Hair candy: conditioners, styles, and accessories


Short hair
First add moisture and shine with a natural oil and hair gloss. Finish the look with small, sparkly, faux-gem claw clips, one just above each ear. Or, pull out your favorite silk scarf and fold it lengthwise; wrap it around your hair as a festive and sophisticated headband, with a big bow over one ear or at the nape of your neck.

Medium-length hair
Moisturize. Brush hair straight back with no part. Gather hair from the forehead back to the ears into a high ponytail, leaving the rest of your hair hanging down. Fasten with a metal-free ponytail holder that matches your hair color. Add a small, shiny comb a few inches above each ear. Finish with hair gloss.

Long hair
Moisturize. Brush hair with a part down the middle. Gently guide hair straight down and gather into a ponytail at the nape of the neck. Secure with a covered elastic band. Leave down, or wrap and pin up into a bun. Cover the ponytail band or circle the bun with an elastic beaded bracelet. Finish with a spritz of hair gloss.
