As the biggest party of the year is creeping closer and closer, our attention turns to our New Year’s Eve looks. Whether you’re going to a club event, a fancy dinner, or something more low-key, one thing is for sure, you want to be looking like a million dollars. So here at Voir, we have made your life a lot easier by compiling a list of some beautiful hairstyles that you can rock this New Year’s Eve at any event you may be attending.
Low Messy Bun
A low messy bun is a cute casual hair doo that you can rock this NYE, as it is relatively low maintenance but still looks very sexy when paired with a backless outfit. A low messy bun on NYE is perfect for an array of events and can be jazzed up with the use of some accessories such as sparkly pin clips nestled within the bun. You can choose how messy or neat you would like this look to be by pulling out strands of hair to make it more casual and chicer, or by keeping the majority of the hair tucked neatly away which makes it more sophisticated. The beauty of this hairstyle is that it is super easy to do and only requires minimal equipment and a little time. All you need is a hair tie and bobby pins and some hair spray; this look is super easy to create and is perfect for those who don’t want their hair hanging down throughout the night and getting in the way.
Soft Blow Out
For those of you who love wearing your hair down and enjoy a soft glam look then our next NYE look is perfect for you. A gorgeous soft blowout that is a timeless and irresistible look that never gets old. A soft blowout is ideal for a fancy dinner or a party setting as it provides a glammed-up look and is the cherry on top of any outfit you may be styling. The blowout can be done in a number of ways, you can use a heated brush and rollers, straighteners and rollers or a hair dryer and rolling brush. This hairstyle is very flattering and is one that you’ll for sure get compliments on no matter where you are.
Updo
NYE is a great excuse to style a more volumized hairstyle, and an updo is a perfect look if you’re wanting volume and texture to your hair. This look gives the appearance of thick and bouncy hair and is perfect when you’re going to an event or a party as it is a very dressy hairstyle that would go well with a classy glamorous outfit. To create this look you can curl your hair to add a bounce to the hairstyle or simply have it straight to give the effect of a more sophisticated style. Then simply use a hair tie to partition the hair into sections and overlay the two sections to create a volumized ponytail, you can also use a claw clip to create this form of bounce. Hairspray is essential with this look, and we recommend also using some volumizing spray to really get the most out of this hairstyle and portray a volumised full hair doo.
1920s Slick Back Curls
This look is one that is gaining in popularity recently and we can see why. The gelled curls aesthetic is a very seductive look and would go with a variety of outfits as it can be made casual but can also be dressed up depending on what you wear. To style this look, styling gel is vital, and a styling comb is to get the wave texture that you’re after. The EcoStyle Black Castor and Flaxseed Oil Styling Gel is an amazing gel that has a firm hold on the curls and waves that you’re trying to create and will hold your hairstyle in place for the whole night, so you won’t have to worry about finding a mirror to check your hair. This look echo’s the 1920s Charleston era and brings glamour and edge to any NYE look you’re going for.

Accessorised Hair
If you’re wanting something a little bit quirkier for an NYE look then why not accessorise your hair with some cute clips, hair ties and even bows to help level up your look? Diamonds along the hairline is a gorgeous way to add a little sparkle to your hairstyle and make the look feel more festive. Chunky clips that hold back your side bangs have been a look we’ve seen tending this year and one that could be a cute touch on an NYE outfit as you can have matching ones to the colour scheme of your outfit or simply just sparkly ones to help bring your look alive.
