Excited for Thursday night festivities? I think the New Year’s Eve party is my favorite of the year. Not only are there plenty of events to jump around to (sick of one party? no problem, head to the next). But it’s also a time where you can really celebrate new beginnings. Out with the old and in with the new!
So, I thought I’d share some hair care tips on my favorite cruelty-free hair products from Paul Mitchell. For those of you who think of Paul Mitchell as an “old-lady” brand. Think again. This line has reinvented itself over the past few years with a variety of products for every hair type and hair style.
Today I’ll focus on their best styling products for creating popular party-hair looks.
Paul Mitchell Hot Off the Press
A styling spray for protecting the hair from hot tools like the curling iron and flat iron. It also provides great flexible hold for great party styles like big loose waves like Jessica Alba is famous for, or a sleek and smooth look like Drew Barrymore loves to rock.
Paul Mitchell Spray Wax
This was the first spray wax I tried years ago when they first came on the market, and I fell in love instantly. It easily adds texture without making the hair greasy or weighing it down. It’s perfect for big hair and messy buns found on the runways this year.
Paul Mitchell Super Clean Extra Hairspray
This firm-hold hairspray locks your style into place and keeps it there for hours, which is exactly what you need as you dance your way to midnight. This one is perfect for creating structured hairstyles, like sculpted updos for fancy black-tie parties. One of my favorite looks this year is the tight french braid updos like Anne Hathaway showed off and the massive chignons like the one Beyonce wore.
