We've reached the holiday season, and what better way to celebrate than by infusing a dose of individuality and flair into your festive look? With the rising trend of alternative hairstyles, break away from the status quo by showcasing your unique style and adding a touch of unconventional charm to your holiday spirit.

If you’re craving a bit of drama and looking to quickly enhance hair length and volume, consider hair extensions! From voluminous halos and volumizers to sleek ponytail additions, these quick & easy transformations are your ticket to instant glamour and hair envy (PSA: you'll receive lots of compliments). Browse the Jon Renau easiTress Collection to find your favorite style.

If you're looking for coverage on top from hairline to crown, consider opting for a hair topper. Toppers transform fine or thinning hair by adding coverage and volume in seconds, and nothing shines brighter than confidence.

Braids, braids, everywhere! Braids are IN this year. Be on top of the trend for your holiday gathering(s) by weaving in this stylish look. Utilize intricate detailing to channel candy cane stripes, snowflake patterns, or a woven wreath. These styles not only look enchanting but also showcase your creativity.

SmartLace Lite wigs are a great option if you choose to wear an updo this year. Each Lite style is lightweight, light hair density, and has a hyper-realistic ear-to-ear lace front, designed specifically for off-the-face hairstyles. You’ll feel confident knowing your secret is safe with us!

We also recommend using a styling product like Jon Renau Holding Spray for synthetic fiber and Versatile 3-Way Hair Spray for human hair. Jon Renau Pick Me Up dry shampoo is another great product to improve grip for any fiber.

Vibrant hair colors are wonderful for a festive look that turns heads. Whether your vibe is winter wonderland or the warmth of a cozy fireplace, consider going bold with vibrant hues. From icy whites, greys and blues like Storm, Sleet and Glacier to fiery reds like our fan-favorite color, Chocolate Cherry, the possibilities are as endless. Explore the Arctic Color Collection.

Opt for an edgy cut or style that breaks away from the norm. Whether you choose a blunt cut A-line style or add texture to your pixie, feel a touch of rebellion in your holiday ensemble. It's not just a hairstyle; it’s a statement, daring the world to see the festive season through a new lens.

For adding texture and sculpting to your synthetic or human hair piece, we recommend Jon Renau Piece Out Fiber Contour Crème. It smells divine and sculpts hair without weighing it down.

Here’s some of our favorite edgy styles...

If you believe in the mantra "the more, the merrier," it's time to explore the world of glitter and glam. Glitter roots are taking center stage, providing a dazzling effect that lights up any holiday gathering. Additionally, metallic hair accents promise to make you the shining star of every festive occasion. Check our easiTinsel clip-in extensions.

As you embark on your alternative holiday hair adventure, don't forget to care for your tresses. Protective measures like heat protectants and gentle removal of temporary braids and clips will keep your biological hair or chosen hairpiece healthy and vibrant throughout the season. Keep these handy cheat-sheets nearby; they’ll be your go-to guides for all of Jon Renau’s wet goods: Human Hair Care or Synthetic Care.

This holiday season, let your hair be the canvas for your festive spirit. Whether you choose extensions, trendy braids, bold colors, edgy cuts, or sparkling glitter, the key is to embrace your unique style with confidence. Unleash your inner stylist, dazzle the season, and make this holiday one to remember with alternative hairstyles that speak volumes without saying a word. Cheers to a season of self-expression and joyful experimentation!
