For anyone looking for an easy but glitzy partial do for a New Year`s Eve party here is what I did for my Christmas party.

I have mid-bra length straight hair. I washed it and blow dried it upside down to get a lot of fullness. One dry I left one 2 inch strand on either side of my bangs and then I brushed all of the remaining hair into a high ponytail. I took 1 strand from either side of the ponytail and pinned it to the side. I made the ponytail and wrapped it with a same color elastic band. Then I did a standard 3 strand braid with the hair on either side of the ponytail. I tied sparkly silver ribbon to the top of each strands and braided the ribbon into the 3 strand. I took each finished braid and wrapped them around the top of my ponytail to give it a braided scrunchi look.

I made tiny 3 strand braids in the front by my bangs and braided silver ribbon there as well. I finished off with a dab of silver sparkle hair gel and applied to my ponytail length and around my bangs. It all looked great with my silver top and black velvet skirt. I got a lot of compliments and it was super easy to do. Try it if you have medium to long hair and want something easy you can do at home.

Enjoy.
Cindy
