Tis the season of head-turning adornments. And while frosted windowpanes, twinkling evergreens, and hostess-worthy tablescapes offer easy backdrops that make the holidays sparkle that much brighter, a quick look at Instagram proves why the best way to shine is with an unexpected take on hair accessorizing at mane-level. Just ask rapper Shayna McHayle (aka Junglepussy), who posted a scene-stealing series of pom-pom ponytails sectioned off with colorful bands reminiscent of candy-coated treats.
Light-catching embellishments found favor with Gigi Hadid, who secured her baby blonde strands with a well-placed gilded clip, and Taylor Hill, whose Miu Miu headband combined equal doses of decadence and whimsy. And for Beyoncé, extreme glamour is synonymous with the season: the pop star s down-to-there crimped ponytail exuded characteristic above-the-neck drama and doubled as a swingy addition to December s beckoning dance floors. As for sister Solange Knowles s holiday endeavors? Her lean toward festive baubles began with peroxide baby braids wrapped in beaded carmine red that channeled just the right dose of sugar and spice.
