With holidays just around the corner, a girl has to do everything she can in advance to look as great and rested on the important day. Especially if you're going home for Thanksgiving, and there's a good chance you'll meet your high school nemesis, who in fact married the guy you were secretly loved from distance for ages...

Anyhows, you might as well start with your hair. Although it would be perfect to get a professional stylist to do it, this is time for a reality check - there's no way your hairstyle is going to survive a good night's sleep and a plain cram. So, get a haircut if you need one, but start thinking abut doing your hair with your two hands.

I found really nice step by step instructions for three gorgeous holyday hairstyles which are easy o make and will make you look stunning! Try the Sophisticated Chignon, the Tousled Flip or the Downtown Updo (my favorite!)

If you'd like your hair down, but still looking gorgeous, check out my hairstyle tutorial. And remember, whatever happens, you can always make a ponytail.
