“I’m loving half-up, half-down at the moment,” says celebrity hairstylist <a href="https://www.instagram.com/cwoodhair/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Christian Wood;elm:context_link;itc:0" class="link ">Christian Wood</a>. "Even though it’s been around forever, the trend is definitely leaning more towards a <a href="https://www.glamour.com/story/quiet-luxury-hair?mbid=synd_yahoo_rss" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:quiet luxury;elm:context_link;itc:0" class="link ">quiet luxury</a> version." Instead, Wood recommends ditching the extensions and opting for a more effortless take on the look with a topknot. “The vibe is less pop princess with overly thick extensions and a high ponytail and more of a model off-duty look so it feels effortless and casual but still polished.” Plus, it will keep your hair out of your face all night long.

The key is to style your bob well for a sleek look.” He recommends using a heat tool like the <a href="https://www.sephora.com/product/shark-r-smoothstyle-tm-heated-comb-straightener-smoother-P507817" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Shark SmoothStyle;elm:context_link;itc:0" class="link ">Shark SmoothStyle</a> to dry and smooth your hair but still maintain volume at the root.

When all else fails, a classic blowout will always be party-ready. “To achieve a big salon blowout that looks like it's been slept on and feels slightly effortless and undone with subtle texture, I rely on old-school <a href="https://www.glamour.com/story/everything-you-need-to-know-about-velcro-hair-rollers?mbid=synd_yahoo_rss" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:velcro hair rollers;elm:context_link;itc:0" class="link ">velcro hair rollers</a> after the drying process,” says Wood. “I simply begin by adding the roller to hair, spritz with hairspray and then leave for half an hour to cool; then finally take the rollers out and spray dry texture spray to keep volume and achieve the desired effect.”
Go full glam with shiny and long waves. "Waterfall waves scream luxury and are great for long hair wearers who want a glamorous and polished vibe," says Wood. “It’s all about shiny, frizz-free polished waves for this look." Protect strands from cold weather to keep hair in top shape. “A good <a href="https://www.glamour.com/gallery/best-hair-masks-for-dry-damaged-hair?mbid=synd_yahoo_rss" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:hair mask;elm:context_link;itc:0" class="link ">hair mask</a> before styling to add shine and softness is a must-have.
