lasting body, bounce, and shine with minimal heat damage. Planning a sleek pony, soft wave, or classic updo? We’ve got you.

Pro Tip: Book your holiday hair appointments now! December fills up fast, and having your appointments pre-scheduled guarantees you’ll look and feel your best when it counts most.
