Easiest Holiday Braid Hairstyle (EVER)

Are you looking for the easiest holiday braid hairstyle? I’ve got one for you! This is the cutest and the best hairstyle for the holiday.

Easiest Holiday Braid Hairstyle (EVER)

I lean in on this one when I need to because I’m just in love with it! It’s sweet. It’s cute. It’s perfect. When you’re in a jam or just looking for something that you can toss together quickly, this is also a good one.

All you need for this one is 2 hair ties/hair elastics and red and green ribbons. These are the only things that are needed. If you don’t want to use red and green, just use any festive ribbon that you can get your hands on.

Favorite Ribbon To Buy

Here is a GREAT deal on hair ribbons. You get all of this ribbon for only $9.99! You get all the colors… this will work great for you throughout the year.

I shared that ribbon above because in case you don’t have a ribbon on hand, it’s great to know where to get some and I recommend these ribbons.

Step By Step:

1. Pull the hair into a ponytail.

2. Loop a red and green ribbon through the hair tie. I like to measure a long enough piece that would fit through the hair tie and dangle down evenly on each side.

3. Take a red and green section on one side and a red and green section on the other… three-strand braid down the ponytail. You will see the red and green pops immediately!

4. Add a bow on top!
