Sideswept pony tail
If youur hair is naturally textured and wavy, opt for a different version of your usual pony tail. Part your fringe to the side and secure with hair gel. Once smooth, gather all of your hair and secure it into a low pony tail.

Retro Waves
Using a smaller curling barrel, curl your hair upwards and outwards to acheive quick and easy retro waves. For added shine, spray your hair do with glossy hairspray.

Sleek Ponytail
If a low ponytail isn't your cup of tea, why not go for a sleek pony tail. Pair it with studded earrings and you're ready to party.

Female “Man Bun”
Yes we are trying our hand at the man bun. This differs from a top knot as the bun is a little smaller and at a higher angle. Tilt your head forward to gather your hair. Twist it into a U formation and secure with a clear elastic and hairspray.

Ribbon
The easiest way to switch up your party hair do is to add a hair accessory like a ribbon. Makes for a great statement piece doesn't it?

Soft waves
Soft waves can be easily achieved using your usual straightener. Section portions of your hair and apply the hot iron. Pull towards an angle and curl inwards to acheive soft straight waves.
8/10
Tight Braids
Tight braids are great for those of us with fine hair. It helps to create the illusion of a full mane. Start by braiding your hair from your crown and pull with a little pressre. Secure with clear elastics.
9/10
Slick side part
If you are dealing with second day hair, a slick side part never fails to solve party hair woes. That ultra slick look is never complete without a bold lip.

High Voluminous Updo
A high voluminous updo helps to draw attention to your facial features and can be done under 2 minutes. Simply gather all of your hair and douse it with dry shampoo. This helps to create required volume making it easier to tease your hair backwards. Pull your hair back at an angle and secure it with a sock bun.
